Talacre is a village in Flintshire on the north coast of Wales in the community of Llanasa. It is near Point of Ayr on the west side of the River Dee estuary and has a sandy beach with dunes with large holiday caravan parks adjacent. The hills of the Clwydian Range behind the village form the eastern boundary of the Vale of Clwyd. The name Talacre is a combination of the Welsh words tal, meaning end, and acrau, meaning acres. In the north-east Welsh dialect, acrau is pronounced as acre. According to other sources, the name is properly pronounced Tal-AK-ray or Tal-AK-ree.
