Nestled amidst 500 acres of lush parkland and boasting 8 miles of golden sandy beaches, Pembrey Country Park offers a unique combination of natural beauty and modern amenities.

Carmarthenshire Council say the South West Wales Tourism award recognizes the park’s continued commitment to excellence, sustainability, and delivering memorable experiences for families, adventurers, and nature enthusiasts alike.

Pembrey Country Park will now represent the region at the National Wales Tourism Awards on 27th March 2025.

Carmarthenshire Council say that as a result of receiving SPF funding, the campsite will introduce pay-as-you-go pitches to align with the targets set by its green agenda.

Additionally, a new amenity block will be constructed to replace the original facility from the time the campsite first opened.

Cllr Hazel Evans, Carmarthenshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Tourism, expressed delight at the recognition: “This award is a testament to the hard work, passion, and dedication of our entire team at Pembrey Country Park. We are incredibly proud to receive this honour and look forward to representing South West Wales at the national awards.”
