Llandeilo tourist village plan

BBC News - Llandeilo tourist village plan targets Chinese market
Chinese visitors are at the heart of plans for a luxury £50m tourist village in rural south west Wales.
China-based Maxhard Ltd wants to build a 100-bed hotel and 80 holiday homes with a swimming pool on a 22-acre site (9 hectares) in Carmarthenshire.
The development, near Llandeilo, would be marketed to a "select international clientele".

But where in Carmarthenshire? No-one seems to know. I hope the Chinese like Windafarms. An awful lot are being planned for rural Carmarthenshire. Just the thing for a thriving tourist industry, a few massive windfarms in the most beautiful parts of Wales. Just what every tourist really wants to see. I am sure they will all be back to see more windfarms in the future.
Whose bright idea is this anyway? Talk about joined up thinking... tourism and windfarms do not mix.
