Swansea Council lists 165 spaces, including 9 disabled spaces, making it the most substantial official option for visitors arriving by car (Swansea Council). The centre itself is currently open from 10am to 4.30pm, Wednesday to Sunday, and entry is free (DylanThomas.com). Swansea Council lists a stepped tariff at East Burrows Road: up to 1 hour is £1, up to 2 hours is £2 and up to 3 hours is £3 (Swansea Council). The centre has also been described as having private parking for 40, with an adjacent public car park for 600 cars (WalesOnline). Limited on-street parking is available near the building, while East Burrows is described as the large public car park directly in front (DylanThomas.com). ## Other Swansea Parking Near Somerset Place East Burrows Road is not the only public parking reference for the waterfront area. Swansea parking allocation information identifies Dylan Thomas Centre, East Burrows (North) Car Park, with a post code of SA1 1RR and availability of 60 spaces (UWTSD). The allocation is subject to [ParkingEye](https://www.parksy.com/blog/appeal-parkingeye-parking-charge-notice) enforcement, so this site is a distinct option from the council car park described above (UWTSD). Limited on-street parking near Somerset Place is also mentioned by the centre's own website (DylanThomas.com). The private parking associated with the centre is listed as 40 spaces in a local guide (WalesOnline), while the adjacent public car park is separately described there as accommodating 600 cars (WalesOnline). For a short museum visit, the council's published up-to-3-hour tariff at East Burrows Road provides a clear public reference point (Swansea Council). Show map of Swansea ## Parksy Spaces Around the Swansea Waterfront Parksy lists a 24/7 space at Sainsbury's Swansea, 163 yards away, priced at £6 an hour. A 24/7 space at Horizon Swansea, SA1, is 249 yards away and costs £7 a day. Both are close enough to consider when the public waterfront car parks are busy, with round-the-clock access shown in their listings. Three further priced listings are shown within 0.3 miles: parking near Marriott Swansea with 24/7 access at £3.50 a day, parking at Llwyn Brwydrau Surgery in Llansamlet at £4.30 a day, and parking at Llwyneryr Hospital in Swansea at £4.30 an hour. These options vary between daily and hourly pricing, so the length of the visit affects which listing is most suitable. ## Busy Times and Parking Rules Around the Site The site is open Wednesday to Sunday from 10am to 4.30pm (DylanThomas.com), so those daytime opening hours are the main period when visitors are likely to compete for nearby spaces. On-street parking around Somerset Place is limited (DylanThomas.com). The East Burrows (North) allocation is enforced by ParkingEye (UWTSD), while the centre's private parking is listed separately from the adjacent public car park (WalesOnline). ## Walking From Swansea Railway Station to the Museum Swansea railway station is the nearest station to the Dylan Thomas Centre, at 0.5 miles away and around a 10-minute walk. From the station, the destination address is Somerset Place, Waterfront, Swansea, SA1 1RS. The railway station's 0.5-mile distance and 10-minute walking time are the listed access figures for the journey, while East Burrows Road remains the named public car park directly in front of the building (DylanThomas.com).
