Why Choose Anglesey for a Hot Tub Break?
A hot tub holiday on Anglesey (Ynys Môn) offers a unique sense of escape. As soon as you cross one of the famous bridges, you feel the relaxed, tranquil pace of island life take over. Unlike the dramatic mountains of Snowdonia on the mainland, Anglesey is a land of rolling countryside, historic villages, and, most importantly, a world-class coastline.
The island is ringed by the 125-mile Anglesey Coastal Path, linking over 20 stunning, uncrowded beaches and hidden coves. After a day of bracing coastal walks, discovering hidden beaches, or trying a new watersport, there is no better feeling than returning to your own private sanctuary. Sinking into the warm, bubbling waters of a hot tub and watching a spectacular sunset over the Irish Sea is what an Anglesey break is all about.

Where to Stay in Anglesey
Beaumaris
On the south-east coast, Beaumaris is the island's historic jewel. This charming Georgian town features a magnificent, unfinished UNESCO World Heritage castle, colourful streets full of independent shops, and stunning views across the Menai Strait to Snowdonia.
Rhosneigr
Located on the west coast, Rhosneigr is Anglesey's vibrant watersports capital. With two broad, sandy beaches, it's a hotspot for surfing, kitesurfing, and windsurfing. The lively village atmosphere is packed with great cafes and bars.
Trearddur Bay & Holyhead
On Holy Island (connected by a causeway), Trearddur Bay is a stunning Blue Flag beach, popular with families for its clear, sheltered waters. It's also the gateway to the dramatic cliffs and iconic lighthouse at South Stack.
Newborough & Llanddwyn Island
A must-visit on the south coast. Newborough is home to a vast forest, huge sand dunes, and the magical Llanddwyn Island. This narrow spit of land, accessible at low tide, is one of Wales' most romantic spots.
Top Things to See and Do in Anglesey
- Walk the Anglesey Coastal Path: This 125-mile path goes around the entire island and is part of the larger Wales Coast Path. You don't have to walk it all; the sections around South Stack or Llanddwyn Island are breathtaking.
- Visit Llanddwyn Island: Walk out to this magical tidal island from Newborough Beach. Discover the ruins of St. Dwynwen's church (the Welsh patron saint of lovers) and the iconic Tŵr Mawr lighthouse.
- Explore Beaumaris Castle: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this perfectly symmetrical 13th-century "castle within a castle" is a masterpiece of medieval engineering.
- See the South Stack Lighthouse: Set on a tiny island off the coast of Holyhead, this dramatic lighthouse is a must-see. The views from the clifftop RSPB reserve are incredible, especially when puffins are nesting.
- Relax on a Blue Flag Beach: You are spoilt for choice. The sheltered bay at Trearddur, the vast sands of Benllech, or the picturesque cove at Cemaes Bay are all fantastic options.

Getting to the Island
Anglesey is very easy to reach. The A55 expressway runs directly from the M6 and M56 motorways, taking you across the iconic Britannia Bridge or Menai Bridge and onto the island. Once there, a car is essential for exploring the many hidden beaches and rural attractions.
