Dolphin is a small hamlet with its own pub, located between Holywell and Mold. Standing on the edge of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, between the northern edge of the Clwydian Hill Range and miles of sandy beaches along the North Wales coast, Dolphin is also close to St Winifred’s Well, the Milwr Tunnel, Greenfield Valley Heritage Park and some superb golf courses. Nearby are Mold, Denbigh and Ruthin, with excellent shops and craft centres, and Prestatyn, whose Blue Flag beach provides miles of golden sand for bathing, watersports or fishing. This is an ideal location for exploring the attractions of North Wales, with access to superb walking, mountain biking, horse riding and birdwatching amidst the breathtaking scenery of the Clwydian Hill Range and Offa’s Dyke Pathway, and with Halkyn Mountain less than a mile away. Visit the medieval city of Chester with its famous zoo, the Welsh Mountain Zoo at Colwyn Bay, Lakes Brenig, Bala and Vyrnwy, Victorian Llandudno, the castles at Flint, Rhuddlan and Conwy and the Snowdonia National Park, all within easy reach.
