Yr Hen Beudy is situated near the beautiful village of Llansteffan, Carmarthenshire.
The village store and the welcoming Castle Inn pub are within walking distance, along with the stylish Welsh Tapas bar, The Inn At The Sticks, the beach, and the coastal footpath. Llansteffan is on a peninsula where the Towy River flows into Carmarthen Bay.
There are two beaches, one dog-friendly all year round and the other between October and April, and miles of unspoiled coastline to enjoy via the Wales Coast Path. The panoramic views over the Tywi Estuary and Carmarthen Bay from Llansteffan Castle will take your breath away.
Attractions convenient for Yr Hen Beudy include the National Botanic Gardens of Wales and the British Bird of Prey Centre, Oakwood Theme Park, Manor Wildlife Park, and Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo.
Visit some speciality museums, including the West Wales Museum of Childhood, the National Wool Museum, and the National Coracle Centre. Visit the Original Tin Shed Experience, a tiny museum that recreates life in a WWII shelter, and Dylan Thomas’ writing shed in nearby Laugharne.
Tom Jones sang about the green, green grass of home, and Richard Llewellyn wrote about how green his valley was – they could have been describing this gentle Carmarthenshire landscape, which Dylan Thomas also immortalised in his work.
Whether you’re a couple escaping for a romantic break or a family wanting to ditch the screens and spend time doing something different, you’ll love your time at Yr Hen Beudy.
