Lines: 20 From: Andrew MalisThe 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. Andy
