Excellent location in a newly refurbished house, train and bus links within 5 mins, 7 minutes to Cardiff central. Restruants Marina, bars and coffee bars within a short distance.
Cooking, outdoors, especially walking, socialising and reading are some of my likes.
Award winning small town with beaches, pier, Marina and many restaurants, coffee bars and pubs all within easy access
