Carmarthenshire

Places to go

Carmarthenshire’s towns are friendly and full of interest. They’re characterful too - you won’t find an anonymous 'new town' in sight. What you will come across are small, specialised shops with big personalities, a refreshing antidote to the standardised, one-size-fits-all High Street shopping experience.

Carmarthenshire has many unique villages and communities and if you are interested in finding out more about Carmarthenshire community areas log on to www.localinfo.org.uk

For centuries, battles have raged over Carmarthenshire’s majestic hills, mind-blowing beaches and fascinating little towns. We have the castles to prove it. Today’s disputes are rather more courteous: Does the Cawdor cappuccino match the luxury of the Bluebell’s hot chocolate? Shall we canoe the wetlands, fish the Teifi, swoop down the Gorlech mountain bike trail or purr over Aberglasney’s exotic orchids? Which local cheese is smoother - Pont Gâr or Golden Cenarth? Carmarthenshire starts the debate - you slug it out!
