Site of ancient Cistercian Abbey in West Wales
Whitland Abbey was a Cistercian abbey near Narberth in West Wales from the 12th to the 16th century. Now a ruin, part of the site is open to the public at all times. The public part is looked after by the Friends of Whitland Abbey. There is limited car parking nearby, but no toilet or visitor facilities.
There was a house here before the monastic settlement. The Welsh prince Hywel Dda created his laws near here about 940. The name Whitland comes from Ty Gwyn ar Daf, the White House on the Taf river.
This site is not connected with the modern Holy Cross Abbey, Whitland.
