Anglesey Holiday Cottages
Anglesey holiday cottages are a popular choice for many holiday makers. Located off the North Wales coast in North Gwynedd, Anglesey is an island of rugged cliffs, fine beaches and hidden sandy coves. It has a beautiful, unspoilt feel to it and is steeped in a rich Celtic history. For more details about Anglesey cottages see below.
Picturesque stone walled villages punctuate the landscape like Beaumaris with its 13 century castle built by Edward I. Cemaes Bay offers a selection of sandy beaches as well as an attractive stone quay and rugged cliffs. There's also an open air market at the island's central town Llangefni. Weekend breaks in Anglesey prove very popular this time of year.
Holyhead Mountain affords some wonderful views that include Snowdonia, the Mountains of Cumbria and the Isle of Man. The Southstack lighthouse, constructed in 1809 is built on rocks that are sanctuary to an abundance of sea-life that includes seals and sea-birds.
The island is known as the place where the Druids made their fierce stand against the Romans, while Plas Penmynydd was the ancestral home of the Tudors. Ancient ruins and remains can be found around the island such as the 12th century priory, the Church of St Seiriol, as well as the cruciform church of St Cybi.
