Whether you decide to come to Anglesey in the summer or winter there is a wide selection of self-catering cottages for you to choose from, with some located inland near interesting historic attractions, like the last remaining working windmill in Wales at Llynnon. The country lanes are great if you like cycling and there are some designated routes passing cultural sites of interest. Many of the holiday cottages in Anglesey will still retain the traditional features, such as farmhouse cottages next to a working farm, where visitors can get a first hand view of life on a Welsh farm today.

Of course you may want to have a restful break in a coastal cottage adjacent to the Anglesey Coastal Path, covering 125 miles of island coastline within a special Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Walking these paths gives you the chance to experience absolutely amazing mountian and sea views. Imagine leaving your cottage garden near Benllech shortly before breakfast and taking the path along the coast, enjoying the sun rising over the horizon. Benllech and Lligwy on the east coast have a good choice of coastal cottages, and these seaside villages also have some fine beaches nearby including Traeth Bychan, suitable for families who love sailing, fishing and for keen walkers.

You will find that a holiday cottage in Anglesey could be a modern designed, four bedroomed house which can sleep up to 10 people or a small traditional farmhouse cottage in a secluded copse, with pheasant, cattle and sheep nearby, which caters for just 2 to 3 guests, and privacy enhanced by hedgerows and a secluded garden with fine apple orchards. Guests will find most cottages offer central heating, washing facilities and a shower, and young children are catered for with extra beds and cots. An access statement for people with disabilities is often provided and these self-catering cottages have a hairdryer, a TV and satellite arrangement.

Imagine your island cottage near to the sea and you can strole along a wide sandy beach, the sea glistening and sun setting ahead of you. You could achieve this by getting a cottage on the south west strech of Anglesey coast. Running from the magical Llanddwyn beach near Newborough in the south to Aberffraw and its quiet sand dunes and marram grass stretching for miles to the sea and on to the “mecca” for surfers at Rhosneigr in the south west, there is an excellent range of coastal cottages to pick from.

Should you venture further west on Anglesey you will find secluded coastal properties on Holy Island near Porth Dafarch, Rhoscolyn and Trearddur Bay, and there are some award winning sandy beaches nearby, just look for the Blue Flag. Here also visitors can reach the coastal path and walk to the enigmatic South Stack lighthouse and see the seabirds and marine life off the cliffs. While on the eastern coast you can pick up some coastal cottages in very sheltered ltered locations such as near Penmon and Llangoed, and close by are the historic Penmon Priory, Dovecote and Seiriol’s Well. South of here you can visit Beaumaris Castle, the famous UN World Heritage site on the Menai Strait and this character seaside town offers some great views of the mainland mountains.

You may be wanting to stay on this beautiful isle for a weekend or a week, either way you can be confident of finding a suitable island holiday cottage to meet the needs of your group or family. For some the ideal holiday is coasteering, kayaking, sailing or surfing, while others opt for a more sedate and relaxing break, perhaps visiting attractions such as galleries and museums or walking the coastal path. Whatever you decide to go for, the best way to prepare for your island vacation is to book one of the many fine, character holiday cottages in Anglesey.
