The idyllic village of Talacre rests on the north coast of Wales in Flintshire. The village is known for its famous beach, sitting just across the River Dee from the Wirral from the English/Welsh border. Boasting miles of golden sand backed by dunes, this dog-friendly beach offers a plenty of space for holidaymakers – you might even get the beach all to yourself! Talacre’s most obvious feature is the Point of Ayr Lighthouse which dates back to 1776. Within the village there are two pubs, the popular Point Bar & Restaurant and the Lighthouse Inn, along with a post office that sells the essentials. The area around the beach, Gronant Dunes and Talacre Warren is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (sssi) with an rspb reserve, home to rare species including the natterjack toad, whilst the nearby Dee Estuary is a haven for wintering birds.

Very clean & nice extras such as body wash & hair products in the showers. A well equipped kitchen, with washing machine & dryer if needed. Bifold doors opened up the area to the garden so those in the hot tub could chat with those in the house, it felt as though everyone was outside. The garden was enclosed so safe for children & dogs. Although we hardly used the TV, there was a huge one in the lounge & a lovely electric fire which had pretty variable lighting. The hot tub was a big hit, the younger adults were happy to sit in with a glass & chat & chill & the older ones to relax & get the heat on the âoldâ bones ! I would definitely recommend this lovely house.

. the host was amazingly helpful. The property was clean and beautiful, plenty of space too and had a well enclosed garden for our pooch. It was fairly equipped with the basics and also had a guy come round every morning around 7am to do the maintenance of the hot tub. However we did have a couple points for us such as the beds were way too hard, just could not get comfortable. And there was food left in one of the cupboards and in the freezer. It wouldn't stop us from coming again ( if mattresses were a little softer) as it is a lovely place and everything is so convenient and easy to get too, the beach was stunning and literally a 5 minute walk. Would advise bringing cash as some shops don't accept card or there is a limit ie £4. So yes great place to come and relax.
