  • Small, friendly site next to the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path
  • South Stack Lighthouse 40 minutes' walk; 10 mins' drive to Holyhead
  • Stunning sea views from the site; well-behaved dogs welcome
Heading to Holyhead for a ferry? Pining for a peaceful stay and lots of lovely walks? Or just hoping to put yourself in prime position for the glorious sunset views at South Stack Lighthouse? Whatever it is that brings you to Holy Island, at the western tip of Anglesey, you’ll get a warm welcome and some stunning scenery at Anglesey Vacations. This small site is a couple of miles from Holyhead, in a particularly pretty spot with fantastic views out to sea and easy access to the coast path. South Stack is about five minutes’ drive away (or 40 minutes on foot) and the nearest sandy beach is around a mile away. Popular Trearddur Bay is about 10 minutes' drive away for more beach times, as is the centre of Holyhead for amenities including shops and restaurants (plus those ferries to Ireland, of course). Friendly owner Tom has chosen to keep things simple on site to help guests make the most of this fabulous natural setting – so while there's a handy wifi connection it’s important to note there are no communal toilet or shower facilities provided for touring guests (glamping options have their own ensuite facilities). One of the real selling points for this site is its proximity to the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path – and as dogs are welcome on site you'll be able to include your canine pal in your walking plans if you like.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Lovely location

Disliked: Although booking an electric pitch and they'd kindly marked a pitch with my name, there was no electric hook up for the pitch. Also there were no toilet or shower facilities making it exclusively for motorhomes with their own facilities, unfortunately, we couldn't stay there.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: First of all there was and is electric hook up, the box has three outlets 2 on the front and one on the side which was obviously not seen and nobody came to ask where it was as they decided not to stay as we don't have toilets. You only need to look through the images on our listing to see that I have tried to make it very clear that there are no toilets onsite. If you want facilities and activities that's not what we are about, try butlins,

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Tom the owner kept in touch with us via text message right from the start of booking our pitch.
We arrived and was greeted by Tom who shown us to our pitch.
The site was well maintained to a high standard it was a lovely site. Our view was the sea a lighthouse was showing.
We have dog too, there is a beautiful walk along the cliff and also steps down to a little cove.
We would stay again.
There are no toilets or shower facilities but this was also pointed out to us before we arrived and Tom offered a refund if we wanted. There was amenities for fresh waster and to clear your grey waste water.

Great site for us. No kids while we were there, so peaceful break.

Local attractions

It’s all about the coast, isn’t it? The coast path passes very close by here, so you'll be able to walk to sandy Porth Dafarch beach in about 20 minutes or to the famous South Stack Lighthouse (a great birdwatching location as well as a popular sunset spot) in around 40 minutes. Trearddur Bay (10 minutes' drive) is another local favourite, with rockpools and a gently sloping sandy beach that’s great for swimming. Set your sights a little further afield for other coastal spots like Rhosneigr (25 minutes), Church Bay (half an hour) and Ynys Llanddwyn (45 minutes), reached via a walk through the pine forest. Although the coast path has many miles of stunning scenery, walkers may also like to head inland for trails through the colourful landscapes of Parys Mountain (40 minutes). Other Anglesey outings? How about snapping pics of the world's longest railway sign at Llanfairpwllgwyngyll (half an hour), exploring the Grade I-listed Plas Newydd House and Gardens (35 minutes) or visiting the unfinished Beaumaris Castle (45 minutes)? You could also head back over to the mainland to walk in Eryri National park (40 minutes) or visit Conwy Castle (50 minutes).
