Being the county town, Carmarthen offers a superb range of amenities inc a regional hospital, mainline train station, multi-screen cinema, leisure centre, 2 secondary schools (1 Welsh and 1 English) shopping centre etc. From CARMARTHEN take the A484 CARDIGAN ROAD north as if heading towards Cynwyl Elfed, and on approaching BRONWYDD ARMS turn right on the B4301 signposted LLANPUMSAINT. Turn immediately right again, down a small lane, crossing a stone river bridge and along the straight for about 300 yards and on climbing the gentle hill, the entrance to the property will be seen on the left - identified by an Evans Bros "For Sale" board. NB: There is currently a temporary diversion at Bronwydd for bridge repair, so viewers will need to approch from the Peniel / Glangwili direction. Please check with the office for an update.
