With its coastal walks and cosy villages, one OK! reporter took a trip to Anglesey off the north-west coast of Wales which Prince William and Kate Middleton once called home
They may spend much of their time at their new home Adelaide Cottage in Windsor and taking frequent trips up to London, but there was a period when Prince William and Kate Middleton lived a much more ‘normal’ life away from the spotlight.
Why go? Cross one of the two historic bridges over the Menai Strait to Anglesey – the Menai Bridge, opened in 1826, and the Britannia Bridge, opened in 1850 – and you’ll see why much of this coastline is designated an Area of Outstanding National Beauty. Where to stay Ben and Holly’s Hideaways is the passion project of an antique dealer and interior designer. Four exquisitely-restored self-catering apartments are set within a fairy-tale 16th century, grade II-listed pink Georgian mansion behind Gothic gates. The property, on the shores of the Menai Strait, boasts panoramic vistas of Snowdonia, but is also close to local amenities and visitor attractions.
And we especially appreciated the welcome basket of locally-sourced goodies, including pancakes, Welsh cakes and wine. The children adored crabbing off the fine Victorian pier and eating delicious fish and chips. But there’s plenty for big kids, too, with daily RIB tours during high season. For a cultural day, Anglesey’s artisan markets, galleries and antique shops are great for browsing. Fearless types should give “coasteering” a go – leaping off cliffs into the sea is an unforgettable experience. Bearded Men Adventures will help you take the plunge .
