All about Aberffraw

Aberffraw is a small, quiet village on the west coast of Anglesey at the mouth of the gently flowing River Ffraw, renowned for its spectacular sand dunes and immense stretch of sandy beach.

The village itself sits on the site of a medieval ‘llys' (princely court), which was home to the Royal House of Aberffrawfrom which Llewelyn Fawr or Llewelyn the Great, descended.

Llewelyn was the de facto ruler of all Wales for 40 years. There is no denying the historical importance of the House of Aberffraw with many local places and names still bearing reference to this era.

Today Aberffraw is a peaceful and scenic get-away-from-it-all village. Ideal for guests looking for a tranquil base to explore the Coastal path. It is a walker's paradise with plenty of trails for all levels.

Follow the path down the estuary to catch a glimpse of local bird species and where the river meets the sea, you can take in the inspiring sea and mountain scenery, with Bardsey Island and the Llyn Peninsula beyond.

Head in the other direction and you may catch cattle grazing gently in the heathland, as you head over the impressive sand dune range to ‘Traeth Mawr', which literally translates to ‘big' or ‘great' beach with its endless sand dunes, Traeth Mawrhas been called the Sahara of Wales!

Aberffraw Village has a village shop that's on hand for all the essentials and you can sample the delicious cakes served at the Llys Llewelyn tea rooms (open Wednesday - Sunday). The pub ‘Y Goron' or ‘The Crown' is currently closed until further notice.

The Church in the Sea or ‘St Cwyfan's' church is another must-see during your trip to Aberffraw. Built in the 7th century, the church now stands on the islet of Cribinau separated from the mainland by years of coastal erosion.

Against the odds this beautiful little church stands proud and bravely on a rock, and is quite a sight to behold. Church services are held regularly in the summer months, with occasional weddings and christenings, all of course romantically dictated by the tides! The cove in which the church sits, is a gentle walk of about a mile from Aberffraw village.

Further afield the larger village of Rhosneigr is four miles away by road or seven miles if you take the coast path – trust us, you won't be disappointed. There is a daily, regular bus service for those who don't want to walk back!

Whatever your plans for your Anglesey holiday, you will not fail to be charmed by the historic, proud and immensely scenic little Welsh gem that is Aberffraw.

Wot Wifi?
THE GOOD Modern, fresh, light and airy. Very well decorated and warm. Well stocked with all the essential equipment you need. Ideal for two. All in good condition. Very pleasant and helpful ladies in reception. Spotlessly clean. Amazing towels. THE BAD Noise from the apartment above. No water in the bathroom, but quickly fixed once I'd found the stop cock. Ants in bedroom and kitchen. Reported. THE VERY BAD Internet is unreliable and often non-existent. Ranges from just ok; to impossible to connect; to connected but no service at all. Gave up on trying to watch Netflix, too many lengthy pauses. From the last evening to departure there was no service. Wasted so much time trying to get important connections. On arrival we spent over an hour, with the help of the lady in reception, trying to connect to the internet. Only to be told at the end of it, by a rude and arrogant male staff member, that the problem was my iPhone. Nothing to do with the fact that two iPhones, two iPads, a MacBook Pro and Netflix on the apartments own TV could not connect. THE ACID TEST Would we go back to Ty Arthur again. Well I'm sure by now you can guess the answer, but just in case you're unsure. NO. However we'd certainly go back to Anglesey.

First visit to Anglesey
Our first visit to this lovely Island. The property was lovely and clean, with a comfortable bed, great shower and cosy living room. An ideal location for exploring the island, Aberffraw beach one of the best - our two cocker spaniels loved it. A quiet little spot with a great local pub and friendly people. The t-shop just across the way serving freshly prepared food. Would definitely come again.
