We previously posted on our blog about the jets when the Red Arrows were visiting Anglesey, but it’s pretty much an everyday occurrence that we have aircraft soaring by in the skies over our luxury bed and breakfast. Usually it’s the trainer aircraft from the nearby airbase RAF Valley, but today was a little different. We had some very exciting visitors in the form of three fully fledged military jet aircraft that made more than a few passes across a beautiful Welsh sky.


It was a clear day featuring some of the Royal Air Force’s most recognisable aircraft – such as this Eurofighter Typhoon. It was one of two we saw!

This Lightning jet is one of the UK’s most modern aircraft! As Glanllyn Bach sits in line with the end of the runway at RAF Valley, we get the best views as the planes are coming in to land.

When an aircraft’s wings generate lift, the air underneath can form rotating patterns called vortices. It was the perfect day to spot them!

We’re sure that the aviation enthusiasts out there will be able to tell just how exciting a day this really was, but just about anyone can appreciate the thrill of having jets roar by overhead!

For those of you out there seeking the pure excitement of the runway, a stay at our luxury bed and breakfast ensures that you’re in the perfect spot to watch a huge variety of aircraft as they pass by. In between working as hard as we can to renovate the property both inside and outside, the team is waiting by the phone to hear any enquiries you might have. We hope to open in early Summer, but we’ll always be more than happy to answer any questions about our rooms, prices and future availability. In the meantime, you can follow our journey on our social media or by subscribing to our newsletter!
