The Carmarthenshire County Museum occupied a lovely old house that was previously a palace of the bishop of St David’s and visitors to the museum can still see the bishop’s peaceful chapel. Concentrating on Carmarthenshire’s past, the museum’s displays range from Roman gold through to Welsh furniture and there is also a reconstruction of a schoolroom. The palace’s grounds too, are open to the public and the delightful parkland is ideal for a stroll and a picnic.
