Good walks - spoiled for choice! The Anglesey Coastal Path takes you right round the island, while the network of public paths inland criss-cross the different landscapes.

Things to see and do - there's always something going on in Anglesey. There's a full calendar of events, plus plenty of attractions and places to visit for all ages.

Places to eat - Anglesey has loads of local food, plus a variety of eateries covering different cuisines and budgets. We've listed a few of our favourites in Places To Eat.

Local food - not surprisingly, extra-fresh seafood is always on the menu!

Hire shops for bikes and boats - there are plenty of these on Anglesey, so you don't have to bring everything with you!

Boat trips - day boats sail from ports all around the island. You can go sea-fishing or just enjoy the view!

Parking - there is plenty of secure parking at our cottages. Public parking is usually easy to find, although Holyhead and the area on the Menai Straits can get busy at times.

Safety - Anglesey is generally a very safe part of the UK. You only need to take the usual sensible precautions, like locking doors and keeping an eye on valuable items. The land and sea of Anglesey are stunning - but remember the sea has a mind of its own, and has to be treated with respect at all times.

Visitors from abroad - if you've been to the UK before but never been to Anglesey you're in for a treat. Wales has its own character and traditions, and is very different from the other countries in the United Kingdom. Welsh is a living language, and is spoken by more and more people each year - but you won't have any difficulty talking, as the Welsh love to talk and love visitors!
