Abergorlech is a village in the Welsh principal area of Carmarthenshire. It lies on the River Cothi on the B4310 road, between Brechfa to the southwest and Llansawel to the northeast.[1]

The Pont Cothi bridge, which crosses the River Cothi in the centre of the village, is a grade II* listed building.

The village is connected to Dafydd Gorlech (fl. c. 1410-1490), one of the poets of the nobility.
