Once departing the local area we make our way to Abakhan Haberdashery, for some short frere time.
We then make our way to St Winefride's Chapel and Holy Well, where we enjoy a tour and a historic tour.
St Winefride’s Well is known as the
Lourdes of Wales. Unlikely as it may seem, this is an understatement: Holywell is more than 1,000 years older than its French counterpart. The holy waters that gush out of the ground emerge into an outdoor pool the size of a small swimming pool, where pilgrims to this day immerse themselves and pray for St Winefride’s intercessions. Miraculous cures are regularly attributed to the site, which attracts 30,000 visitors a year.
In the afternoon, we stop at the Tearooms at the Pet Cemetry, Holywell. Included in this package will be a Sandwich, Cake and Drink.
Set in picturesque grounds on the outskirts of the historic market town of Holywell, our award winning Tearooms in Flintshire offer a locally sourced, traditional menu serving Afternoon Teas on fine bone china, the BEST freshly cooked breakfast in town as well as a wide variety of homemade bakes and meals.
The badly kept secret of their delicious home baked scones, cakes and a variety of homemade meals was soon leaked by ladies who lunch, tourists, ramblers and cycling clubs.
