Portmeirion Hotel description
Hotel / Conference Centre
Medium (1-150)
Welcome to Portmeirion
Portmeirion was created by the architect Clough Williams-Ellis from 1925 to 1976.
He wanted to show how a naturally beautiful site could be developed without spoiling it.
He hoped the village would make people to think about buildings in the landscape.
The village was built as a place people could enjoy for its own sake. It was supposed to be a place where events, concerts and exhibitions could take place.
CHILDREN UNDER 5 YEARS OLD GO FREE
We do not charge admission for children under 5 years of age. We charge the adult rate for anyone over 16 years of age, however we can offer a concession rate for students or those attending full time education.
FREE ENTRY AFTER LUNCH AT CASTELL DEUDRAETH
A two course lunch at Castell Deudraeth (or three courses if you prefer) includes a free entry voucher to Portmeirion for use after lunch. Lunch bookings can be made on 01766 772400 but are not essential, however you may have to wait for a table if you arrive without a booking.
FREE ENTRY WITH SUNDAY LUNCH AT THE HOTEL PORTMEIRION
dim cwn
Pre booked Sunday lunch at The Hotel Portmeirion includes free entry to Portmeirion village. We regret that this does not include vehicle access into Portmeirion village as there is very little parking space however we have free parking near the entrance.
SORRY, NO DOGS ALLOWED ON SITE
Portmeirion is a safe and exiting environment for children of all ages. For reasons of health and safety we regret that dogs are not allowed on site.
We do understand that the vast majority of dog owners are responsible but there are a few who are not. In common with almost all other visitor attractions we regret to advise that we only allow guide dogs on site.
Please note Castell Deudraeth also carries a no dogs policy
HISTORY OF THE VILLAGE
CWE2Clough Williams-Ellis had conceived of a tightly grouped coastal village on some romantic clifftop site, perhaps on an island or a remote estuary. This idea stayed with him for about 20 years until in 1925 he found the Aber Iâ estate on the Dwyryd estuary near his home. It was more or less exactly what he had been hoping for, and it was for sale - he bought if for what is said to be around £5,000.
The first thing he did was change the name to Portmeirion. He did not feel Aber Iâ was approprite as it could mean 'frozen river mouth' which was not ideal for a holiday resort.
The name Portmeirion comes from 'Port' to put it on the coast and 'Meirion' the correct spelling of Merioneth, the county in which is was located.
Portmeirion was built in two stages, from 1925 to 1939 and then once post war building restrictions had been lifted, from 1954-76.
PORTMEIRION TODAY
Today Portmeirion is one of Wales' premier visitor attractions, welcoming around 225,000 visitors every year.
Visit Portmeirion
Surrounding the village are 70 acres of exotic woodlands with miles of woodland and coastal walks.
Portmeirion is open every day of the year from 9.30am to 7.30pm.
We look forward to welcoming you.
