Anglesey Abbey is a splendid Jacobean-style residence enveloped by a vast 46-hectare garden and a watermill. The house is home to a remarkable collection of 350-year-old painted vistas of Windsor, and its charm knows no seasonal bounds, offering attractions throughout the year, from the winter garden to the snowdrops and the Dahlia festival. This place is a testament to a genuine commitment to tradition, as a single individual aspired to rejuvenate a dilapidated country house and its barren surroundings, that led to its transformation. The house hosts a variety of seasonal attractions, including the Winter Lights Festival, snowdrop walks, and summer outdoor cinema events. Anglesey Abbey's library is a treasure trove with nearly 5,200 books, primarily comprising elegantly bound commonplace reading materials and around a thousand collector's books.

ANGLESEY ABBEY REVIEWS
My favourite National Trust place in the area. The grounds are beautiful with so many places to hide away and relax in your own little world. Lovely flowerbeds and wonderful, old, huge trees. The children's play area is fantastic for the children with lots of new additions. My children love it especially all the swings.
A great place to visit, you could easily make it last a day and still not see everything. £15.00 a person isn't cheap but there is 100+ acres to look round and a historical mill as well as the abbey itself. A lovely garden and parkland which is easy to get round for anyone. The parkland has a large variety of trees which would even keep Tarzan happy. The restaurant/ tearoom is well priced and top notch. Definitely visit.
Gorgeous! The fall colors were beautiful! The walks through the woods were serene and full of autumn colors. There were a lot of people when we pulled in but the forest walk was fast from it. However the house was decently packed and didn't allow for much casual strolling.

MUSEUM OF ARCHAEOLOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY REVIEWS
An antidote to shopping. A visual feast of culture with the Canadian totem rising over two floors being a highlight. We also enjoyed the colour display which provided a good insight into the scientific and cultural importance of colour all wonderfully curated. Oh, and there’s a shop, selling some very beautiful but reasonably priced craft items.
Very interesting museum to visit with your little ones.. From Mayan culture to American Indian, Egyptian to Japanese many things can be seen. Children can optionally get a paper with some objects to find in each floor of the museum and they like it so much. Also colouring figures with crayons were nice. Toilets were clean and spacey to go in with your child.
The oldest potatoes that I ever saw. I like the arrangements of antiques based on regions, then based on years. Thanks to staffs, the smiles on their face are shining.
