Lovely Review from Yellow Jacket

“Thank you SO MUCH for all you did for us before we arrived in Anglesey and all throughout our stay there.

From Yellow Jacket to Anglesey

It was, hands-down, one of the best vacations we have ever taken. You organized everything so well, down to the last detail. The lodging was absolutely perfect- every one of the B&Bs you booked for us, I would give a 5-star rating. Your notes provided to us each day were the exact amount of info needed to get us through the trail, and make sure we didn’t miss anything. You went out of your way to not only understand our interests, but to make arrangements so we were able to see things we might have missed. We especially enjoyed being able to visit the interiors of St. Padrig’s church and St. Gwenllwyfo’s church, which we could not have done without you making prior contacts for us. The mileage each day was perfect for us. And, you did good on ordering pure sunshine for our entire stay there! “

Llaneilian Church, Isle of Anglesey

Our guided tour took our American customers to Llaneilian church.

They were thllaneilian church skeletonrilled to see the that the medieval character of the interior of the church has been so well preserved.  Amazed at the skeleton painting above the door carrying a scythe.

FOUR Anglesey landscape art Rhoscolyn

There is an unique outdoor exhibition on Anglesey at the moment by landscape artist Anthony Garratt.

It is called “FOUR Anglesey” – the four pieces of giant artwork have been erected in four areas of Anglesey – Penmon, Lligwy, on the Straits near Brynsiencyn and Rhoscolyn.  They have been erected onto large easels and left in the landscape on or near the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path in the very spot they were painted.  You can see all four whilst walking all our packages.

The exhibition will be here until October 2015 for all to enjoy.

Royal Mail celebrates 10 landmark bridges

The Royal Mail is celebrating 10 landmark bridges on their latest set of first class stamps.
We at Anglesey Walking Holidays are so proud that our very own Menai Suspension Bridge appears on one of the first class stamps. The Menai suspension bridge, which links the Isle of Anglesey in North West Wales with mainland North Wales, was designed by Thomas Telford and completed in 1826. It rises approximately 30 meters above sea level, is 176.5 m long and is a fine example of Telford’s engineering feats.
