  • Within an hour's drive of ski centre and two Zip World centres
Whopping big fields and phenomenal views in Flintshire? Whoop a big yes please to Ynyshir Farm, a small but supremely spacious site with sea vistas, 10 minutes’ drive from Talacre on the north Wales coast. Look one way towards the Dee Estuary and the Irish Sea; look the other and it’s all green fields giving way to hills and the mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia) beyond… this really is a cracking spot. Being on a former farm, there’s bags of space to stretch out and run about… or stretch out and do nothing, except watching the clouds scudding across the sky or the sun setting over the waves… Firepits are available to hire for outdoor cookouts and late-night natters: bring the dog along to sit around the fire too, as they'll be made most welcome on site. They’re welcome too on Talacre beach 10 minutes’ drive away, where shifting dunes, wide sands and a 17th-century lighthouse make a mighty good introduction to the area. If you like a livelier seaside experience, then Rhyl, with its amusements and aquarium, miniature railway and botanical gardens is 20 minutes away.

Local attractions

Forever being invaded and defended, it’s castle country round here: 12th-century Denbigh Castle (20 minutes' drive) is at the ghostly ruin end of the scale, while mighty Conwy (40 minutes) looks like it’s still ready to see off a rebel army. If you’re into active stuff, try whizzing down the slopes of Llandudno Ski and Snowboard Centre (40 minutes) or whizzing at great height and velocity down the wires at one of the Zip World sites: Betws-y-Coed and Penrhyn Quarry are both an hour away. Brought your walking boots? There’s an easy but rewarding trail to the waterfall at Dyserth,10 minutes away; for longer wanders in Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, it’s an hour’s journey to the start of trails up Carnedd Llewelyn and to Aber Falls. (If you want the heights without straining the hooves, loaf over to Llanberis, an hour away and take the Snowdon Mountain Railway to the top of Wales’ highest peak; you could always walk back down…) If you like a bit of wildlife with your walks, trips up and around the Great Orme headland just above Llandudno (40 minutes) are often likely to be accompanied by sightings of sea birds and even seagoing porpoises. If you want to meet some more exotic beasts close up, it’s a similar distance to the sea lions, sea eagles and Sumatran tigers of the Welsh Mountain Zoo.

What customers say

This well-kept, serene campground offers spacious sites and lovely ocean views. Clean facilities, including a modern restroom/shower building, are frequently praised. It's conveniently located near the beach and local shops. Some guests noted occasional noise and wanted more restrooms/showers during busy periods, but the owner has addressed cleanliness and improvements.

Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked My family had the best time here. The view was amazing as we had a full sea view! The toilets and wash areas were nice and clean and the family rooms were pristine! It does state on the website no camp fires but we’re allowed fire pits which was great. It’s a little bit of a walk from the tents to the toilets but was manageable! We will definitely be returning.

Disliked Could do with a playground for children as there’s not much for kids to do there.

Liked Super views and really modern toilet/shower block. Very close to the beach and an array of pubs/resturants - great location .

Disliked Lack of toilet roll at times but renewed every morning ( take your own ) if it's busy 😆

Liked ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a great stay at Ynyshir Farm Campsite! The location is perfect for walkers and cyclists – just a lovely walk to Talacre Beach and plenty of fantastic coastal cycle routes leading to Ffrith Beach, Prestatyn, Rhyl, and beyond.

The facilities were excellent, with toilets kept very clean throughout our stay. Communication with the owners was easy and straightforward, and the campsite itself is great value for money.

A couple of tips for future visitors: there are pubs nearby, but many didn’t serve food, and we found places around Talacre Beach closed by 8pm, so it’s best to bring your own supplies as we didn’t see shops nearby. That said, catching the sunset on the beach made up for it – absolutely stunning!

We stayed over the August Bank Holiday weekend and had a sea-view pitch, we’ll definitely be back. A really enjoyable stay in a lovely site that allows fire pits.

Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Just a fantastic site. The location is great with fantastic views. Close to Prestatyn for shops, close to Talacre beach. The fields are super well maintained with excellent drainage so now swampy pitches. Toilet block is very nice with excellent showers and theyre very clean. Paul is super helpful.
