Breakfast near Holywell in Flintshire just off the A55

Posted by Chris on March 11th, 2011

You are looking for breakfast in Flintshire……..

Maybe you are driving down the A55, from Manchester to Holyhead, or you are working on one of the windfarms just off the coast ( one of the main growth industries in the Holywell area ) or you are visiting the area to see St Winefride’s Well or one of the other local attractions.

You could have breakfast in McDonalds or The Little Chef or one of the many hotels and restaurants along the A55 or you could just ” drop out ” for a while and divert just off the A55 to The Glan yr Afon Inn.

A special Bed and Breakfast place near The National Memorial Arboretum

Somewhere special near the National Memorial Arboretum for Rooms Bed and Breakfast

As a former Royal Navy Officer ( Weapons Electrical Engineer ) and with my father and stepfather in the Royal Air Force and mum’s brothers in the Welsh Guards it seemed appropriate to be able to offer rooms, bed and breakfast to people attending the National Memorial Arboretum at St Leonards House ( http://www.st-leonards-house.co.uk/bedandbreakfast.html ).

As it happens the National Memorial Arboretum has been massively successful – if successful is the right word for a place of mourning.

St Leonards House is just across the A38 from the Arboretum, not quite walking distance – although you certainly could do it – but a very short car ride.

No doubt visitors to St Leonards House will also be interested in the information that we have about HMS Barham and the story of Harry Dooling, a stoker, second class whose mum worked at Wychnor Hall and who went down on the Barham at the tender age of 18 and who is buried in Wychnor Church next door.

There is a beautiful view from the Church yard over to Cannock Chase.
