Discover the Dylan Thomas Boathouse - A Literary Haven

Getting There

• Car

  From anywhere in Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, head towards Carmarthen. You can use the A487 or A40 roads depending on your starting point. Once you reach Carmarthen, follow the signs for Laugharne. From Carmarthen, take the A4066 towards Laugharne. After approximately 8 miles, you will reach the village of Laugharne. Look for Dylan's Walk; the Dylan Thomas Boathouse is located at the end of this street. There is limited parking available near the boathouse, so be prepared for a short walk.

• Public Transportation

  If you prefer to use public transport, take a bus from either Tenby or Carmarthen to Laugharne. Check local schedules (such as the TrawsCymru or local bus services) for routes and times. Once you arrive in Laugharne, the boathouse is about a 15-minute walk from the bus stop. Head towards Dylan’s Walk, and follow the signs to the boathouse. Ensure to check bus times for your return trip.

• Walking

  If you are already in Laugharne, the Dylan Thomas Boathouse is easily accessible on foot. From the Laugharne Castle, head south past the castle towards the estuary. Continue along the path until you reach Dylan's Walk, which will lead you directly to the boathouse. This is a scenic walk along the estuary and is highly recommended for its beautiful views.
