As part of our Green Traveller's Guide to Anglesey, Paul Bloomfield picks out a selection of places to stay in this glorious Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in North Wales.
Staying in the Anglesey AONB means you're likely to be within touching distance of the sea, wherever you wind up. Here are some of our favourite places to stay in the region, from warm and welcoming B&Bs to characterful old inns, from gorgeous self-catering cottages to tipi and yurts hidden in lush wooded valleys.
These places have been chosen because they offer more than just a bed for the night: they'll help you connect with the landscape, so whether it's tucking into kippers caught off Anglesey's coast, striking out with a map to explore the coastal path or taking part in a green woodwork day, all of these owners will help you get the most out of your visit to Anglesey.
