For a Wales holiday with an Italian twist, try a cottage by
Portmeirion. This unique village in North Wales promises an
experience with a difference.
Why Portmeirion?
On the southern fringes of Snowdonia, this pastel-painted
Italianate village nestles on a private peninsula overlooking the
Traeth Bach Estuary. Created by Welsh architect Sir Clough
Williams-Ellis, a series of buildings were rescued from across
Britain and Europe then painstakingly re-assembled to form this
extraordinary settlement. The 70 acres of sub-tropical woodland
gardens are a delight, with miles of way-marked trails to explore.
And thanks to a naturally mild climate, there are numerous exotic
species of plants and trees to admire along the way. Use our
North
Wales Travel Guide for all the inspiration you need for your
visit.
