Stadium
Holywell Town currently play at Halkyn Road, which is located just a short walk from Holywell town centre, behind the town's newly built cottage hospital. The ground can accommodate 2,000 spectators with 200 seated with an additional 250 covered, with plenty of space for car parking behind the main stand. In recent times, the Halkyn Road ground has been greatly improved, such as increasing parking facilities, and the stadium has been the venue for many Youth International fixtures in the past. As with many stadiums around the area, the stadiums has its own permanent floodlights which allows evening games to be played at the stadium.
Light refreshments are available for supporters from the club tea room located by the main stand.
Record attendance = 3000 - Welsh Cup 6th round vs. Swansea Town in 1962.
