The Boathouse at Laugharne was the home of Dylan Marlais Thomas the famous Welsh poet who wrote exclusively in English. As well as poetry, he wrote short stories and scripts for film and radio, which he often performed himself. He won great acclaim for his public readings, especially in America, his impressive grandiloquent voice and subtle Welsh lilt became almost as famous as his poetry and short stories.
Dylan Thomas lived at the Boathouse, Laugharne for the last four years of his life during which time many major pieces of work were written - including Under Milk Wood. The Boathouse, where Dylan and Caitlin lived with their children, Aeronwy, Llewelyn and Colm from 1949 to 1953, is now a heritage centre.
Across the river from the Boathouse, stands Blaen Cwm, Llansteffan and Fern Hill, the farm that came to represent childhood innocence and of the inescapable march of time. On the far horizon are Worms Head and the Gower Peninsula where the setting for one of Dylan's most compelling short stories 'Who Do You Wish Was With Us?'.
