The Prisoner's village is actually a resort in Wales.  It is the
Hotel Portmeirion, in Penrhyndeudraeth, Wales.  It is credited at
the end of (at least) the final show, and it was included in an
article about Wales several years ago in Travel & Leisure (I
think I have it saved somewhere, but it would take me a while to
dig it out).  If you want to find it on a map, it is on Tremadoc
Bay, and is close to Portmadoc.

I've always wanted to visit there ever since I saw the original
broadcasts of the show, but have never made it, even though I
have been to Wales (so close, and yet so far).  Unfortunately, I
heard that they had a major fire several years ago, but I think
they rebuilt and restored the place.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone reading this that
has actually be there.
