Even without the molehills it is more than likely to be moles. They often have exit holes a little away from their main burrowing areas.
It is possible that they doing their main burrowing in your flowers beds or if you are lucky in another garden nearby.

These are the holes made by 13-stripe ground squirrels.
These are really cute ground squirrels, and they don't leave evidence of their digging because that is a survival and defensive strategy.
They are benign and eat grass. They should not be considered as vermin.
They are not snake holes, as snakes cannot dig holes (they don't have legs or feet).

Sounds like rats to me. Rats pull the earth down to compact the tunnel. We have lots of such holes on our farm and its generally rats.

There are any number of critters that can do that. As mentioned above, moles can be the culprit. More likely, at least in my yard, are voles and lizards.
Voles are the bane of my existence.

In the U.K. most likely to be voles or mice. Rats would be bigger.

May be a digging fox, or squirrels hiding their nuts.
