Rhyl in Denbighshire, north east Wales, was found to have 'no past, no arts or entertainment, no fun', according to the Seaside Gentrification Index.
A seaside town that used to be one of the most popular holiday resorts in the UK has now been ranked one of the worst. Rhyl, in Denbighshire, north east Wales, has now been branded as the 'Costa Del Dole' after scoring poorly in the Telegraph’s latest Seaside Gentrification Index.
In fact, it ranked so badly it received just five points out of a possible 100 and placed the town at the bottom of the list. This is some 93 points below the top resort, St Ives in Cornwall. However, when many more began travelling abroad for their summer holidays, business started to dwindle and the town fell into disrepair. iLiveHere, a scathing review platform, said Rhyl was 'Manchester-on-Sea' and dramatically said it was "one of the most disgusting seaside towns on Earth."
