Dragon Inn

Walking through the gates, you'd never guess this peaceful garden once served the local community in quite a different way. Dragon Inn takes its name from the old coaching inn that stood here centuries ago, and while the building's long gone, the gardens that replaced it offer a proper retreat from the Welsh countryside bustle.

Families with younger children will find plenty to explore among the well-maintained flower borders and winding paths. The garden's not enormous - you could see everything in about an hour - but there's something rather lovely about its intimate scale. A small pond attracts local wildlife, and the benches dotted around make it easy to pause and watch the world go by.

From Narberth, it's an easy drive through typical Carmarthenshire countryside. The location works well if you're staying at one of the nearby parks like Bluestone Resort or Folly Farm Holiday Park, though don't expect grand estate gardens or major attractions. This is more about gentle wandering and perhaps a picnic on the grass.

Admission details aren't widely advertised, so it's worth checking locally before making the trip. Best visited on a fine day when the flowers are at their peak - early summer usually delivers the goods.
