Little Cwtch Camping

Don’t worry about being short of things to do – the only known Roman gold mine in the UK, Dolaucothi Gold Mines, is five minutes’ drive away. There’s a whole host of market towns further out for things like independent shops, pubs, castles and activities – just scout out Llandovery (20 minutes), Llandeilo (20 minutes), Lampeter (20 minutes) and Cardigan (an hour and five minutes). For the active types among you, hike away in Caio Forest (10 minutes), Brecon Beacons National Park (20 minutes) and the wild and remote Mynydd Mallaen (half an hour). For two-wheeled adventures, there are mountain biking trails in Brechfa Forest (35 minutes). After some historic locations? National Trust sites include Dolaucothi Estate (10 minutes), Newton House (25 minutes) and Dinefwr (25 minutes). Castles and houses lie in wait in the Towy Valley (half an hour) too. Of course, save some time to check out the plant life at the National Botanic Garden of Wales (40 minutes) and to make the most of Carmarthen’s (45 minutes) shops, cinema, bowling and museum.
