Ynys Môn is an island perched at the top of Wales. Known in English as Anglesey, the island is connected to the mainland by only two bridges. In the seventeenth century, erosion of the coastline meant that an islet formed off the island - Cribinau. Yet there was only one problem - the cherished thirteenth century church of Saint Cwyfan was isolated on the newly formed tidal island.

It's a beautiful spot, I've visited many times. Don't expect tranquility however, it's hard by a race circuit which is in use several days a week and there's an RAF base just up the coast so you get jets overflying all the time at relatively low altitude.
However I'd have to take issue with the statement "its isolation demands both research and effort to reach it"
There is parking about 400m away from the church and it's not a difficult walk. The only problem is the tides, but tide tables are posted locally.
