Dylan Thomas Boathouse

Carmarthen

Dylan Thomas Boathouse in Carmarthenshire is a beautifully preserved clifftop home celebrating the life and legacy of Wales’ iconic poet.

Dylan Thomas Boathouse is a beautifully preserved home and museum where one of Wales’s greatest writers lived and worked.

A writer’s life in words and objects

Perched above the Tâf estuary in Laugharne, the Boathouse is where Dylan Thomas spent the final four years of his life.
