  • Contemporary park in a peaceful and scenic north Wales setting
  • In green countryside 20 minutes from the coast at Talacre
  • Local village a couple of minutes’ drive; three pubs within 1.5 miles
The ‘Haulfryn’ in Haulfryn Caravan Park means ‘Sunny Hill’ in Welsh, and while bright weather can’t be guaranteed at this modern site opened in summer 2019, a scenic and peaceful hol is most definitely on the cards. As well as having new facilities – the owners have spent several months getting the site fully shipshape for guests – Haulfryn Caravan Park's also well placed: long walks and excellent pubs are close by and it’s easy to get out and about by car as it’s a five-minute drive from the A55. For those keen on hitting the road to check out the Flintshire and north Wales highlights of countryside and coast, Talacre is 20 minutes’ drive away for bathing at Barkby beach or birdwatching at Hilbre Islands; the resort town of Rhyl is half an hour away and the long, wide North Shore beach of Llandudno is 40 minutes. Heading inland, it’s also 40 minutes to both Wrexham and Chester for city times, and 20 minutes to the fine town of Flint on the River Dee. So that’s the sights sorted… but how about the facilities once you’re back on base? Haulfryn Caravan Park has all the essentials including showers and toilets, disabled facilities, chemical disposal and a drying room. Other amenities are close by too: the local village is a couple of minutes’ drive away, Holywell is 10 minutes and – perhaps most importantly – three pubs are within a mile and a half.

Liked: We arrived an hour early, but we were greeted with a smile and a coffee. Didn't have to wait long before we had the keys and settled into our beautiful lodge. It was clean, comfy and had everything we needed. The hot tub was so relaxing , it was under cover with lighting which was lovely at night. Looking forward to staying again!!!

Disliked: Nothing to dislike

Lodge (hot tub, no pets)

Liked: Everything that we needed was available. Comfortable and the owners checked we had all. Even supplied more bedding. Lots of towels provided, kitchen well equipped. Wifi was an added bonus kept the kids entertained! Owners very accommodating.

Disliked: Steps to accommodation needed to be the other side by the hot tub as if you didn’t take easy slip on shoes you needed to walk over gravel. Had the steps been by the hot tub you could easily walk back to the accommodation without footwear. The site was a bit of a building site when we were there with work carrying on until gone 8pm which was a little off putting. With all the materials in view, shame they weren’t placed down the side of the new buildings going up to we had a nicer view when sat outside. Where are the recycling bins? We found one large bin close to us and no recycling.

Liked: Our stay was out of this world and have never been made to feel welcome somewhere as much as Kirsty made us feel. It was our anniversary weekend and when we arrived, there was a lovely card waiting for us. Such a nice gesture. The most lovely place to stay. I wish we had booked longer. Will 100% be going again. Thanks once again Richard and Kirsty x

Local attractions

Along with beaches, Flintshire and its surrounds have their fair share of top towns and trekking: head to Holywell – known as the Lourdes of Wales for its St Winifrede’s Well shrine and chapel – to see sights like Basingwerk Abbey’s ruins or to wander through Greenfield Valley Heritage Park. The town of Mold, also 10 minutes’ drive, is your spot for the Grade I-listed St Mary’s Church and a motte and bailey castle. Hike across the limestone cliffs of Bryn Alyn here or amble over to Prestatyn, the seaside town leading to the start of Offa’s Dyke Path (20 minutes away), for saunters on a section of this 177-mile-long trail. If you’re wanting to seriously work those legs, the highest peak in Wales is at Snowdonia National Park 45 minutes’ drive away. But not to worry if you’re already too shattered after all the other strolls: a train’s on hand to whisk you straight up to the top.
