Pentrecwrt (or Pentrecourt) is a village in north Carmarthenshire, Wales on the A486 road halfway between Carmarthen and New Quay.

It was established during the second half of the 12th century, when the land was granted to the Cistercian Whitland Abbey by the sons of the local Welsh lord Maredudd of Cilrhedyn.

[1][2] Near the church are two farms, Llwynyffynnon Uchaf and Llwynffynnon Isaf (Upper and Lower Well or Spring Grove).

[3] In 1895 the Great Western Railway extended their track by building a line from Llandysul to Newcastle Emlyn.

A plaque on the wall of Bwlch Melyn commemorates the fact that the writer and poet T. Llew Jones (1915–2009) was born in the cottage.
