With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Llanelli, 18 miles away, has to offer. Parc y Scarlets, The Play King and WWT Llanelli Wetland Centre alone make the drive out worthwhile. Merthyr Tydfil is another wonderful option. It’s 20 miles away and boasts a range of fascinating things to do. BikePark Wales, Brecon Mountain Railway and Aberdare Park are just the start.
