The joint villages are looked after by the Kilgetty, Begelly Community Council and there is also a flourishing Community Association, with an Environmental Group, members of which keep the village flower beds colourful in the summer. They have also opened a Community Garden, which is a pleasant place to sit. 

 

 

 

The Community Centre has two halls, which are available for hire for parties, bazaars etc. or for longer terms for classes or clubs. For booking arrangements please contact Mrs Kath Skelton 01834 813331.

 

 The Church of St. Mary, Begelly, is a little gem, nestling in the trees above Kilgetty.  It is often open to visitors on Tuesday afternoons or by arrangement with the Church Wardens.

 

Kilgetty/Begelly can be reached quite easily from the M4, following the road to Carmarthen and then on the A40 and A477  Tenby road.  It also has a station with trains from London, via Swansea and national coaches stop at the Community Centre.  Local buses run through the village to all local areas.
