Dylan Thomas Birthplace

The bad boy of Welsh poetry was born in this unassuming Uplands house and it's here that he wrote two-thirds of his poetry. The house has been lovingly restored and furnished in period style, and can be visited on a guided tour (bookings advised). You can even stay the night if you're really keen (rooms £150).
