Llangadog Station serves the village of Llangadog and provides a departure point for riverside camping at the popular Abermarlais caravan and camping park.

The village has several pubs, one of which, the Telegraph Inn, is just across the line from the station.
3 miles south, the post office within the picturesque village of Bethlehem is particularly popular during the Christmas period with people travelling great distances to have their envelopes specially franked. At Garn Goch, also 3 miles away, stands one of the largest Iron Age hill forts in Europe. More information about Carmarthenshire is available from visit-carmarthenshire.co.uk.
