Drawing upon Italian and Mediterranean inspiration, the fascinating and brightly washed buildings surround a central piazza. Surrounding these terracotta-roofed buildings is a subtropical forest known as the The Gwyllt. Home to secret gardens, rare flowers and some of the largest trees in Britain, these exotic woodlands are worth visiting just as much as the village itself. The truly magnificent oriental garden, complete with a temple and Chinese bridge, is another must-see at Portmeirion.

Porthmadog’s harbour is a lively part of the town and has excellent restaurants and bars to choose from, as well as great shops too. The harbour plays host to international visitors all year round, from working yachtsman to pleasure boaters, everyone enjoys stopping to enjoy Porthmadog.

There is so much to do in Porthmadog, luckily Min-y-don holiday home owners are less than a 20 minute drive away from this lovely harbour town and can enjoy it as often as they like.
