Set amongst beautiful secluded gardens yet a stone's throw from the centre of Cardiff. St Mellons is the ideal base for visiting the many attractions of the surrounding areas, including the City of Cardiff.

Europe's youngest capital city has so much to offer, from historic castles and classical concerts, to vibrant street festivals and tranquil parks.
