Cardigan straddles the River Teifi in west Wales, where the tidal waterway supported its growth as a market town and small port. Known in Welsh as Aberteifi, it lies a few kilometres upstream from the Teifi’s mouth on Cardigan Bay, amid wooded riverbanks and coastal countryside. Cardigan Castle, associated with the Lord Rhys, hosted the first recorded eisteddfod in 1176, a defining event in Welsh literary and musical tradition. The town centre remains a local meeting and shopping place, while the estuary connects it with the Ceredigion coast.
