Holyhead, the largest town on Anglesey and arguably best known for being the primary ferry port to Ireland, can be found on the island's northwest coast. There are remnants of Roman walls and forts, mediaeval burial chambers, and stone village foundations to attest to the area's rich history. You can go for a walk through the former quarry that is now Breakwater Country Park. The park is home to a wide variety of species, most notably the seals that frequent the Holyhead shore, and describes the incredible building of the world's longest breakwater, at around 1.8 miles, which now serves to safeguard the harbour. Check out the town's colourful marina full of yachts and tall ships, or learn about the 100 nearby shipwrecks at the marine museum. The capital of Dublin is only 90 minutes distant via swift boat, making day visits to Ireland convenient. You can take breathtaking hikes along the cliffs of Holyhead Mountain, relax on the award-winning sands of Trearddur Bay, and visit Snowdonia National Park in about an hour and a half.

Very clean and very comfortable. A few minutes walk from the town in one direction and the Maritime Museum at the harbour in the other direction!

I am disabled. No instructions on how it works. It is a very cold property even though weather outside was very warm. Internet was only really working in main area. Not in the bedrooms despite having big TVS. Parking was also an issue.

On arrival we had difficulty parking in the car park at the side of the property as it has minimal parking spaces due to the general public parking/neighbours there most of the time. The property is lovely - the sofa is very small and would not occupy six people sitting for the evening. No opening windows in the main room which would have made it a bit cooler. A washing machine in the utility room would be ideal as only one bath towel per person for the week was provided. The town centre is not much to talk about but the harbour was a nice area to go to for an afternoon. Lovely places to go to visit though as long as you have a car.
