People on Anglesey say they are being evicted from long-term rental accommodation to make way for holiday homes. One family say they have lived in their home for more than a decade and are now struggling to find anywhere else to live.
Speaking in the Senedd on Tuesday, July 13, Plaid MS for Ynys Mon Rhun ap Iorwerth said people living in accommodation owned by the Bodorgan Estate, who owned the property rented by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge when they lived on the island, have been asked to leave in order for the change of use in the properties.
One family affected, who asked not to be named, said they have rented their home for more than 10 years. In October last year they were initially told that all the properties being were being assessed as to whether they could be turned into holiday lets. All residents have lived there between 12 and 20 years, we were told and anyone who was to be impacted would be given six months notice.
