Vacation like a Royal
Anglesey Experiences for Royal Enthusiasts
New York, NY, August 15, 2013 - Vacation like a royal on the Isle of Anglesey where William and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, have spent the first two years of their marriage. The islands scenery, budding culinary scene, and traditional Welsh hospitality have charmed the couple, and travelers can follow in their footsteps with these five Anglesey experiences for royal enthusiasts.
How to vacation like a royal:
1. Walk the Wales Coast Path The walking path stretches 870 miles around the shores of Wales; 125 of which wrap around Anglesey. On average, it takes 12 days to complete but visitors can do short trails with stops at South Stack lighthouse, the Menai Suspension Bridge, the sea cliffs at Rhoscolyn, and Llanddwyn Island the place dedicated to the Welsh Patron Saint of lovers.
2. Take a day tour of Anglesey Excursions North Wales is a tour company that offers an Amazing Isle of Anglesey day tour stopping at: the RAF Valley air force base (where Prince William works), South Stack nature reserve and lighthouse, Plas Cadnant Hidden Gardens, and the Menai Suspension Bridge which features views across the Menai Straits.
3. Visit a stately home Plas Newydd is set on the Menai Straits and boasts views of Snowdonia. The country-house currently belongs to the Marquess of Anglesey. While there, take a walk through the gardens or have afternoon tea its a favorite of the Duke and Duchess.
4. Explore a castle Beaumaris Castle is a medieval fortress that dates back to the 13 th century when King Edward I commissioned it to defeat the Welsh rebels. It is surrounded by stone walls and a moat, and it belongs to the Castles and Town Walls of King Edward in Gwynedd UNESCO World Heritage Site.
5. Stay in shadows of nobility Visitors can discover the variety of accommodation options on Anglesey from the private-estate turned boutique, five-star accommodation at Plas Rhianfa, to the 15 th century coaching inn and pub at Ye Olde Bulls Head Inn. They can also rent a farmhouse just like the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge Coastal Holidays offers cottage rentals on the island.
On August 14 th , 2013 Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, made his first public appearance at the Anglesey Show an agricultural show in North Wales since the birth of his son. He described his experience living on the Isle of Anglesey saying, I know that I speak for Catherine when I say that I have never in my life known somewhere as beautiful and as welcoming as Anglesey. The views across the Menai Straits are undoubtedly among the most stunning in the British Isles. I know that both of us will miss it terribly when my search and rescue tour of duty comes to an end next month and we have to move elsewhere." He added, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for making my wife and me so welcome when we arrived here, as you do thousands of visitors each year.
