We were on Anglesey, 30 minutes away from the nearest shop and an hour to a decent town. I'm sure some places are lovely, RAF Valley isn't one of them!!
Flintshire isn't bad. You can go to Chester for nightlife, Mold for the theatre, iceskating and ice hockey at Deeside, shopping at Cheshire Oaks, visit Blue Planet Aquarium and Chester Zoo and ride in forests or on beaches. Put the post code into upmystreet.co.uk you find out more.
