  • Peaceful 20-acre dog-friendly site with views of Llansteffan's hills
  • A 10-minute drive to Carmarthen and the beach; castles further out
  • On-site play area with swings and slides; shops and pubs in Carmarthen
You might like the sound of walks along the Welsh clifftops or be keen to explore castles, gold mines and the countryside of West Wales. Either way, you’ll need a cosy base, and that’s exactly what you get at Church House Farm Getaways. This quiet, peaceful site in Carmarthenshire is just the place for families, friends and pets to unwind in between their adventures. What do you get by way of views? Well, the 20 acres of land overlook the splendid hills and fields of Llansteffan. Facilities? At your disposal are toilets, showers and a playground with swings and slides where the kids can run off any excess energy. When you’re rather craving a day on some golden sand, Llansteffan beach is just 10 minutes’ drive away and next to Llansteffan Castle with spectacular views over the Tywi estuary. Otherwise, make your way right onto the Wales Coast Path, which runs past the site. With your dose of fresh sea air and hikes sorted, it may be time to head to Carmarthen for a little urban entertainment. A 10-minute drive away, the county town is crammed with places to eat out including pubs and restaurants, plus shops and markets. Those of you who are also fans of the sand, sea and that sort of thing can locate swims and shipwrecks at Pembrey Country Park (35 minutes' drive). Other options are paddleboarding from Saundersfoot beach (40 minutes) or sea expeditions from Tenby, such as kayak sessions through caves and jet ski safaris to Caldey Island.

Liked Our little one love the park. Site was very well maintained - grass cut lovely, toilets and showered were spotless. Owners were lovely too - very friendly and helpful. A little shop onsite with a few bits you’ll need - at very good prices! Thanks for hosting us on our first camping trip in our new van. ☺️

Route directions

When travelling from the west along the A40, please continue to follow the A40 until you reach the first big roundabout (next to B&Q). Take the road signposted for Llansteffan from the roundabout. Do not come off the A40 before this point, as otherwise there is a very steep and difficult hill. The road leading to the site is a single track, so to ensure you do not meet oncoming farm traffic and have to reverse, please turn onto Church Road, drive past the first layby and pull into the second concrete layby on the right (at the top of the hill). Then, call Bonnie or Shane using the details provided upon booking. They will stop anyone going down to allow you to travel the short distance up to the site.

Local attractions

When you’re not navigating your way around the Wales Coast Path, other places that will bring you a little closer to nature include the acres of countryside, formal gardens and nature reserve at the National Botanic Garden of Wales (20 minutes’ drive). Smaller but just as spectacular are Aberglasney Gardens (half an hour) and Green Castle Wood (20 minutes’ walk). Those of you who’d like to have a good poke around some historical places will have great opportunities around here too. Dinefwr Castle (35 minutes’ drive) and Kidwelly Castle (25 minutes) are some of the local fortresses. Mining history is on the menu at the National Trust’s Dolaucothi Gold Mines (55 minutes). From further back in time, the National Trust’s Newton House at Dinefwr (35 minutes) has an 18th-century deer park and a Welsh country house with a nature reserve on all sides. There’s the Gwili Steam Railway (20 minutes) too, if you fancy climbing aboard a steam train. Looking for those family-friendly places that can keep the kids well entertained? Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (35 minutes) and Oakwood Theme Park (40 minutes) have that down.
