  • Compact and friendly adults-only site in the scenic Towy valley
  • Just off the A40, 15 mins' drive from Carmarthen and 10 from Llandeilo
  • Welsh landmarks such as Aberglasney Gardens around five minutes away
Sandwiched between two working dairy farms in a cracking countryside setting is adults-only Towy Valley Caravan Park, with views of the green Carmarthenshire surrounds. It's also in a strategic sightseeing position between the towns of Llandeilo and Carmarthen, and just off the main A40 road. But where to first…? Perhaps have a gander at the gorgeous Edwardian cloister gardens of Aberglasney, just over five minutes’ drive away, or the National Botanic Garden of Wales and its massive single-span glasshouse (it’s the longest in the world…), about 10 minutes away. All those heady floral scents got you feeling the need for another lie-down? Head back to the park – preferably with some treats picked up in Llandeilo, about 10 minutes away, for a meal while watching the sun go down across the valley scenery. Towy Valley Caravan Park has free modern and heated shower and bathroom facilities. Washing-up and chemical disposal facilities are also available, and public transport is accessible from just outside the site if you’d like to travel the region without your vehicle.

What customers say

This neat, tranquil spot offers generous, flat pitches and top-notch, spotless ablutions, with hot, strong showers getting a special mention. Simon, the host, is consistently lauded as welcoming and helpful. Great location for exploring the Botanic Gardens and castles, with pretty country views. A bit of road noise and busy facilities when packed are minor drawbacks. Many guests keen to return.

Lee J.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Welcoming host - Simon. Met us on arrival, gave us a tour and explained housekeeping. Clean showers and toilets. A smaller site, but spacious pitches - just how we like it - no overcrowding and not busy/loud. Very peaceful. Only stayed the night, as had the weekend off work - but looking to book again for a longer stay. Close to Llandeilo and Carmarthen and we are looking forward to returning to be closer to one of our favourite beaches - Llansteffan.

Alun B.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Couldn't wish for a more friendly, helpful host (Simon); nothing too much trouble. Good to be greeted on arrival. Pitches good size and level, all with hookup (only pay for the electricity you use). Compact, well kept site. Toilets and free hot showers very clean. Situated in lovely countryside and really close to Botanic Gardens of Wales.

Disliked Not much to dislike ...Next to a road but traffic noise not really a problem. Limited number of toilets and showers but again not really a problem (decor a bit dated though)

Dylan R.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Simon is such a lovely person, made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived he honestly couldn’t have done enough for us.
Simon also gives you a welcome pack on arrival, the information is so useful.
The showers are stunning! The pressure the cleanliness and the fact you can put a heater on when you get in them.
You want for nothing.
Will Definitely be visiting again.
Couldn’t have asked for more.

Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Katie P.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Large, flat pitches - well spaced out and maintained
Stunning countryside views
Hot, powerful showers
Clean and tidy site
Host was very welcoming
Reasonably priced

Disliked Having to keep pressing the button for the shower
Site is located alongside a main road which can generate traffic noise, not that you take any notice as the birdsong drowns it out

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your comments ,I recall you were very new to caravaning and as explained to yourselves we have the longest time duration shower buttons available at the moment , to offset this we have powerful water pressure as you noticed in your review. Shower buttons or paid timers are the norm on campsites to enable the next person to enjoy a hot shower also . Good luck with your new purchase ,kindest regards. Simon

Local attractions

The Towy Valley is home to a clutch of excellent Welsh sights, from the hilltop Dinefwr Castle, a 15-minute drive away (climb up to the walls for stunning views over the countryside), to the sweeping estuary and castle at the pretty village of Laugharne (half an hour). Another must-see castle, Carreg Cennen, sits on the top of a limestone precipice around a 20-minute drive away, with views across the Brecon Beacons National Park; get your hiking boots on for walks around this area, one of Wales’ most postcard-worthy, passing by waterfalls and ponds enroute. (Still more appetite for castles? Drive to Dryslwyn Castle in five minutes – or hike over in about 45 minutes.) If you’re feeling lazy, drive to Carmarthen (20 minutes from the site) instead to jump on the Gwili Steam Railway’s antique train or dip in and out of the boutiques. Love a legend? Locals reckon Merlin was born in this market town – there are even the remains of an old oak tree named after the wizard in the foyer of St. Peter’s Civic Hall.
