People are raving about an “Italian-inspired town” that’s found right here in the UK.
Travel enthusiast, Amy Francis, has been raving about the “must-see” destination after visiting herself. Her TikTok guide is one of many videos online which have been created to encourage people to visit the gorgeous spot.
Portmeirion, in North Wales, is a little village that’s so stunning it’s been compared to Italy by travel enthusiasts online. And when you see the breathtaking scenery and architecture, it’s easy to see why.
Amy’s video shows what the village looks like in the glimmering sunshine on a gorgeous day, and you’d easily think it was somewhere abroad. The views are absolutely gorgeous, and the buildings are as pretty as a picture.
From the scenery to the tempting food she shows off in the clip, it looks like the perfect place to visit for a stay-cation. Sometimes we have it pretty good here in the UK.
Since the video was shared, it’s been liked over 95,000 times, and people were quick to comment too. Some even said they love the area so much they got married there.
One person said: “I went there last month – it was so pretty.” Another wrote: “This is the closest I’m going to get to Italy.”
A third replied: “This looks like such a cute weekend away.” Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: “Dying to go again while it’s sunny – it was beyond perfect.”
People who live near the area also admitted it’s “beautiful”, and said it’s the perfect place to visit on a sunny day. It seems as though the video Amy created really does live up to the hype.
If you’ve never heard of it before, Portmeirion is an “enchanting Italianate style village” on the coast of North Wales, situated in Gwynedd. It’s a lovely spot for families to spend a little break away.
Back in 1925, Welsh architect Clough Williams-Ellis acquired the site, which later became Portmeirion. He had been looking for a suitable site to develop what he dubbed as an “ideal village” for many years. Then, when he heard that the Aber Iâ estate, near Penrhyndeudraeth, was up for grabs, he was quick to make an offer.
His aim was to demonstrate how a naturally beautiful location could be developed without spoiling it. He wanted to show it was possible to enhance the natural background by means of sympathetic development.
The Aber Iâ estate comrprised of everything he wanted to carry out his architectural experiment. This included steep cliffs overlooking an estuary, woods streams and several old buildings.
