Llanddeusant is a small, sparsely populated rural community in Carmarthenshire, Wales, set on the northern slopes of the Black Mountain and bordering the Brecon Beacons National Park. The area is dominated by upland moor, rolling pasture and heather-clad ridges, with hillwalking and mountain-biking routes that lead to the nearby upland lakes such as Llyn y Fan Fach.
Traditionally centred on sheep farming, the locality combines agriculture with a modest tourism economy driven by outdoor recreation and heritage interest; the place-name itself reflects an old church dedication ("church of two saints") and the landscape is rich in folklore, notably the Lady of the Lake tale tied to Llyn y Fan Fach. It remains a predominantly Welsh-speaking community with strong local traditions and conservation concerns shaping modern life.
