AboutPlas Brondanw Gardens are in Snowdonia, not far from the coastal town of Porthmadog. The gardens are the creation of the renowned architect, Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, the creator nearby Portmeirion. Plas Brondanw was Sir Clough and Lady Williams-Ellis’s home. Today, the gardens are owned by a Charitable Trust; the Clough Williams-Ellis Foundation. The gardens are in two distinct parts. The formal garden with its topiary, borders, ponds, statues, slate terraces and series of ‘rooms’ forms part and the less formal ‘woodland’ garden forms the second part. Both elements of the garden are equally important.The garden is open to the public all year. During the summer months a café operates from the site, and visitors enter the garden through the café. At other times of the year, or when the café is closed, there is a QR code to scan to pay for entrance to the garden.Plas Brondanw itself is a gallery, also open to the public.
