Llansteffan is a small coastal village in Carmarthenshire, Wales, sitting on the estuary of the River Towy with a long sandy beach backed by dunes and wide views across to the Gower Peninsula. The dramatic ruin of Llansteffan Castle, a Norman stronghold on the headland, dominates the bay and underlines the village’s medieval roots.
Today the settlement leans on tourism and agriculture - holiday cottages, a handful of pubs and local shops see most of the trade - while walkers, birdwatchers and artists are drawn to its quiet lanes and coastal scenery. A traditional ferry link to Ferryside and a close-knit community atmosphere keep it feeling like a working village rather than just a seaside resort.
