Two halves of a scone on a plate. The scones are topped with jam and clotted cream.

Lower Floor

Y Gegin Cartref

Many visitors are lucky enough to be greeted with the aroma of freshly baked bread and Welshcakes as soon as they walk through the front door.

Ground Floor

Y Parlwr

After passing through the Gift Shop, you’ll enter into Dylan’s world in Y Parlwr (the Parlour).

Wood beamed room with a circular, tabletop glass dome in the centre. A model town is visible through the glass. Display cases, interpretation panels, and pictures decorate the walls.

First Floor

Exhibition Gallery

The top floor of the Boathouse once hosted the family bedrooms. One was Dylan and Caitlin’s bedroom and the other, Aeronwy and Colm’s bedroom, their two youngest children. Llewelyn’s room was downstairs in the Gift Shop.

Lower Floor

Y Teras

Y Teras (the Terrace) is where you’ll find the most clues to what makes the Boathouse special.

A family visits a small shed beside a coastal path. One adult holds a young child while standing outside the pale green wooden shed, and another child peers through a narrow window in the door.

Outdoors

Writing Shed

Dylan’s Writing Shed is the first part of the property you’ll see if walking along the Wales Coastal Path from Laugharne. Many visitors mistake this for the Boathouse!
