Caravanners staying at the beautiful Tree Tops family-run caravan park in Gwespyr this summer might have noticed the stunning floral arrangements that brighten up the campsite.

The park’s gardening team has been rewarded for its efforts by scooping first place in its category in the Wales in Bloom awards.

Tree Tops is located close to Prestatyn, which features a number of touring sites near to the sea.

General manager Andy Walker explained that David and Christine Ball have been tending to the site’s gardens for two decades and have been instrumental in it winning the same prize an amazing 19 years in a row.

“We’ve got an excellent gardening team,” he told the Flintshire Chronicle.

“They’re very dedicated and hard working – it’s their life’s work, they’ve been doing it for 20 years. It’s their passion, a labour of love. They’re fantastic and I’ll panic when they finally retire.”

Nearby Holywell also fared well in the Wales in Bloom Awards, coming second in the Small Towns category.
