Times Spent At Howisons Caravan Site

A Memory of Towyn.

My Parents owned a caravan on Howisons up to 1966. We lived in Wolverhampton and traveled there most Saturdays for the weekend. As a young lad I used to enjoy a bit of train spotting from the bridge or hiring a bike on site for hour or so. I recall also the amusement arcade that was near the entrace to the site and the British Rail Touring Office that used to call on the site to sell Rail excursions to Llandudno etc. I recall the site used to close in October till the following Easter but I still accompanied my dad on the odd winters Sunday to do some painting and maintenance to the caravan. In 1967 My family sold up in Wolverhampton and moved to Cornwall, so the end of an era. I went back in 2016 for a visit but it wasn't the place it was somehow, but still hold some lovely childhood memories for me.

Hi I'm looking to find history about Howisons caravan park in Towyn.
Can you remember whereabout it was on Towyn Road please? I'm trying to find it's location, as it was used during the war for evacuees from Liverpool
( I own a caravan on Ty Gwyn Park but I've never heard of it ( Howisons) and I've been holidaying there since the 1970s. Thanks in advance for a reply.
