Map of the UK

Boncath is a small rural village and community in Pembrokeshire, Wales, sitting on the A478 and surrounded by rolling farmland with the Preseli Hills and the Cardigan Bay coast within easy reach. Its position on a regional route between Cardigan and Tenby gives it a quiet, accessible feel while still being distinctly countryside rather than a commuter suburb.

The local economy is anchored in agriculture with a scattering of small businesses and services for village life. Historically the settlement grew around a 19th‑century railway link - now closed - so there is a hint of Victorian transport heritage alongside older farmsteads. Community life is lively for a village of its size, with a village hall, local chapel and pubs hosting events, and a mixed Welsh‑ and English‑speaking population that keeps seasonal shows and local traditions going.
