Latest reviews | Events in Ferryside | 10 Places to Stay

Ferryside still retains the feeling of traditional village life, Situated approx eight miles south of Carmarthan, its estuary setting provides spectacular views to the C13 Norman castle in the village of Llanstephan. As with so many parts of Carmarthenshire, the local, golden ,sandy beaches are close by and well worth visiting. Originally a landing place on the ferry route to Llanstephan , Ferryside was once an important point on the pilgrims’ route to St David’s cathedral. Historically an important centre of the cockle industry, the Ferryside cocklebeds are still intermittently opened to commercial pickers and at times this can lead to conflict – in 1993 the so called “cockle wars” broke out as rival gangs vied for the richest haul. Ferryside, however, is generally a peaceful place and visitors, wanting a convenient base, from which to explore the surrounding countryside ,often choose to stay here rather than the larger and more heavily populated tourist towns. Holiday accomodation is varied from the Three Rivers Hotel and Spa to Ferry Cabin a small local caravan site. New in 2008 is the Gothic Villa - a C19 self catering holiday let where the location and furnishings reflect the best in Welsh charm and craftsmanship
