Loggerheads

Holidaymakers in the area around Mold, or those planning to tackle Moel Famau – the highest peak in the Clwydian Range – should also set aside some time to visit Loggerheads Country Park. With its beautiful wooded river valley, dramatic outcrops and cliffs, it’s the perfect location for a stroll, or the ideal starting point for launching longer forays into the mountains.

The visitor centre has a well-marked Discovery Trail and there are easily accessible pathways around the park and to the hills and valleys beyond.

Loggerheads was an important lead-mining area and evidence of this industrial past remains, partially submerged among the trees. The left-hand path follows the line of the old watercourse that carried water for mining operations the length of the Alyn Valley, often high up on the cliffs.

From guided walks and family activities to abseiling in Devil’s Gorge, you’ll find plenty to see and do in and around Loggerheads Country Park.

100 beaches in North Wales, you’ll be spoilt for choice.

Menai Holidays has over 800 self-catering cottages across North Wales, including over 215 beach properties, so you’re just a stone’s throw from divine sunsets, late-night strolls on the sand and all that fresh sea air.

And if you’re looking for an action-packed summer getaway, many of the properties are just minutes from so many exciting activities. Enjoy stargazing from one of the woodland pods in Snowdonia or soak up the sunshine in a lodge on the Llyn Peninsula. If you’re an active family looking for thrills why not base yourselves near Zip World’s fastest zipline, Velocity, and zoom at over 100mph while taking in unbeatable views of Snowdonia?

So, what are you waiting for? Enjoy an unforgettable holiday with your loved ones in one of Menai Holidays’ selfcatering cottages this summer! You can browse our properties at www.menaiholidays.co.uk or find us on Instagram @menaiholidays and Facebook @menaiholidaycottages

ST TUDWAL’S ISLANDS

Justoff the coast of the Llyn Peninsula, at the western end of Tremadog Bay, is a small archipelago, well worth visiting if you are boating in the area. There are two main islands, St Tudwal’s Island West and St Tudwal’s Island East, and they are well known for their wildlife, in particular the seal population. Small boats sail from Abersoch to take passengers to view the wildlife – the seals are best spotted in late summer and early autumn.

The eastern island has the remains of a priory, believed to be the original hermitage of St Tudwal, which is presumably where the islands’ name comes from. The priory is referred to in the 1291 tax rolls, and can be found on its eastern side.

St Tudwal’s West, with its lighthouse, was recently purchased by professional adventurer and TV presenter Bear Grylls and converted into a holiday home.
