We are a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 children who have had an amazing stay at Trearddur bay.
A friend of ours who worked as a nurse at RAF Valley recommended Anglesey and she was spot on!
The beach house has been an absolute find. No pets. Hot tub and the beach, tick tick and tick!
The house is well equipped, the bunk bed room the kids went mad over especially the changing lights.
The house has three good bathrooms and clean large towels. The hot tub was clean and hot !
The kitchen is a real hub of the house and the lounge is huge with lovely views and a bifolding door so you could hear the sea all the time.
The view from the house are breathtaking and we've explored the rocky beach opposite right up to the main beach through the grassy paths.
We've had lazy days and busy days.
Highlights included:
* the castle walk, it's in the info book, a walk up to the WWII pillbox.
*South stack lighthouse an absolute must.
* beaumaris castle, a bit of a drive but well worth it.
* breakwater country park, Amazing views take a picnic!
* holyhead maritime museum, friendly guides and the cutest gift shop.
* as national trust members we also visited plas newyyd, Lovely views and walks and activities for the children.
* Anglesey sea zoo, not for us, huge queues and visitor feedback was poor. So we didn't go in. But the kids played crazy golf and we had a long walk along the shoreline. They have a shop selling Anglesey sea salt and unique gifts nearby, if you are there then worth putting your head in.
*We did struggle to find nice gift shops, we always like to take something back home. The RNLI have a little shop at Trearddur bay. They do a great job and if you don't subscribe then pay them a visit here to support the good work they do by taking a souvenir home!
*the main beach is gorgeous, blue flag with separate areas for dogs.
The locals are sooo friendly here. And the place has such a relaxed feel about it.
We are incredibly good at self catering and as we have a son who has sensory processing disorder and dyspraxia we have to think twice before eating out.
We ended up having lunch at the local Morrison's which was actually pretty good!
We also got pizza Take Away from a pizza place in holyhead - pizzeria gondola which was ok.
There is a Spar within walking distance and plenty of ice cream vans.
All in all this place is highly recommended.
We had an amazing time!
