As per the title...looking for advice on best route from Ludlow to Portmeirion and then on to Conway.

Will be in a Caterham and 981 GT4 so looking for the nicest driving route. Don't want to spend too much time on really small, tight, bumpy lanes but rather nice quick flowing A and B roads.

Scenery of course is important but secondary to the road. Ideally without loads of cameras etc..

Any advice welcome.

Thanks, Ed

I would add instead of Blaenau Ffestiniog:
A498 to Pen-y-Gwryd
A4086 to Capel Curig
A5 to Bangor
North Wales Expressway to Conwy

Come off the A4212 on to the top part of the B4391 to Ffestiniog- failure to do so will deprive you of miles of absolute bliss
