Perfectly positioned in the Welsh capital, this handsome townhouse is only a nine-minute walk from the ancient Cardiff Castle. In the vicinity, you'll find many restaurants, bars, and tea rooms dotted about, as well as riverside picnic spots and popular music events in Sophia Gardens. Across the River Taff, you could be watching a game of rugby at Principality Stadium within seven minutes of closing your front door – so this truly is as central as it gets. Tucked away from the buzzing social scene outside, this renovated retreat has home comforts to help you settle in. Wake up in a comfortable king-sized bed, then wander down into your spotless kitchen for pod coffee and a fry-up. When the sun shines, we recommend eating alfresco in your private garden. After a fun day in the city, come back and pick a book from your dining room shelf. Or, bring some DVDs with you and enjoy a movie night in this snug living room.

There are beautifully preserved Victorian arcades to explore,...
