About UsEurwyn and Gillian Williams have lived on the Isle of Anglesey for over 25 years, and enjoy learning more and more about the area they live in. Walking has been one of their hobbies for over 20 years, especially the island's magnificent unspoilt coastline. Eurwyn was born on the island and has chosen to reside here, and his knowledge of the history and traditions of the area is an added bonus. Both of them are fluent in English and Welsh. Gillian and Eurwyn both have a television background, Eurwyn as a director and Gillian as a continuity person. There is nothing that Eurwyn prefers better, after a busy period of working in the television studios in Cardiff, than to walk Anglesey's coastline and enjoy the solitude and the fresh air. In 2006 Eurwyn and Gillian decided to set up Anglesey Walking Holidays/ Crwydro Môn with the hope of being able to offer walkers the same exhilirating experience that they both enjoy on their doorstep.. . The new venture had features by the BBC (Radio and television) and local papers and is going from strength to strength. New packages for 2009 include a combination of walks on Anglesey and Snowdonia, as well as Anglesey / Wicklow, Ireland. These are proving to be very popular.
