Lady Margarets Park to Pembry Country Park.

which is the better (easier-flater, less twisty) route please?
The section which concerns us is down from Newtown to Buith Wells.
A 483
or
A489 & A470.

mmm, if you take either route you are bound to have bends in any Welsh road, if it was me i would take the direct route, remember that they are both good roads, buses trucks etc use them, sorry doesnt seem to help, but no one easy route, i dont think

It's farm country, they take lorries and even the odd bus down the A483. If I remember the road correctly, it's only the 'top half mile' is the worse bit.

Due to the ViaMichelin site showing the section of A483 in question as being full of bend warnings, we ended up doing A489 then A470. What a beautiful route. Stunning scenery, light traffic and even in the odd twisty section or two, it tended to be more sweeping bends where 40 to 45 mph was perfectly safe. A lovely route that I would definitely do again.

Enjoy the area, if you are on the cycle track towards Llanelli I can recommend a break in the Pavilion Cafe in Pwll, on the cricket ground.
