Anglesey Committee Recommends Refusal of Long‑Running Ty Llwyd Holiday Let

Councillors have ordered a site visit before a final decision because local policy flags high concentrations of second homes in Llanfaelog.

Overview

  • The Planning and Orders Committee recommended refusal of the retrospective planning application for the Ty Llwyd holiday let, and councillors asked to inspect the property before deciding further.
  • Anglesey Council had already ruled the letting unlawful in August 2025 after a passer-by complained and an investigation found it lacked proper permission.
  • Council policy is driving the case because January 2026 data shows 37.49% of properties in Llanfaelog are second homes or holiday lets, well above the council’s 15% Supplementary Planning Guidance threshold.
  • The owners and their planning consultant argue the one‑bed outbuilding was converted rather than removed from the housing market and claim it generates about £83,220 a year for the local economy.
  • The dispute has divided local opinion and could affect how strictly Anglesey enforces small-scale conversions of outbuildings used as holiday lets, with the site visit now the next step before a final ruling.
