Caerwys in Flintshire, North Wales is a small town but with a lively and vibrant community. Having been granted a Royal Charter in 1290 it is one of the smallest “towns” in Great Britain. Although being just under two miles from the A55 Expressway the town is often passed-by unnoticed by travellers, yet it is surrounded by areas of outstanding natural beauty with stunning views across mountains and valleys. Its proximity to the A55 North Wales Expressway makes it an ideal location for touring North Wales including the beautiful Conwy Valley, Conwy Castle and to the East the English Border lands including the ancient walled town of Chester.
Despite having a small population Caerwys has three public houses, two with restaurants, a general store, delicatessen, two butchers, a baker, (no candle stick makers), a pharmacy and newsagent, hairdresser and garage. It also benefits from a Golf course, tennis court, children’s playground and a bowling green.

We are very pleased to announce that Caerwys View is now open for 12 months! This will mean that the Park will be open 12 months of the year for holiday use so you can enjoy endless holidays all year round.

Here at Caerwys View we would like to extend a warm invitation to you to come and visit the park and to view the caravans, and Lodges that we have to offer.

We also have some fantastic Easter promotions for you to take advantage of on both new and pre-owned holiday homes.

We are a family owned business so you can be assured of a warm welcome and an enjoyable time for you and your family.

Caerwys is mentioned in the Domesday Book as a small market town. The well-maintained church is dedicated to St. Michael. It has two parallel naves. The oldest part of the building is a stone tower whose base is said to have been part of a Roman observation tower. A short, informative booklet about the church was written in 1936 and updated in 1995. As well as being surrounded by areas of outstanding natural beauty and views across mountains and valleys, the centre of Caerwys has been designated a conservation area.

A famous native of Caerwys was actress Myfanwy Talog, who is commemorated by a slate plaque on the cottage where she was born. Talog never forgot her origins, and succeeded in persuading the BBC to bring the Radio One roadshow to Caerwys in the 1980s.

Caerwys and Philadelphia have important historical connections. Local doctor, Thomas Wynne, sailed to America on the ship Welcome in 1682 with William Penn. Wynne was one of the founding fathers of Philadelphia and became the first speaker of the Provisional Assembly, as well as a provincial judge. The original street plan of Philadelphia was designed on the street pattern of Caerwys. Welsh names crop up everywhere, and several buildings built in Philadelphia resemble buildings in the Caerwys area, some of which still stand today.
