Peaceful site with sea views, 15 minutes' drive from Carmarthen Bay
A 15-minute walk from a beach, small shop and a village pub
Half a mile from trains to the Gower Peninsula and Cardiff

You can see the sea from Ferryside Farm Caravan Park and Campsite, a peaceful west Wales getaway. This splendid site is 15 minutes' drive away from beaches that are famed all over the world, including Cefn Sidan's seven miles of secluded and silky sand, the stunning Amroth Bay and the iconic sands and surf of Rhossili. For families, this spot is splendid for days of rockpooling and crabbing, with Ferryside beach just 10 minutes’ walk away; theme parks and similar are further away (around a 40-minute drive or so), and there's a kids' play area five minutes' walk away behind the rugby club. For quick, tasty food, there are a couple of eateries, a village pub and a small shop within 15 minutes' walk of the site. Kidwelly, the nearest village after Ferryside, has another pub, Indian and Chinese takeaways, an off-licence and a newsagents. Keep the car or take the train: Ferryside is only a few miles off the A484 between Carmarthen and Kidwelly with quick access to both towns as well as Swansea and Llanelli, and half a mile from Ferryside rail station where you can steam ahead to the Gower Peninsula, Milford Haven, Tenby, Pembrokeshire and Cardiff or on to Crewe, London and Manchester. Facilities at dog-friendly Ferryside include a shower and toilet block. Guests can pick their own pitches across the one large field, although just take note that the top of the field is a 200-metre walk from the toilets, so it may help to bring a mobile toilet just in case you're caught short. This is a quiet, peaceful site: no radios/music are to be played after 10pm, and if you wish to party, this isn't the site for you.

Liked: This was our first adventure in our 1997 campervan and Ferryside Farm was perfect. It’s a quiet place with everything you need and the facilities were always clean. We had a picnic bench on our pitch, water supply and views of the estuary. The owner Phil greeted us, got us settled in and gave us advice on the local area. He even came to say good bye before we left. The village of Ferryside is a short walk, with a convenience store and a good coffee shop. There was also a community cafe open at times. A trip on the Ferryside Ferry is well worth it, we did the Sunset tour.

Route directions

By car: On approaching the first roundabout in Carmarthen turn left onto the A484 for Kidwelly. After about 500 metres you will pass Morrisons on the left-hand side. Go through the village of Idole (careful - there is a speed camera!) and continue for another three miles passing the Star Forge Garage on the right. A mile down a hill, take the turning for Ferryside located on the right-hand side (opposite the turning for Llandyfaelog). As you're approaching the village, turn right immediately before the humpback bridge. Ferryside Farm is the first property on the right. By train: From London, Bristol, Cardiff, or Swansea: the village of Ferryside can be reached via Arriva and First Great Western. Please check times before travelling. On arrival head down through the village passing the school on your right. After about 1.5 miles you will cross over a humpback bridge where the property can be accessed turning left into a no through road and then right into the driveway.

Local attractions

Naturally, the beaches – and the castles – are first: a paddle on Ferryside beach gives you a chance to see 12th-century Llansteffan Castle, on the other side of the Towy Estuary. It’s not much of a surprise to find out that this perch has been protected since at least Iron Age times – there was once an Iron Age fort here built by savvy ancestors protecting their section of bay from invaders. If you want to pop over for a look (as you should), it's a half-hour drive to get there. A fine collection of other castles are in the vicinity – it is Wales after all: 12th-century Kidwelly Castle and 11th-century Carmarthen Castle are the closest, but Laugharne is within 17 miles, Oystermouth 27, Newcastle Emlyn 28 and Carew 36. Once (or before) the castles are conquered, Carmarthen Bay, the Gower Peninsula and neighbouring Pembrokeshire have so many award-winning beaches you are hereby challenged to get around them in one trip. If you then fancy something inland, get to Colby Woods and Gardens or Pembrey Country Park, which has a dry ski slope, wildlife trails, horse riding and the longest toboggan run in Wales. Two types of racing are within 15 minutes of Ferryside: motor at Pembrey Racing Circuit and horse at Ffos Las Racecourse.
