Where was I for my wedding anniversary? And why did I have a scarf and badge which led to a many comments about keeping an eye on my husband?…
The answer is #Portmeirion ! A mad architectural experiment, and best known as The Village from cult tv series The Prisoner.

"Where am I?" — In the Village.
"What do you want?" — Ice-cream.

Photo from The Prisoner showing Patrick McGoohan as Number Six cautiously stepping out of his house in The Village, ready for another game of cat and mouse.
It’s another beautiful day in The Village.
(This picture always reminds me of Jerry peeking his head out of his mousehole to see if Tom is around.)

Patrick McGoohan in a scene from 'Arrival,' the opening episode of The Prisoner. Prisoner: "The time of my birth is missing." Number 2: "Well, there you are. Now let’s bring it all up to date." Prisoner: "Four thirty-one a.m., nineteenth of March 1928. I’ve nothing to say. Is that clear? Absolutely nothing.”
Remembering Patrick McGoohan on what would have been his 98th birthday.

Here's one to start the week that I haven't shown for a long time. This is "Portmeirion" by Lilian Hawthorn (nee Leahy) from her post-war work in 1969. #LilianLeahy #LilianHawthorn #Portmeirion #EastLondonGroup
In the penultimate episode of ITV’s Sooty & Co (December 1998), Matthew Corbett takes Sooty, Sweep, Soo & Scampi to Portmeirion — his favourite TV show’s location. He even sports a (sort of!) Number Six outfit. #sooty #portmeirion #theprisoner #sweep #sootyandco #sootyandsweep
This iconic moment marked Rover’s first appearance in Arrival. A small Rover was shot using an air rifle, allowing the props team to cut seamlessly to a full-size version right after the crash zoom. An amazing practical effect for 1966. #portmeirion #theprisoner #rover #arrival
When Clough Williams-Ellis bought some land for a modest sum, he didn’t have a plan. Aber Iâ became Portmeirion - soon to be a ‘home for fallen buildings.’ The village has continued to evolve for over a century. #portmeirion #theprisoner #cloughwilliamsellis
It’s hard to believe that 2026 marks 60 years since filming began on The Prisoner. As you walk around Portmeirion, there is always something to appreciate, with shots from the series indelibly etched on your mind. #portmeirion #theprisoner #patrickmcgoohan #northwales
Tea tableau featuring two gorgeous cups, one teal and one indigo, with brightly painted tropical birds. The tea cozy has iridescent butterflies in teal and turquoise on black. There is a deep aqua Depression glass biscuit jar, an embroidered napkin, a scattering of faceted stones that look like blue topazes, all upon a quilted mat in light saffron with a pattern of turquoise and gold dragonflies. The tea is Palm Court, a black blend from Harney and Sons.

The cups were designed by Sara Miller for Portmeirion. There are four colors in the set; along with these two are also a grey one & a dark pink one.

Heading back to the Village for my brother’s 50th.
Latest painting for him of Portmeirion, where we grew up. Our old house is just above the village.
Ltd edition prints coming soon.
Wonder if anyone will spot Rover.

The light was so gorgeous when I visited #Portmeirion last year to research my @countrylifemag.bsky.social article - these pics should help take you away from a grey January day to sunny North Wales 😎 Happy 100th birthday Portmeirion.
