Saint Tudwal's Islands

Saint Tudwal's Islands are a small archipelago lying south of Abersoch on the Llŷn peninsula in North Wales, at the western end of Tremadog Bay.

The East island is currently owned by author Carla Lane and the West island was recently purchased by adventurer Bear Grylls and converted into a holiday home.
