The Lodge @ Racecourse House

The Lodge @ Racecourse House is situated in the picturesque countryside in the small hamlet of Babell in Flintshire. This property boasts a gas fire, hot tub, rooftop veranda and open-plan living – with off-road parking for three cars, The Lodge @ Racecourse House is idyllic for a family looking for a Welsh getaway.

Shake off your adventure-stained boots and coat in the porch before racing into the open-plan living area. Sink into the sofa and toast your well-trekked toes by the gas fire as a film entertains on the Smart TV.

Whip up a scrumptious supper in the kitchen area then dig in at a dining table for six. When the sun follows you home, enjoy your culinary creation on the wraparound decking, then bound up to the stunning rooftop veranda to relax on the sun loungers.

When the evening chill begins to nip, hop into the sunken hot tub to watch the sun melt into the country hills. Rinse off the day in a free-standing bath or walk-in shower, as the washer/dryer and dishwasher take care of your laundry and plates before jumping into a super-king-size, king-size, or twin bed waiting to catch you.

Soak up your surroundings at Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, after making friends with the alpacas at Greenhill Alpaca Trekking, then end the day with a bite at The Druid Inn – less than a mile from your holiday home! Venture a little further afield to Prestatyn to indulge in a beach day at Prestatyn Beach, take a scenic stroll through Prestatyn Nature Reserve and explore Prestatyn's Roman Baths.

Take the short drive to Chester to meet the animals at the globally-renowned Chester Zoo, then treat the history buff to a walk along Chester City Walls before donning your finest clothes for a day out at the world’s oldest racecourse; Chester Racecourse. Secluded and peaceful yet close to all the pre-requisite amenities and shops for the perfect family holiday, adventure is never far when you stay at The Lodge @ Racecourse House.
