GARDENER'S WORLD
Fans
of the gardens and woodland in and around Portmeirion may want to pick up
the latest issue of "Country Homes and Interiors" Magazine.
Within it, gardener and "Portmeirion" co-author Stephen Lacey talks about his "favourite view", and a piece from Lacey's chapter from the "Portmeirion" book (available from Portmeirion itself for £19.99) is reproduced.
Portmeirion is also mentioned in the February/March 2007 issue of "In Britain" magazine, in an article about Snowdonia. The author of the piece Jackie Newey, however, doesn't appear to have visited since the 1980s, stating; "I discovered early that the peacocks are good for sketching as they strut and pose for hours."
