Portmeirion is located in the heart of Gwynedd, North Wales. The enchanting Italian style village is located on the edge of Snowdonia National Park, within arms reach of the Llyn Peninsula.

Or maybe spend some time exploring the 70 acres of woodland The Gwyllt , full of winding pathways, hidden spaces and coastal views. The white sandy beaches of the Dwyryd Estuary are the perfect place to soak up the sun and enjoy an ice cream from Angel Ices Gelateria.

And finally, no visit to Portmeirion Village would be complete without visiting the Amis Reunis.
The Amis Reunis of Portmeirion was previously used as a houseboat and her remains can be seen off the coast of Portmeirion during low tide. Clough decided to build a stone boat, in homage to the original Amis Reunis — a fantastic place for children to play a game of pirates!

Designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis in , Portmerion was built in imitation of a rustic Italian village, to demonstrate how a naturally beautiful place could be developed without spoiling it. Sitting at the feet of Snowdonia it makes for a charming dislocation that is truly unique. Portmeirion's place in popular culture has been set in stone as a result.
Sir Clough Williams-Ellis designed Portmeirion on the town of Portofino in tribute to the atmosphere of the Mediterranean. The town that sits at the edge of its own Snowdonian peninsula incorporates fragments from several pre-existing buildings, assembling them in a post-modern bricolage.
The ironic sense nostalgia and pastiche that emanates from Portmeirion has been a key element of its architectural legacy. Previously the village had entertained Frank Lloyd Wright, Gregory Peck and Ingrid Bergman, making Portmeirion undoubtedly the jewel in the glittering crown of Snowdonia.
