English company criticised over letter inviting Welsh resident to sell their home for a holiday property

A company from England has been criticised for inviting Anglesey residents to sell or rent their homes. Coastal Holidays is a company from Warwick and specialises in holidays situated in north Wales.

According to BBC Cymru Fyw, the company sent a letter to a resident in Benllech. The letter stated: "I am looking for a property in your area and was wondering if you would be interested in selling or renting your property in the long term."

According to Member of the Senedd for Ynys Môn, Rhun ap Iorwerth, this was a prime example of a company "trying to deliberately take houses out of the local housing stock, depriving people within the community of the ability to buy those homes, and pushing prices up".
