About this property

Applejacks Orchard is a lovely, studio-style holiday hut nestled on the outskirts of Holywell, a bustling market town near the River Dee in Flintshire.

Park up outside your charming new home-from-home, taking a moment to appreciate your tranquil new surroundings before heading indoors. Inside, discover an immaculate, well-appointed studio-style living space, comprising an elegant double bed, an amply-equipped kitchen, dining table with seating for two, and a sitting area with corner sofa, TV, and an electric fireplace where you and your loved one can curl up in the evenings to enjoy a movie marathon. . When you and your partner grow tired, be sure to refresh with a revitalising soak in the sleek freestanding bath on your way to catching a well-earned rest ahead of a brand-new exciting day. When you're ready, set out on foot to explore the local area. The shortest of walks will bring you to your nearest convenience store, Costcutter, where you can load up on homely essentials to ease your stay, whilst in the opposite direction, The Stamford Gate Hotel houses your nearest bar and restaurant when you fancy a break from cooking. For a day out, jump in the car and venture into the heart of Holywell, starting your itinerary with a spot of tea and a light bite at Kassidy’s Tea Room or Marmalade before continuing onto the sites of Greenfield Mill and the Pen Y Maes Woods. After Holywell, carry on north parallel to the coast to reach Talacre, a seaside village where eager tourists flock to spend time spotting wild birds within the RSPB Point of Ayr - Dee Estuary, snap photos of the historic Point of Ayr Lighthouse, or simply delight with a day spent on the golden sands of Talacre Beach. Make memories in North Wales when you book a stay at Applejacks Orchard.

The market town of Holywell in North Wales takes its name from the town’s most famous attraction, the 7th century St Winefride’s Well, one of the Seven Wonders of Wales. Holywell boasts over 60 listed buildings, with a variety of late Georgian and Victorian buildings on offer, along with a pedestrianised shopping centre, pubs, restaurants and an open-air market every Thursday. Just one mile away are the 12th century ruins of Basingwerk Abbey within the grounds of the Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, with its museum. There are many lovely walking routes in the area, including the open common area at Halkyn Mountain, Pennant Way, Offa’s Dyke and The Welsh Coastal Path. Within driving distance is the pretty Market town of Mold, which holds an outdoor market on a Wednesday and Saturday. The historic city of Chester, with its famous Rows, Roman Walls, racecourse, zoo, shops and restaurants is just over the border in England. The beautiful Welsh Coast is easily reached with the little seaside village and beach of Talacre only a short drive away. Prestatyn, Rhyl, and of course Llandudno are also easily accessible, together with the majestic mountains of Snowdonia. There are also some beautiful gardens to visit, Ness on the Wirral, and Bodnant Gardens in Snowdonia to name just two.

    The host Diane was fantastic and the accommodation was out of this world. Both the inside and outside area's are spectacular, Diane and her husband have catered for your every need. On arrival we were greeted with a handwritten card welcoming us to the cabin and inside the fridge was some delicious goodies, including a bottle of wine and a few treats for our dog. We made full use of all the facilities which included the barbecue area and the relaxing hot tub. The decor was beautiful and you can clearly see that this a labour of love for Diane, the whole area, both inside and outside, was immaculate and spotless. Would we stay here again? Absolutely!!
