Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan

Cardiff is a compact, walkable capital that packs in a great deal. Cardiff Castle, with its lavish interiors and parkland at Bute Park, sits right in the centre, while the revitalised waterfront of Cardiff Bay offers the Wales Millennium Centre, harbourside dining and boat trips. A little further out, St Fagans National Museum of History brings the story of Welsh life to life, and the beaches of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast are an easy drive.

For event-goers in particular, the location is a real winner. Being able to walk to the Principality Stadium for the rugby or a concert — and stroll back afterwards without battling for taxis or parking — takes a lot of the stress out of a big day in the city. The same applies to shopping weekends, with the St David’s centre and the historic arcades all close enough to reach on foot, bags and all.

Cardiff is also superbly connected, with Cardiff Central station a short distance away, so it is easy to arrive by train and explore the compact, walkable centre without a car at all. Whether you are visiting for a night or a long weekend, a comfortable, well-placed and great-value base like this makes the whole trip simpler.
