Llandeilo Festival of Senses (Llandeilo Christmas Weekend)
Llandeilo's free three-day pre-Christmas festival fills the independent shops, cafes and streets of this Carmarthenshire market town with food, crafts, live music and a festive lights switch-on every third weekend of November.
A genuinely well-stocked little Welsh market town with independent boutiques, an artisan bakery, multiple cafes, its own railway station, a protected historic core and a conservation-area streetscape that repays a proper afternoon rather than a quick stop.
