What travelers are saying

There is a huge, amazing ancient Yew tree which may date from much earlier than the fifteenth century (possibly pagan) and a war memorial at the top with fantastic views.

We stumbled across this lovely church following a walk under the suspension bridge.Picturesque with lovely views, and one of the "friends of the church" gave us an really interesting insight into it's background.

Amazing setting on an island on the Menai Straits overlooking Menai Bridge and Britannia Bridge.

Hi, you can park in Waitrose car park for I think two hours, LL59 5AE. Follow the beach road down to water (best use wheelchair)

Would love to get married here. Are weddings still performed? My cousin had both her children baptised at St. Tysilio's and my aunt is buried on the island. If anyone knows the answers please let me know.
