6 Free Days Out and Things to Do With Kids in Flintshire /Sir y Fflint
I'm still adding to this list, so keep checking back, please get in touch if you've got any hidden gems to recommend, or if you have a picture to replace any that I'm missing (ie the places that have words). As a thank you, I'll send a 20% money off voucher to spend in the shop for anything that gets used.
I've tried to make sure that all the details on here are up to date, but please do double check on the websites I've linked to before you travel in case anything has changed. Although I'd love to be able to travel to every place on here, time and practicalities dictate that I've sourced a lot of information from 3rd parties so some information might be incorrect (Please let me know if you spot anything that is so that I can amend it).
Especially important: double check parking costs to avoid any nasty surprises on a day out that was supposed to be cheap, and obviously, be careful if you're visiting places with kids, especially where the terrain is dangerous (ruins, cliffs, beaches, slippy paths etc).
Happy adventuring!
Some lovely walks, with great views of the cliffs. Wooded gorges, and open grasslands, the River Alyn, bridges and viewpoints. There's a water mill near the visitor centre.
2000 acres of upland landscape, this country park forms part of the Clwydian Range. You can choose between summiting the hill, or easier walks. There's a playground and picnic benches near the carpark, as well as a map.
A sandy beach, with a grade 2 listed lighthouse built in 1776 (now a residential property). Bordered by the dunes, known for rare natterjack toads.
160 acres of green space, with plenty to explore including Old Hall Gardens, a waterfall, woodland walks, a playground, a skatepark, a pond, and Ewloe Castle.
Beautiful ruins made famous in Shakespeare's Richard III, it was completely built by 1284. Great views from the top, there is a coastal walk next to it if you fancy extending the actitivity.
Walk or cycle through the woods, looking out for wildlife as well as ruined buildings, the remains of a shepherd's cottage, a fairy glen, and a replanted orchard.
You know what the kids would love to be filling in as you're exploring new places? An epic activity pack! And it should be filled with easy activity ideas, and stickers, and personalised!
