We liked the location - it's easy to take the bus to the City Centre. There's a wonderful pub in walking distance: The Four Elms with a cosy beer garden in the back.

Beautiful home located by a golf course. Our rooms consisted of a large bedroom upstairs and a kitchenette downstairs. Throughout, everything was immaculate. The property is within walking distance of several eating establishments and about four miles from Cardiff city centre. It’s a short walk to the train station. By chance, we happened to be in Cardiff when King Charles paid a visit so the city was alive and vibrant.

    Our two-night stay at the Holiday Home in Cardiff for New Year's Eve was overall enjoyable. The house comfortably accommodated six of us and had a convenient location near major shops such as Asda, Lidl, Costco, and the football stadium. The gated neighbourhood provided a sense of security, and ample parking was appreciated. Despite the rainy weather, the tiny garden was a non-issue. Unfortunately, the lack of good visibility hindered our ability to enjoy the city's fireworks.

    A lovely little town house in a great location to all the local amenities. It was like going home from home as it had all the household appliances you would require when staying in a holiday home. The beds are a little small but extremely comfortable. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend 😊

    This holiday rental was outstanding. The location was perfect, 10 minute’s drive out of the city centre yet located in the country with fields all around us. My son was especially impressed with the hot tub and the pond where we went and fed the fish every day. Inside of the holiday home was lovely and clean and well equipped with everything needed for a self catering stay. The owners went above and beyond to help us and our stay was fantastic

    beautifully spacious & very nice roof garden terrace area with cushions and the sorts provided . lastly , I’ve booked apartments / holiday homes on booking.com back to 2018 and in my time haven’t met a more accommodating host than Dave . whether it was a quick response or the reliability to help us with our key problem at 1:30 AM - Dave has no problem helping us as quickly as he could ! would definitely recommend staying here - as I will be coming back!

    We had a wonderful stay at Ty Mynydd Holiday home - which is a separate annex of the lodge with a little private garden area. We were very comfortable and were spoilt for choice with the included breakfast items. We loved the home made jam. Bed and sofa bed are comfortable, and bedding is lovely and soft. Lisa is a brilliant host and we felt so welcome. It's really easy to get to from the m4 and the village is lovely. Highly recommend staying here
