Hi Quintin
The stretch from Harlech onwards looks truly stunning- brilliant set of photographs. Tony and I still walking the SW Coast Path. I really enjoy following your progress.
Best wishes
Mike
It’s really special – even walking feels too fast as there’s so much to see! Hope all goes well on the SWCP
Fantastic! I love Portmeirion, have been there a few times and it’s always been a really special treat. The whole area is magical.
I agree, there’s a surprise around every corner there
Such a quaint, cute and colorful little village! Looks like this hike is taking you to unexpected places. Keep having fun! The pictures are absolute gems, as always!
Exactly, who’d have thought this place was in Britain at all! Thanks!
Must be the first time I have read about Portmeirion and no mention of what was filmed there – which is at it should be as it stands wonderfully on its own merit.
Be seeing you.
Glad you agree, cult classic though I’m sure the Prisoner may be, it’s one of a kind architecturally
Love, love, love these! You’re getting closer to the parts of Wales I love. Can’t wait!
Oh good! It’s a powerful thing when one has memories associated with a particular part of the coast
Amazing! Thank you for post the pictures.
