Top Rated Attractions in Laugharne

Search Radius (Miles)
Singleton Park

Lying between the university and the Sketty end of Gower Road, Singleton Park is the city's main green space. It's the venue for many local events from the Proms in the Park to the Swansea Show. It's a great place to laze on summer days, shaded by trees and with views over the sea or for walks on colder days. The highlight of the park is the walled botanical garden, at its most spectacular in August, but with a good array of winter-flowering plants as well. The temperate and tropical hot houses are always welcoming, with collections of cacti, rain forest plants, orchids and begonias.

Oystermouth Castle

Oystermouth Castle dates back to the 13th Century when the lords of Gower made this, rather than Swansea castle, their prime residence. The ruins are impressive and fun to explore. As well as dramatic curtain walls, towers and winding passageways. It has beautiful examples of 14th-century tracery in the windows of the chapel. The views over the bay and across to Mumbles are spectacular from the high points of the castle which sits on a small hill set back from the seafront. In summer the courtyard is used for open air performances of opera and drama and in mid year medieval tournament is staged.

Glynn Vivian Art Gallery

The Glynn Vivian was founded as a community arts center with a bequest by Glynn Richard Vivian, a member of one of the wealthy 19th Century copper industrialist families of the area. It still maintains strong links with the community and engages in many educational projects. On display are Swansea china and porcelain from around the world, old masters and a strong 20th Century art collection with works by Hepworth, Nash and Nicholson as well as the Welsh artists Ceri Richards, Augustus John and Gwen John. The gallery's temporary exhibitions on different aspects of contemporary art are well worth seeing.

National Waterfront Museum

Located within a former waterfront warehouse, the National Waterfront Museum is a popular museum that takes you back to the Industrial Revolution. The exhibits at the museum reveal the changes that took place in the kingdom of Wales in the last 300 years and the industrial and technological development that took momentum. The museum organizes guided tours, educational events and cultural activities in order to bring more and more people under its roof and acquaint them with Welsh history. The National Waterfront Museum also serves as a popular venue for corporate events, private functions and exhibitions.

The Dylan Thomas Boathouse

The great Welsh writer, Dylan Thomas, moved to Laugharne after his marriage to Caitlin Macnamara in 1937. Friends purchased the old boathouse for the couple where they lived, on and off, until the poet's death. His children were born in Laugharne but violent rows with Caitlin provoked his frequent departures. It was not until 1949, only four years before his death, that he genuinely settled in Laugharne, the place where he is buried. The house, with the Thomas family's original furnishings and memorabilia, is now a heritage center with audio-visual exhibitions, a bookshop and tea room.
