The Garden of Wales, Carmarthenshire, is home to The National Botanic Garden of Wales; The Hywel Dda Gardens and the Aberglasney Gardens. Traditional, agricultural landscapes greet the senses and walkers can choose from 3000km of public footpaths and rights of way across the Brechfa Forest; spectacular coastal walks in south west Wales, or the Welsh farming landscape, which is littered with remote traditional farms and ruined castles.
The reed beds at Ffrwd Farm Mire and the Laugharne Burrows offer splendid birdwatching.
The Carmarthenshire coast has good beaches for seaside family holidays; seven miles of sand at Pendine in west Wales.
Echoes of Wales' turbulent history are evident in the many ruined Medieval castles. The current ruined castle at Carreg Cennen dates back to the 13th century, but this site was also used in Prehistoric and Roman times. Walking trails around the castle offer unspoilt views.
Want to strike Gold? The Romans knew that the Dolaucothi Gold Mines in Llanwrda, Carmarthenshire, were rich with seams of gold. Today there are guided tours and exhibitions and even an opportunity to pan for gold yourself!
The Carmarthen River Festival every July offers splashing good family fun ending with the popular river race.
