The great views

  • Small family-friendly site with spectacular Towy valley views
  • Under half an hour's drive from the edge of the Brecon Beacons
  • Herb boxes and hedgerows on site for foraging
Escapades through Welsh countryside, adventures in the great wide open and boating jaunts through a National Park… At Quarry Lodge Camping, a tiny family-friendly site in south Wales less than five minutes’ drive from the Carmarthenshire village of White Mill and 10 minutes from Carmarthen town, you’re all set for an active getaway. Quarry Lodge is less than half an hour from the edge of Brecon Beacons National Park, where you can live your best outdoorsy life with abseiling, biking, walking, riding, rock climbing, canoeing and rafting or, for a challenge, head for the Brecon Beacons an hour and 45 minutes away. If coastal walks are more likely to put the wind in your sails, head seaward with a jaunt to New Quay, just under an hour from base, to join the Wales Coast Path along Cardigan Bay. When your legs are demanding a rest day, chill out on site – it’s quietly rural and you can put your feet up while taking in views over the spectacular Towy valley. When you’re rested just enough for a stiff-legged walk, meander into White Mill (10 minutes' stroll), the local village. If your feet are still protesting, you can stick around site instead: get that barbecue stoked up and load it up with supplies from the White Mill shop. Want to give a little extra flair to the tired old munch? Wander over to the wild hedgerows and herb boxes, where you can forage for a little something to liven it all up.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Excellent communication before we arrived with useful notes about how to get there. A very warm welcome from Linda when we arrived, fantastic new shower/toilet block with great washing up area inside too. The owners are clearly working hard to create a lovely place with handmade wooden details too. Beautiful surroundings.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: It was great to have parking next to the pitch. There was plenty of room, a short walk to the showers and kitchen, all on flat ground. A quiet area, I particularly appreciated the birdsong and it was also nice to hear the lowing of the cows. A wonderful countryside soundtrack.
Linda was very welcoming and helpful. We couldn't have wished for a better campsite.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Loved the new amenities block with simple but really great touches such as a kettle to be able to easily boil water. Views are beautiful and the hostess, Linda, was very friendly and helpful. They even allowed campfires by providing drums to burn the wood in. Overall an excellent experience.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: The owner, Linda was very welcoming and had a lot of knowledge of the local areas, places to eat etc. It was quiet, facilities were clean and had everything we needed for one night stay. Directions were easy to follow. Beautiful scenery. Level pitch.

Disliked: Understandably they are building a new shower block but it did mean the games room was nonexistent. It wasn't mentioned at the point of booking which was disappointing when we arrived. Linda was very apologetic.

Local attractions

History buffs should surely be fans of this part of Carmarthenshire: Dinefwr, Llansteffan and Kidwelly castles are all within about half an hour, the National Trust has some fab properties nearby (Dolaucothi Gold Mines and the house and park at Dinefwr are musts) and you can nab a glimpse into the past under someone else’s steam by climbing aboard the Gwili Steam Railway, 10 minutes away. Prefer to get out and about for a stroll in nature? The National Botanic Garden of Wales, where you can traipse through acres of countryside, formal gardens and nature reserve, is a little over 10 minutes from base, and the spectacular Aberglasney Gardens are within 15. If all the rural is beginning to grate, head straight for Swansea (45 minutes away) for a taste of the urban – there are museums, markets, pubs and restaurants to check out, as well as plenty of shops. Make a 45-minute beeline for Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo or Oakwood Theme Park when the kids start to whine, and let their pumping adrenaline get them back on side.
