There is also a detailed guide available, The Dylan Thomas Trail,[2] which helps visitors walk the route but also describes the poet's time in the area.

The Trail begins on the coast at the Central Hotel in Llanon, then meanders through upland countryside to Plas Gelli, Tal-sarn, the mansion where Dylan and Caitlin lived for part of World War II.

[4] The Trail continues past the National Trust's Llanerchaeron estate and then along a disused railway line[5] to Aberaeron, where Dylan had a number of friends, including Thomas Herbert the vet and Dewi Ianthe, the battery man.

[8] Plas Llanina was once the home of Lord Howard de Walden, who encouraged Dylan to write in the apple house in the garden.

Another walk is the town trail[15] around New Quay, taking in the house where his aunt and cousins lived,[16] as well as Dylan's favourite pub, the Black Lion, where Augustus John used to exhibit.

[23] The coast path then continues southwards, passing Yr Hendre farm, near St. Dogmaels, where the sixteen-year old Dylan camped with a school friend in 1930.
