From the owner

Our 100 year old cottage is a rare find and will be your home away from home. Close to Cardiff city centre & stadium, available for short term stays (minimum 3 nights) situated in Llandaff, Cardiff. The cottage is unusual as it is both close to the city centre but in a semi rural location, so you get the best of both worlds.

It is fully furnished in a cottage style, clean with modern facilities, two double bedrooms, bathroom with electric shower over bath, comfy lounge with TV+DVD, open plan kitchen and dining area, cottage garden and private offroad parking. [Use of the fold out single bed in the lounge for a fifth guest will incur an additional charge of £10 a night, pay cash on arrival. Additional bedding provided.] All bedding and towels are provided. All in all, really good value.

The cottage is close to all amenities, the Taff Trail and local walks, Llandaff village & Cathedral, local railway stations, bus routes, and is a few minutes drive to Castle Coch, St. Fagans Museum, many other local attracctions and 20 minutes drive from the famous Celtic Manor Golfing Resort. A convenient location for Cardiff and all of south Wales. The cottage is also on the route of the Pen-Rhys Pilgrimage Walk.

A local supermarket is within walking distance, several shops, bars and restaurants in nearby Llandaff village and a 5minute drive to a 24hour supermarket.

Cardiff city centre and everything it has to offer is only 14 minutes away (by car or train): the commercial business centre, Cardiff University, Cardiff Castle, the (Principality)Stadium, great shopping, bars & restaurants and a few more minutes will take you to Mermaid Quay and the Millennium Centre in the fabulous Cardiff Bay area. [Since 2020 lockdowns, please check venues are open.]

To the north the beautiful Brecon Beacons and to the west the stunning beaches at Ogmore by Sea and the Gower are within driving distance.

The cottage is suitable for Cardiff visitors, sports fans, families and professionals working in Cardiff who prefer a home to a hotel. A well behaved dog is welcome (£5 per night payable in cash on arrival) The property is self catering and we appreciate you leaving it clean and tidy when you go.

Longer term rentals and price deals may be considered.

Please contact host about prices after Dec 2022
