Bright and bold, this apartment isn’t for the faint of heart. But as long as you’re not in the market for neutral tones, there’s a lot to like about this quirky home. It’s ideal for groups of friends visiting Cardiff, as there’s lots of communal space – we’re especially fond of the balcony area for summer evenings around the barbecue. Best of all, it’s not too far from the action – vibrant Wellfield Road is a 5-minute walk, Cardiff city centre is ten minutes away by cab, and Principality Stadium is just over 3 miles away.
The Plum Promise
- No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
- Hosts we know – With track records of high-quality hosting.
- Rated ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot – Exceptional service before, during and after your stay.

There’s a modern waterfront ‘down the bay’, where you can watch opera or ballet at the gleaming Wales Millenium Centre, tour the eco-friendly Senedd (Welsh Parliament) building or take a thrilling rib ride.
