I did enjoy seeing Portmeirion. Brought back memories of…….The Prisoner!!! Especially when the tide was out….. big white bouncing balloons/balls. See, if you guys don’t watch a couple of episodes you are never going to know. FYI the daughter of Williams-Ellis was a pottery designer who along with her husband took over a small pottery business in the 1960s. It became Portmeirion Potteries. The most recognizable design they produce is Botanical Garden, still popular today

Port Meirion looked amazing you could take a photo from around the pool and convince people you were on Lake Como

@TheLodgeGuys 2 месяца назад

Yes definitely. Felt like we were abroad

@kirstyr2354 2 месяца назад

You should also visit Cricceth, Porthmadog, Beddgerlet, Betws Y Coed, Morfa Nefyn, Caernarfon, Conwy, Beaumaris, Benllech, Rhosneigir, Trearddur Bay and lots if other places too. North Wales really is a beautiful place x

Great vlog - I love North Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 there's some beautiful places to stay. We enjoy camping at Shell Island 🐚 It's definitely worth going along the Llŷn Peninsula too, Abersoch and Aberdaron in particular. Also, I'd recommend visiting the Ty Coch Inn, a lovely little pub with gorgeous views 😍🏞️

What a beautiful place 😍 been to North Wales quite a few times, it is stunning, but never to Portmeirion. Great vlog xx

@ashleighdavies54 2 месяца назад

We visited here years ago! Such a unique little place

@rachelhalse8471 2 месяца назад

Thanks for another vlog guys. What a beautiful place to visit. Such a shame the original layout didn't work for you in the van, I would be so sad about the wasted money. Hopefully it will be last of the big spends for you. Can't wait to see your future Europe vlogs. Xx

@melaniekeegan975 2 месяца назад

We went on holiday with our family to Criccieth. Whilst there we visited Portmerion, I'd been when I was younger with my parents but my children and their partners had never been. Love the place, it feels so romantic. Unfortunately, it's a bit run down now but still has an amazing atmosphere. ❤

@susanrobinson2746 2 месяца назад

I did a little mini trip a few years ago around Wales stopping in a different hotel every night. Loved Portmeirion ❤x

@joeysaunz 2 месяца назад

I love you two and am loving your van videos . It’s a perfect bit of escapism as all our holiday plans are on hold with my son being on treatments . I am dreaming of going away again .

You need to watch the Prisoner it will explain the speakers.

I'm surprised you guys don't have a screen for the door and the back. You could still see out and not have to worry about bugs.

Yay! Going to Portmeirion next year, looked into staying in one of the self catering cottages but they were a bit pricey so we are staying in a luxury lodge with a lake view on a Haven park in Pwllheli just down the coast from Porthmadog. We are only going for 5 days so won’t be able to see everything. Stayed in Tywyn a few years ago and visited Barmouth and the King Arthur’s labyrinth. Watch out for sheep in the middle of the road my husband got the scare of his life when we rounded a corner and came face to face with one 😀

@karenjones9950 2 месяца назад

Beautiful place you really were lucky with the weather. I live in Wrexham and I agree North Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 is beautiful I think you should do a road trip of all the Welsh Castles and national trust homes. Chirk castle is the closest to me and Erddig hall all national trust think you would enjoy those has you are Downton Abbey fans, also checkout Plassey Holiday Park it is very close to these places and is absolutely stunning. Safe travels on your next adventure can’t wait to watch.

@tallactordude 2 месяца назад

It’s been a while, but I have seen a few episodes of “The Prisoner,” and I can definitely see Portmeirion being the location for all of the outdoor scenes. It’s a very strange show, but I found it intriguing.

@CGDGAMES 2 месяца назад

I remember going there when I was about 6 or 7 ( I'm 47 this year ) and my dad being excited about the fact the prisoner was filmed there ! Barmouth isn't far from there too where I spent many summers of my childhood at my grandparents caravan !

Why don’t you get some double sided Velcro and pop one half on the seat and the other on the cushion and they will stick like glue and not slip around when u sit on it .

@pamcradow2956 Месяц назад

Look for the first few episodes of The Prisoner (Patrick McGoohan 1967 vers) The village featured heavily, although the last episode was awful! McGoohan ran out of time & fudged a nonsense story-line. What is now The Prisoner gift shop is in the tiny house where he was supposed to be lodged. I was lucky to get good weather too and loved my day there.

@shirleymclean5895 2 месяца назад

I see that you are doing more drone shots in the videos, did you go through the drone registration you need to do even for these under 249g ones, i think everyone has to do that these days ? Can you show that process and if you got any members of the public complaining when you took shots please.

It would be nice to stay in one of the cottages or hotel rooms

@TheLodgeGuys 2 месяца назад

Yes we bet they are very nice inside

@tuzanne 2 месяца назад

We stayed in one of the cottages the 2nd time we stayed there but I would advise anyone to stay in the hotel on the beach as it’s beautiful. Andy took me there in January for a birthday treat and it was snowing so looked so pretty. We sat in front of that fire you showed after a walk around the woodland. The 3rd time we stayed we stayed in the castle which was ok but not as nice as the beach hotel.
