Maesymeillion is a small rural village located in the county of Cardiganshire, Wales. Situated in the picturesque countryside, it lies about 5 miles southeast of the town of Lampeter. The village is nestled amidst rolling hills, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

With a population of around 200 residents, Maesymeillion exudes a tranquil and close-knit community atmosphere. The village consists mainly of traditional stone houses, some of which date back several centuries. These homes are interspersed with lush green fields and farmlands, reflecting the village's strong agricultural roots.

One of the prominent features of Maesymeillion is its historic church, St. Meillion's. This beautiful medieval church stands as a testament to the village's rich heritage and serves as a focal point for both religious and social gatherings. The churchyard is also home to a number of ancient gravestones, adding to the area's historical charm.

Despite its small size, Maesymeillion benefits from its proximity to nearby towns and amenities. The village is within easy reach of Lampeter, which offers a range of shops, schools, and leisure facilities. Additionally, the surrounding countryside provides ample opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and horse riding.
