Llandeilo. Perfectly located? We think so...
Feeling like you're a million miles from anywhere, yet only 20 minutes from the M4, 1 hour from Cardiff, and 3 hours from the M25. And where travelling by train is actually a pleasure. Close enough to walk to the restaurants, pubs and fine boutique shops of Llandeilo, yet also within walking distance of the Brecon Beacons, the Tywi River and Dinefwr Park. Located at the foot of the Black Mountain, yet also within 30 minutes of an 8-mile long golden beach. Download Printable Directions (PDF)
"From its hill-top vantage point on the northern bank of the River Tywi, the small Carmarthenshire town of Llandeilo in west Wales overlooks some of the most serene views Wales has to offer... The confection of pastel-painted Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian houses that cluser around the centre hint at Llandeilo's illustrious past as a thriving market town, a legacy that continues today."
