Compact but practical and modern, this one-bedroom apartment is ideal for everyone from solo nomads on a tour of the UK's castles – Cardiff's lies only minutes away – to romantic weekends in the city and even business trips. The heart of Cardiff with restaurants – great for candlelit dinners – and cafes – for work meet-ups – is a short drive or twenty-five-minute walk away. Though the home is small, there's room enough to comfortably fit two, though we could caution taller guests to watch their heads around the sloped ceilings. Short-stay parking is available outside the home, but Westville Road is best for all-day parking and is a five-minute stroll from the flat.

Home truths
As there is a flight of stairs to the entrance of the flat and another inside the home, it might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
Though a car isn't essential, you'll find on-street parking here should you choose to hire one.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.

Hen and stag parties are strictly not allowed at this home.

About Cardiff
Wales’ capital is a cracking mix of something old and something new. There’s an ancient castle right in the centre, with 2000 years’ worth of history to walk around. There’s a modern waterfront ‘down the bay’, where you can watch opera or ballet at the gleaming Wales Millenium Centre, tour the eco-friendly Senedd (Welsh Parliament) building or take a thrilling rib ride. There are beautifully preserved Victorian arcades to explore,...
