Beautiful shrine and adjacent holy well of St Winifrede, that continues to be blessed with an air of sanctity and holiness. The main buildings are medieval and the well water has healing properties. There is a shop and refreshment room nearby with a car park across the road. Pilgrims can take away as much well water as required, providing they bring their own container(s). This is the only holy well in the country with and unbroken tradition of pilgrimage since the fifth century. I can thoroughly recommend a visit.
3. Plas Teg Jacobean Mansion
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 74 reviews
A magnificent Grade 1 Listed 17th Century Jacobean Mansion brought back to its former glory. The recent restoration has enabled us a fascinating chance to truly step back in time.Built in 1610, this stunning house has over 400 years of history; deaths, dirty deeds, suicides, it has seen the lot! It is a former court house for the "Hanging Judge Jeffreys" and it is said some of his victims still haunt the house!The house is open for tours on a Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday at 2pm & 3pm. It is said to be the most haunted house in Wales so for those who dare, come and join the Paranormal team on a Saturday night on a hunt for the spirits that inhabit the house!

We arrived during the afternoon, and parking was available right outside the entrance. Parking wasn't too expensive (£2 for 2-3 hours) and was free entry into the park! We enjoyed walking up the cliff, and seeing the amazing views at the top which was worth the walk! The woodlands had a variety of wildlife present such as squirrels and various birds. The walk around the river is highly recommended. We would definitely return if we find ourselves in the area again.

I have visited here several times and it still remains very popular for everyone. Plenty of parking spaces,but it can get busy during holiday time. There is a lovely visitors centre which has a map of Wepre Park,public toilets and a cafe which serves hot and cold food and ice cream.You can sit outside the information centre with your dog on a lead.There is also some benches and rocks to sit on under the trees.There are picnic tables near by. Plenty of well worn paths leading you in various directions around Wepre Park.There is also a boarded path which is great for anyone using pushchairs,you can walk down to the river and dogs and children can have a paddle. Lots of birds and wildlife can be heard as you walk through the Brook walk. There are plenty of benches to sit and relax on along the way. You can also take a visit up to Ewloe Castle or take the many steps up to what was an old golf course.It is now a wildlife area full of bullrushes and wild flowers.You then follow the path through woodland to the Rosie Pool which is popular with people who want to fish. You can walk around Rosie Pool,but if you have a dog you must keep the dog on a lead. There is also a lovely little garden behind the visitors centre which the staff/volunteers do keep tidy.Although there was a few bottles and cans thrown in the small pond,lots of wildlife to see and benches to sit and relax. There is also a large playground for children,teenagers and adults and a skate park near to the car park.There is so much for children to see and do here and on a nice day it is nice to take a picnic and relax. The park is very popular with walkers,joggers,mountain bikers,dog walkers and families but also nice if you want a relaxing stroll on your own. I would definitely recommend a visit.

Fantastic 360 views from the top of the highest hill in the Clwydian range. Car park £2 all day and toilets, picnic tables and children’s play area so great day out. Took us 40 mins to get to the Jubilee tower at the top and with circular walk via Offa’s Dyke oath, our visit was 2 hours total. Be warned though this is a popular place especially on sunny days

We stopped in a caravan park only 6 mins away from the Beach. The Beach was fairly quite, not overcrowded and lots of space. It was clean and well looked after. We even did nice a walk through the sand dunes a few times. Just by the Beach three is a chip shop, a bakery, resturant, ice cream shop and a souvenir shop with the usual bucket and spade etc. Talacre beach feels like a secret hidden treasure... so beautiful and peaceful too.

Whatever the weather DangerPoint has something for everyone. We are an independent charity based in Talacre, North Wales. Open local School holidays, please telephone and check before travelling just in case we are fully booked. Our award winning interactive centre is designed like a film set where you can explore familiar settings like the home, beach, countryside, playground and farm, seeking out the dangers & answering detective questions to complete the Danger Detective Quest. With free parking and low entrance fees, this is a great family activity which makes learning about safety FUN! You can also talk to our friendly alien K-os, who comes to life on screens around the centre. Fully interactive, visitors can speak to him as they complete the Danger Detective Quest. During the Summer holidays we also have a Treasure Hunt and a Craft room ready for artists to paint various pottery or make crafts or Sand art. Prices in the Craftroom start from as little as £2.

Visited with my husband and 4 and half year old. What a unique place. Your given a work book to play detective and make your way through a variety of different themed spaces - all educational . EG road safety, internet safety , kitchen safety , bullying etc You have to do various activities or watch short videos in each section then answer questions in your work book. We had the added bonus of it being Easter and there being hidden eggs you had to find in each area to claim a chocolate prize . Although most of it went over my little boys head he still loved it as we did.
