The village was constructed by architect Sir Clough Williams-Ellis on his own private peninsula from 1925 to 1975 and is now run by a charitable trust with the aim of preserving his work, which is quite a task since he constructed a lot of it on the affordable as a personal project and out of his own pocket. It is not a residential village, it runs as a tourist attraction, welcoming day guests (admission is £7.50) and hotel residents, using the village's many cottages as the hotel accommodation.

It has been made famous as the location used in the filming of the 60s cult TV series, The Prisoner in which it was called 'The Village'. In the 2008 remake of The Prisoner, Swakopmund in Namibia was used as the setting, its architecture referencing Portmeirion's own quaint buildings.
