Cardiff, Capital of Wales

Cardiff City Hall
Cardiff City Hall

Cardiff is a young, vibrant city that contains a wealth of attractions and things to do. Famous for Cardiff Castle, the National Museum and the civic centre, it is also known for being a centre for sport with the Principality Stadium playing host to many UK and world sporting fixtures.

Bath, World Heritage City

Roman Baths, Bath
Roman Baths, Bath

Famed for its streets of Georgian splendour and the natural hot springs which have been flowing for thousands of years, Bath is the UK's only World Heritage City. Small and compact, you can pleasantly walk along the city streets and be quite happy simply observing the architecture of the magnificent buildings.

Newport, Roman Caerleon and Blaenavon

Newport Market
Newport Market

Newport has long been the largest town in the historic county of Monmouthshire. It became a unitary authority in 1996 and granted city status in 2002 to mark Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee. It is a working city and is quite different to the more leisure orientated Cardiff. To the north of Newport is Torfaen, home to the World Heritage Site of Blaenavon.
