Location
The Ceridwen Centre is tucked away in an area of outstanding natural beauty yet only one mile to the nearest main road linking Carmarthen. This makes it extremely easy to reach from the East and only 25 minutes from the M4/A48 route that ends at Carmarthen. Average journey time from London is 4 hours by car or train.
Directions from the East via Carmarthen along the A484
Once you’ve come to the end of the M4/A48 and you’re at Carmarthen, take the right signposted to Llandeilo at the first roundabout. Go straight over the next one. At the second, take the left signposted towards Cardigan, then a left at the next. After having gone past the hospital you should get to the final roundabout, take the right and you’re now on the A484 to Cardigan. After having driven for about 12 miles/25 mins you will enter the small village of Rhos. Following the main road still, pass the Lamb Inn on the LHS and follow the 200 metre stretch of hedge. Turn/fork left just after a white house on the RHS (there is a large blue sign at the top of the road). Keep going down the lane for at least a mile, having passed a couple of houses and a phone box about half way. Ceridwen is set back on the left, just past the main farm and before the hairpin bend.
