The first floor has 3 bedrooms, two with double beds and a third with a triple bunk bed (1 double and single full size mattress). A cot and highchair can be provided on request. The house is very warm with full central heating and there's plenty of parking space just outside and also in a large lay-by opposite. Just a few few minutes walk away there is a 12 screen Multiplex Cinema, a 10 Lane Bowling Alley, 2 public houses and a range of restaurants including Frankie & Bennies, Nandos, KFC and McDonalds. A five minute drive gets you to Castell Coch, the historic Castle built by the Earl of Bute which has been carefully restored and is now open to the public - a little further on and you will reach the centre of the City of Cardiff and venues such as the Wales Millennium Stadium for sporting and cultural events. The house and its location offers guests the best of both worlds being close to the city centre but in a beautiful location with outstanding views of the local Garth mountain area to the front and side. For public transport there is a local railway station nearby and a bus that stops just a few steps from the house - £2-3 pp or a taxi will cost around £18 between up to 6 people. A convenient base for those looking to visit the beautiful coast of Wales, or if wanting to experience the magnificent St Davids 2 centre for shopping or if wanting a walking or cycling holiday (there is a lockable store for bikes in the garden).

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.

We had a very nice time in this house. We were here on a family trip and everyone had a blast. I would recommend this to anyone!

Lovely house! :-)
I booked with Caroline having found this house very easily on this site - the booking was just as easy & Caroline was very helpful throughout the process. We had my friends hen party here, plenty of space for 7 ladies & we had nice weather for the weekend so made use of the lovely garden for a BBQ :-) The house itself is very nice, clean & well kept. A Taxi into Cardiff is only a 10-15 minute drive, also made use of the bus stop outside the house for a shopping trip into Cardiff also. Thank you for letting us stay Caroline! :-)

Lovely Cottage
Stayed at the cottage for my hen party. The cottage was fairly close to the city center and was only 10 minutes driving time for many tourist attractions. The cottage itself was lovely- it was well decorated and clean. There was a nice seating area outside and plenty of space in the cottage.

Great place to stay
Had a lovely weekend with the girls. The host was friendly and helpful. Great place to stay. Comfortable and clean accommodation throughout. Close to Cardiff City without being right in the centre. We caught bus into city centre, the bus stop was just a few steps from house and buses ran about every 20mins. Would happily return!

Lovely stay - thank you Caroline
My family and I stayed at the cottage for my graduation and it was perfect for us. The house is slightly out of Cardiff City Centre, but is close enough to get to by car (not sure about buses, as we didn't use them). Caroline was lovely - very quick to respond to any questions and was even kind enough to help us with a request at very short notice. The welcome pack she left was greatly appreciated. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful house in a great location for exploring South Wales!
We stayed here in a group of 5 for a weekend away. The house was well kept and the communal areas were a good size: cosy without being cramped. Caroline left a welcome hamper for us, which was very kind of her. The location was excellent: close enough to Cardiff city centre for a night out. We also went to Cardiff bay and Southerndown beach. Would highly recommend this place, and would definitely stay there again.
