A nice, bright and warm building too which makes it very pleasant to work in. If you have special needs and find it difficult to locate books, you can ring the staff and someone will look the things out for you before you come.

The local history and the Welsh studies shelves are particularly well stocked with books, video CDs and DVDs. There is also a good selection of audio books. Well worth checking this place out.

If you have only a few minutes to spare then just go and ask the staff what help that they can provide. You'll need a couple of hours to make your visit worthwhile.

Originally built in the 19th century, this was first known as Pembrey New Harbour. The marina…read moreopened in 2004 and the whole area is still being improved as part of the Millennium Coastal Park project. The harbour has commercial (fishing) and pleasure craft. There are pleasant walks around the whole harbour area with great views of the beaches, lighthouse, and across the Loughor Estuary to the Gower Peninsula. (The Millennium Coastal Path also follows the coast in both directions from here.) You can find some memorials around the harbour which commemorate the flight of Amelia Earhart, the first woman to cross the Atlantic by air. In 1928 her seaplane 'Friendship', flown all the way from Newfoundland, landed here and Amelia and her two pilots were welcomed by the people of the town. There is a huge long stay, and a short stay, car park (pay and display) - just follow the signs. It's about the same distance to walk to the town from either. There are public toilets in the long stay car park but they leave something to be desired, having been subjected to a degree of vandalism recently (there are much better toilets at the station).

A really nice old building and I always envy the staff who get to work in such a nice place…read more However it does smell quite odd! I did find the member of staff of reception quite obnoxious though and she seemed to not care at all. They take council tax money at the guildhall, however for some reason if you only want to pay some of the bill or wish to discuss your bill, then you need to go to the townhall by the marina. Which is a little annoying.

Swansea City council have started to centralise and stream line public services in the county hall…read morebut the Guildhall does still operate services from there. One certainly needs a map and the coast guard on standby as you can seriously get lost in the place with the long expansive corridors. Swansea City university also holds their graduation ceremonies in the Branwyn hall which is a real treat and certainly gave us loads of happy memories to take away with us. It also plays host to a wide range of classical concerts from the very best European and world organisations. It also has been used as a location for Doctor Who and in the next series of Torchwood.

Unfortunately, I am giving Plantasia 4 stars even tho it does deserve 5. Since most of the reviews…read moreon this site were written a lot has changed. Where Plantasia is set has been completely changed over the years so the little caffe at the entrance has now gone. I drearily miss the caffe that greeted visitors and also a large gift shop that I used to love as a child which has also been reduced to a shelf or two of toys etc. Im still giving 4 stars tho because they have a new attraction of meerkats and an array of exotic turtles which is awesome.

I'm not sure why the picture for this is of the overpass leading to the shopping area. Why not put…read moreup a picture of plantasia! In fact I'll put up a photo now. But yes, it's a great place, I would defintely recommend it to anybody. It's not huge, but they squeeze a lot into a little place. It has nice birds and monkeys inside, though I think they really could have made bigger housing for the smaller creatures inside, especially the huge snake.

Otherwise you have to use revolving doors, which can confuse at times! All the main council services are available at the main reception desks, although you may have to make an appointment if you want to see someone in particular. There's no parking in adjacent to it, so you'll have to use the main car parks in Neath. However, you can normally park for free on one of the nearby roads and walk the short distance back to it.
