Maenaddwyn, Isle of Anglesey, North Wales — LL71 8BG

Ynys Môn — the Isle of Anglesey

Anglesey is an island off the north-west corner of Wales, connected to the mainland by the Menai Strait and two famous bridges. It has more miles of designated coastline than any other island in Wales, with sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, hidden coves and some of the finest coastal walking in Britain.

Bron Heulog sits in the rural centre of the island, just outside the hamlet of Maenaddwyn, in good company with a handful of neighbouring homes sharing the hillside. It’s a quiet, settled spot with open countryside views in every direction — rural without being remote. At this elevation the views are remarkable — on a clear day you can see across the whole of Anglesey to the sea, and beyond to the mountains of Snowdonia. The sunsets are extraordinary.

The cottage is four miles from the fishing village of Moelfre and its sandy beach — the perfect morning run or afternoon walk. Beaumaris, with its famous castle, is about thirty minutes by car. The coastal path and bird reserves at South Stack are forty minutes. The island has something to offer in every direction.
