Portmeirion village

This hotel and tourist attraction in north Wales was catapulted into fame by the 1960's cult TV series "The prisoner" starring Patrick McGoohan. It's a fascinating place to walk around.

 

From Wikipedia:

The village of Portmeirion has been a source of inspiration for writers and television producers. Noël Coward wrote Blithe Spirit while staying there. George Bernard Shaw and H. G. Wells were also early visitors. In 1956 the village was visited by architect Frank Lloyd Wright, and other famous visitors have included Gregory Peck, Ingrid Bergman and Paul McCartney.
