  • Peaceful rural park in St Asaph
  • Four miles from the beaches and funfairs of Rhyl and Prestatyn
  • Excellently-kept amenities and plenty of tourist info on site
Did you know that - thanks to the Diamond Jubilee of good Queen Lilibet - that UK got three brand new cities in 2012? One of the newbies, St Asaph in Denbighshire, is home to just three thousand people if you’re curious about this tiny gem, come to Penisar Mynydd Caravan Park, where you’ll be perfectly placed to join in any right royal knees-up that might still be going on in St Asaph, and to visit the classic Welsh coastal resorts of Prestatyn and Rhyl. Penisar Mynydd Caravan Park is a peaceful rural site with well-kept pitches and with amenities kept to high standards by the friendly helpful team.There’s a great range of tourist information available on site to help you make the most of the local area. You’ll find a handful of shops, including a convenience store, butcher and chemist in the nearby village of Dyserth (don’t miss out on a stop at the stunning Dyserth waterfalls while you’re there).

Danielle M.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Nothing

Disliked What a horrible site! Arrived and was firstly welcomed with cctv cameras everywhere like big brother, checked in and was told to park in the middle of the small field as ehu campers were around the edge we drove round and its was absolutely ridiculous tents side by side not even enough room to sit out on your camping chairs. It was like a festival and takes everything you go camping for away. We left without even getting out of the car and luckily fount an alternative site about 50 mins away

Needs pitch markings and more electricity points so not squashed

Power optional grass tent campsite

Liked Very quiet and peaceful campsite.
Lovely facilities. Very helpful reception. Lovely location.

Disliked Being charged £9 for my mother and father in law to visit us on the site for 2 hours. No markings for pitches on the site so when it became busy on the Saturday we had a caravan parked either side of us within a couple of meters so became very squashed, no where then to park our car so had to park it right out front of our tent door.

Highly recommend

Local attractions

For families, the safe sandy beaches, funfairs and plentiful tourist attractions of Rhyl and Prestatyn - just four miles away - will no doubt be top of the list. The attractive seaside resorts of Llandudno and Colwyn Bay are also within an easy drive. Fishing fans can try the trout farm ten minutes up the road from Penisar Mynydd Caravan Park, or head into St Asaph to fish the River Elwy; walkers can saunter through a superb selection of scenery, including nearby Offa’s Dyke, or drive to Snowdonia National Park and hike the mountains and lakes; and golfers will also find that this area suits them to a tee, with a huge choice of courses including Caerwys, Meliden, Rhuddlan, Rhyl, Holywell and Prestatyn. Other top picks for sightseeing include the village of Betws-Y-Coed and the neighbouring Swallow Falls; the imposing remains of Rhuddlan Castle; and seventeenth century Bodrhyddan Hall, where a 3,000-year-old mummy lurks among the armour and period furniture...
