WHAT’S THE BUZZ?
This smart, comfortable and welcoming four-star hotel commands wonderful coastal and mountain views from its position on Barkby Beach, overlooking the Irish Sea. The fact that The Beaches Hotel, Prestatyn is just 75 minutes from Manchester by car and under three hours from London by train only partly explains its charm and popularity.

Expect hearty breakfasts and relaxed dining in their Promenade Bistro | Bar. You’ll experience great service from a friendly team, who offer that wonderful combination of efficiency and warmth.

Step directly from the hotel onto mile upon mile of sandy beaches, protected dunes and a promenade perfect for walking or cycling. Prestatyn’s proximity to the A55 also makes this an ideal base for exploring the region’s castles, historical villages, golf courses, and Snowdonia National Park.

Prestatyn is firm favourite with those looking for that quintessential seaside holiday with the joyful pleasures of ice creams, crazy golf and chasing waves barefoot. For those brave enough to swim, friendly lifeguards man Blue Flag Prestatyn Central Beach from mid-May to early September. Or retreat to The Beaches Hotel swimming pool and jacuzzi.

WHAT ARE THE ROOMS LIKE?
The Beaches Hotel has 79 comfortable bedrooms, styled individually to complement fantastic views of the Welsh Clwydian Range or Barkby Beach. Each room has its own character and charm with modern en-suite bathrooms and tea/coffee making facilities.

BEST SEA VIEW?
For peaceful sweeping views of Barkby Beach and the Irish Sea choose a Superior Room with Sea View.
