Portmeirion can truly claim to be unique. This fantasy village, the creation of architect Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, stands on its own private peninsula overlooking sea, sand and mountain. At its heart is Hotel Portmeirion, whose beguiling, eclectic character matches that of its amazing surroundings. Decoration and furnishings in its glittering rooms are based on many different themes. There’s the Mirror Room, for example, with floor-to-ceiling gilt-framed mirrors. Throughout, there are artefacts and antiques brought from as far afield as China. And the curvilinear art deco dining room is a stunning space designed by Sir Terence Conran to convey the atmosphere of a grand ocean liner. At high tide it seems almost to be afloat, an impression enhanced by the stone ship permanently moored outside! As well as the view across the estuary, guests enjoy a fine classical cuisine based on the best of fresh local ingredients, complemented by an outstanding wine list.

There’s also an all-important Welsh element at Portmeirion, ever present in the welcome and friendly service provided without unnecessary stuffiness by the staff. In addition to luxurious hotel accommodation in individually created rooms (all refurbished for 2007), Welsh Rarebits guests have the pick of de luxe suites located a short walk away in the village itself. There’s an outdoor pool (open May to September). Close by are Snowdonia’s mountains and the Llŷn Peninsula’s wildly beautiful coastline. Your host at this extraordinary place to stay is Siôn Dobson Jones.
