South Wales also boasts the largest castle in Wales, Caerphilly Castle.

Soaking up the history of one of the most remarkable mediaeval castles in western Europe makes for a fascinating day out for all the family.
You can also find history in Cardiff, the capital of Wales, from Cardiff Castle to the shopping arcades dating back to the Edwardian and Victorian times. Yet Cardiff has become known as a modern and creative city with lots to entertain visitors including theatre shows, comedy and gigs, alongside restaurants and bars for the full evening experience. Local delicacies include the Glamorgan sausage. Cardiff Bay is an attractive spot for cafés, bars and restaurants.
Sporting fans will also enjoy South Wales. Cardiff is the home of Welsh Rugby Union and Wales is considered one of the most successful nations in the sport. Check the fixtures for upcoming home game matches.

Wow, we were so honored to be the first to stay in this absolutely incredible flat. It's rare to find a place like this outside of a hotel and especially in a quaint small town like Mumbles, this place is world class. Great location, comfortable beds great kitchen, great views... the works. Couldn't recommend it more. Sarah was a great host and very responsive.
