Waterfront apartment accommodation

Bay View Apartment, by Solace Stays
We enjoyed the stay, loved the location and the apartment was clean, welcoming and had all you needed for a comfortable stay.

Central Studio w/ Roof Terrace
Was amazing, would stay again

Emerald Flat Cardiff Bay/City Centre- 2Bed & 2Bath
The apartment is very well located right along the water and close to many shops, restaurants, and walking paths. The weather was gorgeous during our stay which made the visit even more enjoyable.

Cardiff Bay comfortable 2-bed flat
A perfect place for our weekend trip away for the rugby. The flat is a 10 minute walk from Cardiff Bay and the City. Secure parking on site, key pick up and drop off was simple. Everything was well communicated and clear. The space itself is a home from home, with a good amount of space for a two bed flat. The outdoor balcony overlooking the river was lovely. If you need a base to explore Cardiff and arrive by car, look no further! Thanks Huw!

Cosy apartment Cardiff bay 5 mins to centre
Fabulous location and easily walkable between both the exciting city centre and the culturally inviting Bay area. This accomadation quite rightly boasts its remarkable views of the river, is peaceful and private, modern, comfortable and yes, as cosy as stated! Seriously, the underfloor heating in the bathroom is a joy! This was my first visit to Cardiff and as a writer and tourist I can absolutely say my inspirations were tweaked! The hospitality of Gemma and Shaun was friendly, accomodating and respectful! Perfick!

Great location, in a lovely cottage. 40 minutes from Waterfall country, which was lovely walking. Morning and evening dog walks from the door into countryside. Cottage well equipped and very clean

A wonderful house to stay in, me and my friends had the best time! The house was immaculate and Alex was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, with lots of useful information cards/books in the house too!

Woodbank
We spent 2 weeks at Woodbank House and had the best time. The highlights are the kitchen and the grounds. The skies at night are amazing. Bess is a terrific host, perfect communication and so helpful. Thank you so much, I hope we get a chance to stay again! X

*Luxury Coastal Retreat* Family friendly sleeps 10
We had such a lovely family stay at Pearls place for a wedding at clevedon hall (a 10 min walk away). I’ll start by saying the house is BEAUTIFUL! The photos really don’t do it justice. It had everything we needed and more and felt right at home as soon as we stepped in. All the bedrooms were so comfy and being on a quiet street, slept incredibly well. The house is in the perfect location, within walking distance of a great selection of pubs, restaurants and with an incredible coffee shop just round the corner (Fawn, 100% recommend). There were some great recommendations of things to do in the welcome pack. Pearl was really helpful with any questions we had and responded very quickly. Thank you Pearl! We all left very relaxed and will definitely be back!

Belgravia Mansions - Peaceful Georgian 3BR Seaview
Lucy's property was exactly as we had hoped and there was nothing that could be improved upon. It has a beautiful decor and is very clean and comfortable with all amenities that we needed. It was lovely to have a balcony which had a partial sea view. The location is ideal with parking nearby and it is easily within walking distance of the seafront and its bars and restaurants. We will definitely try to book again if we revisit Weston-super-Mare.

Spacious 2Bed 2Bath, River Views, Pool, Parking
We had a fantastic stay! The flat is really spacious, perfect for a family of 5, spotlessly clean, bright, and very well equipped. The terrace overlooking the river, along with access to the gym, sauna, and jacuzzi, were real highlights. It's just a 5-minute walk to Cardiff Bay, which was perfect. Helen was extremely responsive and clear in all our communication. Highly recommended
