This was free to enter and is right on the coastal path. Me and my partner had a walk along the coastal path to the castle, then to the beacon. Great views throughout. There's steps which head up the tower. This is a view, but may not be suitable for some people. The ruins are uneven in places, which again may impact some people from going, but the surrounding paths are great. Additionally, there's a carpark just round the corner from the castle. Well worth a visit. What am amazing, beautiful, interesting find!!! We all loved walking around the ruins today and stumbled upon it when looking for a beech to walk on with the kids. That did not go to plan! But we loved the ruins and spent some time walking adding in each part. And what a view too while up top. Just simply a must see!! Unexpected visit but a one. We didn’t come here to visit we just happens to stop to get a break from driving. Such a location. Stunning views. Had lots of fun free fun! Worth reading about why it was built and by whom. Defiantly kill an hour or two here with the kids however I’ll they are. No tickets needed it’s open to anyone Flint is a great stop if you enjoy a bit of history and exploring ruins. There’s still quite a bit of the left to see, and you can climb up the old tower stairs to enjoy a wonderful view stretching far across the sea. Entry is free, which is a bonus! The surroundings are beautiful, and it’s easy to imagine what life must have been like here, right by the water. There’s a paid car park nearby. Plenty of green space and a grassy beach area next to the — perfect for relaxing if the weather is good. A lovely, relaxed stop to stretch your legs and take in some history. Beautiful in a beautiful location! I went after work, when the was closed. Even though I couldn’t go inside the walls, just wandering around the outside of it, on the bridge and in and around the grounds was more than enough. Parking is free after 5pm. The carpark is right in front of the castle. Great place for a day out with friends and family. Great location to do a coastal walk. There are clear defined paths for it. outdoor space with very considerate restoration, including stairs to get to the tops of the towers. It has no amenities, so don't expect toilets or food outlets, it is only an impressive historic shell of what must have been a once impressive castle. Visitor boards around the explain its history, and there are several walks that pass the castle. Ruins of with great views carpark and are free. You can walk around the outside of makes a nice nature walk. There is a proper path so pushchairs and wheelchair access to castle. Plus there are plenty of benches to sit and relax on . Well worth a visit. Amazing historic site! Flint is a fantastic place to visit. It’s very well maintained, and there’s a great amount of historical information displayed throughout the site, which really brings its past to life. Built in 1277 by order of King Edward I, it was the first of his “Iron Ring” of castles during his campaign in Wales. The castle’s unique design—especially the large circular tower—is really impressive, and the views across the Dee Estuary are beautiful.
