The botanical gardens sit within Singleton Park, close to Swansea’s seafront and the university, with a set of glasshouses running from desert to tropical planting and ordered beds outside. It’s a small, well-kept garden good for an hour’s stroll, free to enter, in a big public park. Swansea station is about 3km to the north-east.
