http://dylanthomashouse.com An inspirational place to stay, explore, dine - the home of Dylan Thomas - the finest poet of the 20th Century - do not go gentle Sun, 06 Mar 2011 07:32:58 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ http://dylanthomashouse.com/#comment-19 Mon, 26 Jul 2010 21:48:43 +0000 http://dylanthomashouse.com/?page_id=46#comment-19 This house is a LIVING house! Not old and fusty, you can really imagine that you are in 1914. I have stayed there twice and find it peaceful and homely. Everywhere has the feeling of my grandparents’ similar home. The living room is homely, the kitchen is sparse but functional, the study has a calm manly quietude, and the comfortable front room is the forbidden pleasure of childhood Christmases. The bedrooms have traditional bedsteads – but modern mattresses, (thank goodness!) There are freshly laundered bedlinen and woollen blankets to cuddle you to sleep. There are also an upstairs bathroom and toilet – very novel for the time! Annie Haden makes everyone very welcome indeed and has become a special friend – her daily tours and hospitality make Dylan’s a never-to-be-forgotten experience! So, whether you are an historian, a Dylan Thomas devotee, or just curious, you really shouldn’t miss this amazing experience.
