Ammanford (Rhydamman) is the fourth largest town in Carmarthenshire. Historically it was a C18 stopover point for stagecoaches after fording the river Amman, a centre of the coal industry and site of a famous anthracite strike when miners took over the town for ten days. Ammanford hosted the National Eisteddfod in 1922 and 1970 and was granted Fair-trade status in 2002. Ammanford is close to many attractions such as Aberglasney Gardens. The restoration is an ongoing project: nine acres of landscaping, two woodlands and a cloistered garden – mostly wheelchair accessible. The portico of the Aberglasney house is special – it was stolen, lost for 150 years and then recognised and reclaimed during a Christie’s sale. Accommodation locally is plentiful, from the Tregib Arms in Brynamman - walking distance of the Brecon Beacons to the CI8 converted watermill at Glynhir now a country house hotel (swimming and fishing available.) For those with an artistic flair, The Glynhir estate offers Mansion House B& B plus lovely self-catering cottages – courses in painting, quilting, photography and sculpture offered. If you prefer to view rather than create, the Heart of Wales railway has routes to Ammanford passing some of the prettiest scenery in Wales
