Carway (Welsh: Carwe) is a village situated to the north-west of the town of Llanelli in the county of Carmarthenshire, Wales, in the Gwendraeth Valley. It is part of the community of Llangyndeyrn, and had a population of 1,403 in 2021.[1]

Open-cast mining operations once operated to the north and south of the village. The northern area has been reclaimed and re-developed as the Glyn Abbey Golf Club. The former mining area south of the village at Ffos Las has been reclaimed and has been redeveloped with a new racecourse (opened on 18 June 2009) and housing.

The course is a par 70 course which is some 6202 yards in length with greens covering an area of 490m². The club was named Welsh Golf Club of The Year 2009.
