Neighbourhood and environs
Cardiff is the cosmopolitan capital city of Wales situated by the coast with excellent links by car to London (2 hours), Bristol (40 minutes), Brecon Beacons mountain range (40 minutes), the stunning Gower Penninsula (1 hour) and historic Castles too numerous to mention here. The city centre itself is a 20 minute walk from the house or 5 minutes by bus/taxi and is centered around the beautiful Cardiff Castle, Museum, and Millenium rugby stadium. There are unique arcades with original boutiques and cafe's as well as Wales's largest modern shopping centers and excellent restaurants, all easily explored on foot.
Our house is located in a lovely vibrant part of Cardiff within a self contained town with excellent and varied restaurants and food shops a 2 minute walk away. Around the corner is a superb arts center - http://www.chapter.org boasting a cinema, gallery, theatre and cafe/bar which is a relaxing family friendly space. Also within easy reach are the Deli's and restaurants of Pontcanna.
We are ideally located within easy walking distance of numerous parks - Thompson park for picnics and feeding the ducks(5 minutes walk), Victoria park for an outdoor paddling pool, cafe and children's playarea (10 minutws walk). Llandaff fields for bike rides, playarea and access to the Taff trail riverside cycle path leading to Castell Coch in one direction and Cardiff Bay in the other.
There is so much to do within walking distance that a car may not be necessary, but we are open to the offer of a car swap! Cardiff is well served by public transport with Cardiff Bay waterfront and Llandaff Cathedral a 10 minutes bus ride away from the house. There are also a range of childrens and sporting activities such as Cardiff international pool (with water slides), ice rink and white water rafting centre, Welsh folk museums and lake/seaside walks, all within a 5 mile radius of the house.
