Set on the top floor of a unique Victorian conversion, this modern pad has everything you'll need for a Cardiff getaway. There's the sleek kitchen, where you can whip up breakfast before exploring or tasty dinners to enjoy with a glass of wine around the table. Fast wifi makes working from home a breeze if you're in town on business – the dining table can double as a desk – and the in-ceiling speakers make listening to your favourite albums or podcasts easy. Or just sink into the plush sofa and rest weary legs after a long day wandering as your favourite show streams on the smart TV. 

Location-wise, this is a residential neighbourhood popular with students. You'll find grocery stores, eateries and local pubs along City Road and Albany Road (both ten minutes on foot), with even more options in the city centre, a twenty-minute walk away. Whether you consider yourself a sports fan or history buff, a foodie or fashionista, Cardiff has something for everyone – plus, if you fancy a night on the town, you can't beat the vibrant bar scene, either.

Tomorrow's Surprise

Desk / Workplace

Single-Level Home

Balcony / Patio

Outdoor Seating

Located on the ground floor of a converted Victorian house, this ground-floor apartment has arguably the best position at the address. This is down to the private terrace, accessible through the bedroom's glass doors, which is a lovely place in which to sit and soak up the sunshine on summer afternoons.

The interior escapes the gloomy fate of many a ground floor flat thanks to the skylight above the kitchen, which fills the space with natural light. There's a reassuring quality to the furnishings and fittings, especially the minimalist kitchen and the dark bathroom.

Located on the outskirts of Roath, the local area has a laid-back feel popular with families and young professionals. That being said, the bright lights of the Welsh capital aren't too far away — the restaurants and venues of Cardiff Bay take little over ten minutes to reach in the car.

Bluebird Feather

Amazon Prime

Netflix

Extra Pillows and Blankets

Private Entrance

While this apartment only takes up part of the ground floor of a Victorian house, it still benefits from some of the architectural quirks from the period. The big bay window, for instance, is particularly generous when it comes to natural light, while the high ceilings and large rooms lend a sense of airiness.

The interior design completed in more recent years is bursting with characterful touches, like the bold pattern wallpaper, hanging bare lightbulbs and the flourishing house plant in the main living space. Along with these aesthetic considerations, the basics are nailed, too — one look at the dark, sleek kitchen and bathroom will show you what we mean.

The surrounding neighbourhood of Plasnewydd has a residential feel but many of Cardiff's main attractions, like the castle and Bute Park, can be reached in around half an hour's walk.

Good Mornin' To You

Paid Parking On Street

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.

Welcome Hamper

Nice to haves

Located just a short walk from Cardiff's buzzy centre, this bright home is pretty large when you take into consideration there's only one bedroom. The interior is quietly impressive too, with warm wood floors, big bay windows, and green views of the tree-lined suburban street outside. The sleeping quarters are dominated by soothing neutrals and the sleek grey bathroom has a tub for a relaxing soak last thing at night. The surrounding neighbourhood of Plasnewydd has a residential feel, but you don't have to venture far for livelier scenes. The Principality Stadium takes just over half an hour to reach on foot if you want to catch a rugby game or a concert, while National Museum Cardiff is a fifteen-minute bus journey.

Dragon Mountain

Hot Tub

Wellness & Fitness

Parking On Street

Bold and quirky, this apartment is perfect for a business trip, solo explorations or a romantic city break. Only a twenty-five-minute walk from Cardiff's city centre, you're close to shops, vibrant restaurants and museums. And if you time it right, you can also catch a game or live music performance at the famous Principality Stadium. The open dining, living and kitchen space is bright – thanks to the large windows – and comfortable for two. There are some free on-street spaces a short walk away – your host will be happy to point them out to you.

The Edwards

Child Friendly

Located near bustling Wellfield Road, and just a twenty-five-minute walk from Cardiff city centre, this apartment in Roath offers a convenient base for guests looking to enjoy the city while staying slightly set back from the action. The home's open-plan kitchen, dining and living area provides a highly functional space where you can socialise or relax between days and nights in and around Cardiff. With a modern aesthetic across the apartment, getting a good night's sleep is pretty much guaranteed from this comfortable spot. 

The Bale

Private Washing Machine

Private Dryer

Step-Free Access

Situated in the vibrant area of Roath, everything you need for a city retreat is on your doorstep. The apartment has more than enough communal space for entertaining and is a relaxing base for those exploring the city. You'll find plenty of restaurants and cafes on Wellfield Road, seconds away. Although if you do fancy cooking yourself – you'll find the famous Cardiff Market in the city. Located within walking distance of the centre – you needn't worry about driving or taking public transport. 

The Jones

Balcony

Perfectly positioned in the popular area of Roath just by vibrant Wellfield Road – you'll have everything you need for a relaxing stay within walking distance. The interior is bright and contemporary, and if the weather's on your side the apartment benefits from a small balcony. The city centre around a twenty-minute walk away – however, you'll find plenty of restaurants and cafes on your doorstep on Wellfield Road. If you're looking to explore further afield – you're in the ideal location to jump on a bus to Cardiff Bay. 

The Thomas

Contemporary and convenient, this Cardiff apartment makes for a handy base whether you’re travelling for business or leisure. The decor is simple but attractive, and this home comes with all the essentials so you can really call it home. The super-fast wi-fi is great for those working during their stay, and while there’s no desk, you can comfortably work from the dining room table. There are plenty of restaurants and takeaways nearby for when you don’t fancy cooking, and the sights and shops of the city centre are just a twenty-five minute walk away.

Pets

This walk-up, pet-friendly apartment in the heart of Cardiff’s city centre puts you in an ideal spot to explore the Welsh capital with many of the city's best restaurants, shops, entertainment, attractions, and landmarks within easy walking distance. While it’s certainly not the biggest home in our collection, it comes with plenty of thoughtful touches like Egyptian cotton bedding, Netflix and board games, and the desk space on hand is ideal for those looking to work remotely. With bike hire available and your host able to arrange car rentals too, sightseeing around town and further afield is as easy as can be. 


The Diff

Espresso Machine

Multiple Sets of Keys

In a prime spot just a stone's throw away from the city centre, this smart apartment is the perfect place for a getaway in vibrant Cardiff. Fresh, modern and minimal, we love the nods to the building's heritage in the original fireplace and vintage-style tiles in the bathroom. Though on the smaller side, the all-in-one living/dining/kitchen area still feels bright and roomy. Two extra guests can sleep on the contemporary sofa bed, but we'd say this home is a better base for two. Begin your mornings with breakfast in the bay window before immersing yourself in history at Cardiff Castle, exploring the shops and cafes along the Victorian arcades or taking lunch waterside at Cardiff Bay. For dinner, we recommend grabbing a bite at one of the excellent restaurants, pubs and bars close by, then finish off the evening with a glass of wine in the lounge.

Little Cloud

Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish space. This sunny south-facing ground floor apartment opens up to a private sheltered courtyard garden through trifold doors. The apartment is located close to the city centre, provides free parking, and offers a super comfy Super King Bed. Please note that the property has a narrow walkway for access, with the narrowest point measuring 46cm, limiting larger items from entry. Situated in Plasnewydd, Cardiff, this retreat is not suitable for children. Guests have complete access to the property, and check-in and check-out times can be adjusted subject to availability and a fee. With no pets allowed, this urban oasis ensures a peaceful stay where respect for neighbors is highly appreciated. This is your home away from home in Cardiff, so please treat it as such by caring for it during your stay.

Sunny City Retreat

Private Parking

Parking On Premises

This newly built Cardiff townhouse may have crisp, contemporary exteriors, but inside, it's a more homely picture. Out with the minimalist and in with curated antiques and artwork, this bolthole suits those looking for a more characterful, lived-in feel. With bedrooms spaced apart over two levels, it's perfect for friends or colleagues who appreciate a little more privacy. And set just a lazy ten-minute stroll from Cardiff's centre, its location is spot on – as is that private parking space when it's time to say adieu.

Paint a Picture

Bright and bold, this apartment isn’t for the faint of heart. But as long as you’re not in the market for neutral tones, there’s a lot to like about this quirky home. It’s ideal for groups of friends visiting Cardiff, as there’s lots of communal space – we’re especially fond of the balcony area for summer evenings around the barbecue. Best of all, it’s not too far from the action – vibrant Wellfield Road is a 5-minute walk, Cardiff city centre is ten minutes away by cab, and Principality Stadium is just over 3 miles away. 

The Welsh Dragon

Fireplace

The decor of this suite deserves lots of special attention – antiques, books, and knick-knacks are all souvenirs of your hosts' travels all over the world, meant to immerse you into a feeling of wanderlust as you explore the city of Cardiff from the comfort of a Victorian villa. Staying on Cathedral Road is about as close to centre as you can get while still staying somewhere with a tranquil atmosphere, putting you close to great restaurants, museums, and famous sights. But let's focus on the studio for a moment. Not only is every piece of furniture a statement, you'll also find that the smaller details deserve plenty of praise. Luxurious bedding, a Nespresso coffee machine, a huge four-poster bed with a pillow menu to match your preference, and high-end toiletries, all testify to the hosts' desire to make sure you have a fantastic stay. 

Ascension

DVD Player

Courtyard

Located in the heart of Cardiff, this cosy townhouse is a fantastic choice for exploring the Welsh capital. It's perfect for those who like to be in the mix of a city and close to all the action but far enough to be able to switch off and relax at the end of the day. 

Cloaked in light, neutral shades and contemporary interiors, this home is one that you'll love spending time in. We particularly love the open kitchen and dining room, ideal for socialising and spending time with family or friends, gathered around the stylish dining table for meals at home. 

There's so much to explore in Cardiff, you'll be glad you're just a seven-minute walk from the iconic Cardiff Castle. If you love museums, you're in luck – the Museum of Cardiff and the National Museum Cardiff are both less than fifteen minutes away by foot. You can even hop on a water taxi to Cardiff Bay, full of historical sites, beautiful scenery, and great restaurants.

When your feet can no longer carry you, head home to relax in the garden with a nice glass of wine. Your kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up homecooked dinners, or you're an eight-minute walk to Quay Street, where you'll find a string of delicious restaurants. 

The White Townhouse

Games Console

This pleasant two-bedroom home is just five minutes from Cardiff city centre, and ten minutes from the M4, making it an excellent base for a visit to the area. Principality Stadium is just a twelve-minute car ride away, and you can be at Motorpoint Arena in eight minutes – if you’re in town for an event, the location of this home couldn’t be better. 

The house is comfortable and convenient with a local shop under a minute from the front door, and creature comforts galore. The in-ceiling audio is a particular favourite – you can listen to your music throughout the home. 

Visit one of the many nearby cafes or bakeries for breakfast, before heading into the city centre for a spot of shopping. Cardiff Bay is only ten minutes away and is jam-packed with restaurants, bars and shops, as well as offering activities like boat trips that explore Cardiff’s coastline. 
Beautiful Cardiff Castle is also within easy reach of this lovely property and is a wonderful place to spend a few hours. Pack a picnic to enjoy in the grounds and make a day of it. 

After a busy day out, what could be better than returning home to slip into a hot tub? Pop open a bottle of bubbly and get some R&R on the private terrace. 


City Bliss

This attractive apartment is a great base for two in Cardiff. You’ll find this home in Pontcanna, one of Cardiff’s most popular areas, close to an excellent selection of great bars, restaurants, and cafes. Ideal for business or leisure, the cosy home includes a dining table that doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace, and a well-equipped kitchen. We love the charming decor – this is the kind of holiday home you can’t wait to return to. 

The Meadows

Board Games

Cafetiere

Free Parking

Secured Parking

Mosquito Net

Located in the friendly Pontcanna neighbourhood about twenty minutes' walk from Cardiff city centre, this attic flat is a daydream of cosy corners and secret spaces. Set over two floors in a large Victorian house, the home features lots of the owners' finds from across the globe, from crochet rugs picked up in Brazil through to wooden African masks. Pick up books from the shelves and leaf through next to the large sash windows, or simply curl up on the leather sofa for a Netflix movie night. Our favourite space is the attic, reached by a winding staircase with a cosy bed tucked under the rafters and draped in netting — sweet dreams are pretty much guaranteed. The expansive Portcanna Fields are just across the road, while the Principality Stadium is a quarter of an hour's walk if you want to catch a game of rugby.

Dancing In Daydreams

Desk

Perched above a bakery, this apartment enjoys a prime position near Sophia Gardens. Since it's located on the first floor and spread over two levels, it won't be accessible to everyone. That said, you'll find a stylish interior with a traditional bay window that we love. Best suited to romantic city breaks, the open-plan layout is intimate. Plus, this home offers practical laundry facilities for longer stays. What's more, some of Cardiff's loveliest shops and eateries are only a stone's throw away.

Begin the Moment

Lift Access

Stair Gates

Just a fifteen-minute walk from Penarth's seafront, beach and pretty pier, this stylish modern home is part of a period building with a surprising past. A landmark in the town for the past century, it was once a motor repair shop and petrol station. Recently converted to luxury apartments, there's plenty of the Art Deco exterior left for fans of design and architecture – nowhere more so than the communal courtyard to the rear.

Set over two floors, this home boasts panoramic rooftop views from its huge living room windows and a really high-end finish. Styled to perfection with parquet flooring, sumptuous furnishings and a contemporary kitchen, it's a classy home with plenty of room for up to six. We particularly love the bright bedrooms, with their comfy, oversize beds and ensuite bathrooms, and there's even a small balcony so there's somewhere to sip your coffee in the sunshine.

Just a ten-minute drive from the bright lights of Cardiff, there's plenty to see and do just here if you're looking for a seaside break, and there are all sorts of places to eat and drink in the neighbourhood. And if you're missing your fitness routine, this place has the perfect solution thanks to an arrangement with the gym on the ground floor.

The Old Motor Shop

Right in the centre of Cardiff, this apartment is ideal for city explorers who want a practical base with all the necessary comforts. Though the space is on the more minimal side, we love the amount of natural light that floods in, while the balcony is a great spot to share a glass of wine at the end of the day. The location is the real perk of this home – right in the city centre, you can walk to The Museum of Cardiff, Cardiff Market, Cardiff International Arena and Cardiff Castle.

Return to Cardiff

This charming two bedroom apartment is located in "The Bank", a historic landmark building near the waterfront in Cardiff Bay. The property boasts new facilities with the character and charm of an old building. The apartment features a bedroom with a Super King bed and ensuite shower room, as well as a bedroom with a King Size bed and a family shower room. The open plan kitchen/dining/lounge area provides the perfect space for relaxation. Guests will have access to one allocated secure parking space. The location is convenient, as there are several supermarkets, independent and chain restaurants, bars, cafes, and pubs within walking distance. All national trains come into Cardiff Central, while Cardiff Bay station is just a five-minute walk away. Bookings are protected by a Deposit Guarantee, Guest Guarantee, and public liability provided by SUPERHOG, a risk management partner.

Bulrush Cottage

Air Conditioning

Barbeque

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

We think this family home is a real beaut. The cosy lounge is the perfect place to unwind with a movie night – and with access to Netflix and Prime, you'll have plenty of choices – while upstairs, a sumptuous clawfoot tub beckons after a long day on your feet. Keen chefs can cook up a storm in the well-appointed kitchen – it has everything you need, whether you fancy a Sunday roast or a fresh-baked treat. During the summer months, head out into the private garden and enjoy your dinner alfresco. Whether you're sipping wine on the deck while watching kids bounce on the trampoline or bubbling under the stars in the hot tub, it's our favourite spot to relax in the summer sunshine. 

Although you're about a half-hour walk (or five-minute drive) from the train station, shops, pubs and eateries in Newport's city centre, Ridgeway's peaceful atmosphere and fantastic green spaces feel miles away. Take an invigorating stroll across the Ridgeway, admiring the views toward Cardiff – it's about ten minutes on foot – then pop by the local cafe on top of the hill for a coffee and a cake after your walk. For something a bit more hearty, grab a delicious meal at the restaurant down the street – or for a bit more buzz, hop on the train and be in Cardiff in twenty minutes flat.

Ridgeview

Catching our eye with its colourful living area and terrace, we think this flat in hip Pontcanna is perfect for two style-conscious couples. If alfresco dining is out of bounds due to drizzle, the breakfast bar can squeeze everyone around it for indoor meals. While the bedrooms are a little snug – the second requires one guest to climb over the bed to reach their side – they are cosy spots to rest after a day exploring Bute Park and Cardiff city centre (twenty-five minutes on foot or ten by bus). Closer to home, you'll find quaint eateries and cosy pubs just a short stroll away.

The Wild Flower

Exercise Equipment

Located in the centre of the vibrant seaside town of Penarth, close to Dingle Road train station, this apartment takes inspiration from the elegant art deco design of Penarth Pier Pavilion to create a cutting-edge contemporary space to call home.

A wall of windows illuminates the generously proportioned open-plan living area and kitchen, which is where we envisage you spending most of your time cooking in the modern kitchen, socialising around the breakfast bar and relaxing on the chic blue sofas. Two large double bedrooms make for soothing sanctuaries of calm at the end of the day, with both enjoying access to their own private en-suite shower rooms.

Penarth is known as 'The Garden by the Sea', and thanks to the communal yoga lawn, you'll be able to enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of a residents' only outdoor space. Walk a few minutes towards the sea and uncover a former Victorian seaside resort that's retained its charm while benefitting from an influx of creative cocktail bars, innovative restaurants and independent shops.

Highlander

Luxury Toiletries

Throws

Standing tall in a Georgian neighbourhood, this Newport home is just as handsome on the inside as it is on the outside. There's a great range of colours used throughout, with several shades on the walls and furnishings lending character. The kitchen is large and well-equipped enough for a handful of sous-chefs to work under the watchful eye of the head cook, while there's even a garden that uses tiers to work with the sloping land available. We think they've done a smashing job with it and you'll appreciate it during the summer months. At the top of the street, there's a park with a lovely view of the city, the centre of which only takes fifteen minutes to reach on foot. A little further afield, there are attractions towards the mouth of the River Usk, including RSPB Newport Wetlands, a quarter of an hour's drive away.

Remain In Light

Offering marvellous views of the Bristol Channel, this well furnished apartment is particularly appealing for couples and families looking to explore the West of England. While its duplex layout and first floor entrance mean it's not universally accessible, the home fits plenty of attractive furnishings and amenities across its levels, with an efficient living room, kitchen and dining area leading upwards to two cosy bedrooms (one with its own en-suite). You can also enjoy an outdoor terrace for quieter moments, memorable views of Weston-super-Mare's once great Birnbeck Pier, and being only twenty minutes from the town's main attraction – the appropriately named Grand Pier.
