Portmeirion 2019

[christinecsr7]

 

We return to Portmeirion on the 23rd– 25th of June for what has become our annual homage to the association between the Lotus 7 from the cult TV series The Prisoner and the village.  

It was a Series 2 Lotus Seven that was driven by Patrick McGoohan in the opening titles of the television series however in the final episode, “Fall Out”, it was replaced by a series 3 disguised as the original,  as it had been sold during the filming. Graham Nearn drove the car to the set for the final episode to be shot and found himself recruited as an extra. He can be seen dusting off the car and posting the keys through McGoohan's letter box, prior to the hero's arrival. 

We stay in the village for 2/3 days – the accommodation ranges from the main hotel to the castle or houses in the village – the choice is yours. Each evening we dine in a private room either at the hotel or castle. 

During the day there are plenty of choices of activities in the local area as well as spending time in the village and gardens.  This year Dave has arranged with the Snowdonia GP Karting circuit for a Le Mans style endurance (2 hours) team event with the opportunity at the end to take our sevens onto the circuit in return for a donation to their charity.  

We will also have the opportunity to put on a street parade (Three video clips from 2017 and 2018 below) on the Tuesday morning and after the village closes for day visitors you can take your car to be photographed in some of the iconic spots in the village.

The event’s organiser for the village said of our first visit: "Light, agile and super cool, it was a delight seeing so many of these iconic cars making their way through such a beautiful location.” And last year Malc was recruited by the village to be a camera man for the ITV series to be screened early in 2019. 

The maximum number of people we can take is 60 and we have 30 rooms allocated to us.  Below you will find a list of rooms and the 6 room reservations already made! 

Drop me a PM or email to reserve yours stating which room you would like ( or a map of the village if you are not sure) – first come first served!
