Anglesey
Anglesey also known as Ynys Mon, just off the Gwynedd coast in north Wales, is the largest island in either Wales or England and is home to about 50 caravan parks. Anglesey is connected across the Menai Strait to mainland Wales by Thomas Telford's Menai Bridge, the first suspension bridge of its kind. There are many exciting remains of Iron Age settlements, burial mounds, stone circles and dolmens on Anglesey indicating its religious importance to the ancient Celts. Anglesey has the distinction of claiming the title of village with the longest place name in Europe – Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. Translated into English, this means “The church of St. Mary in a hollow of white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and near St. Tysilio's church by the red cave” and was coined in the nineteenth century to attract tourists to the island. Not surprisingly, it is abbreviated to Llanfairpwll or Llanfair P.G. by the locals. Anglesey has several thriving towns, full of local crafts and fascinating buildings for static caravan tourists to explore. The town of Beaumaris is the site of historic Beaumaris castle, built by Edward I after his defeat of the Welsh Princes, and historic Henllys Hall, which is now a hotel. The town of Holyhead is the main ferry port for travel across the Irish Sea to Dublin. To the north of Anglesey is Puffin Island, and no mobile home holiday is complete without a boat trip to look at its feathered inhabitants.Aberdeenshire and Aberdeen City | Angus | Argyll and Bute | Avon and Bristol | Ayrshire and Arran | Bedfordshire | Berkshire | Blaenau Gwent | Bridgend | Buckinghamshire | Caerphilly | Cambridgeshire | Cardiff | Carmarthenshire | Ceredigion | Channel Islands | Cheshire | Conwy | Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | County Antrim | County Armagh | County Down | County Fermanagh | County Londonderry | County Tyrone | Cumbria | Denbighshire | Derbyshire | Devon | Dumfries and Galloway | Dunbartonshire | Dundee City | Durham | East Sussex | East Yorkshire | Edinburgh | Essex | Falkirk | Fife | Flintshire | Glamorgan | Glasgow | Gloucestershire | Greater Manchester | Gwynedd | Hampshire | Herefordshire | Hertfordshire | Highlands | Inverclyde | Isle of Anglesey | Isle of Man | Isle of Wight | Kent | Lanarkshire | Lancashire | Leicestershire | Lincolnshire | London | Lothian | Merseyside | Merthyr Tydfil | Monmouthshire | Moray | Neath Port Talbot | Newport | Norfolk | North Yorkshire | Northamptonshire | Northumberland | Nottingham | Orkney Islands | Outer Hebrides | Oxfordshire | Pembrokeshire | Perth and Kinross | Powys | Redcar and Cleveland | Renfrewshire | Rhonda Cynon Taff | Scottish Borders | Shetland Islands | Shropshire | Somerset | South Yorkshire | Staffordshire | Stirling | Suffolk | Swansea | Torfaen | Tyne and Wear | Warwickshire | West Midlands | West Sussex | West Yorkshire | Wiltshire | Worcestershire | Wrexham
