Things To Do

Carmarthenshire and The Brecon Beacons are rich in culture and steeped in history. From the apothecary’s of Myddfai to many ancient castles such as Carreg Cennen, Llansteffan and Dinefwr to its mining heritage and Herbert’s Limestone Quarry and the Rebecca Riots, the land tells us countless fascinating tales and stories. From your lodge you can choose to stay close to home and find some gems or go a little further afield and make a heritage day trip!

Whether you prefer an easy stroll or a more adventurous hike, we have got it all for you! We are central to beautiful sandy beaches such as Llansteffan beach, the Millenium Coastal Park and The Gower area of outstanding national beauty. On the other side we are on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park with famous walks like the Fan Dance (part of the SAS selection process) where you can conquer Pen-Y-Fan and be mesmerised by unspoiled nature. We also have walks starting right from your lodge so if you feel like staying close to home, it is all there for you.

Being central in the region means there are plenty of activities all around you. The National Botanic Gardens of Wales for example is a fantastic place for a day out. Not only it showcases the most astonishing collection of flowers, plants and trees, it’s also home to The British Bird of Prey Centre. In the other direction you will find the National Show Caves of Wales which is the claimed to be the biggest largest show cave complex of the UK and open to the public.

At walking distance from your lodge you will find The Kitchen at Garnant Golf Club where they serve excellent breakfasts and lunches. If you would something a little more trendy Blas in Ammanford is known for its tasty food and stylish atmosphere. We have lots of suggestions for you, also linked to activities if you are out for the day so no searching and hoping for the best, from good pub food to high end cuisine it is all available!
