Restless ghosts, ancient castles, interactive museums, nautical pubs and a restaurant dedicated to an infamous pirate, you can enjoy all this and more when renting a serviced apartment or holiday letting in the capital city of Wales.

In the centre of the city you will find Cardiff Castle and what better place to start exploring this historical city than right here. Take a tour of the castle and view the remains of the Roman ruins on which the castle was built as well as a Norman fort and The Welsh Regimental Museum. The castle was once the residence of the Marquis of Bute around 200 years ago and you can view his living quarters, his vast collection of art and the lavish décor of gold, marble and spectacular murals. This beautiful castle has a fairytale quality to it and is well worth a browse.

A place that the kids, and you, will just love is Techniquest. This interactive museum allows kids to participate in experiments, understand how scientific processes work and make plenty of noise and express themselves in the music section. A great way to make science more understandable and enjoyable for children.

Your aparthotel or serviced apartment in Cardiff is within a short distance of Salt. This delightful bar is situated on Mermaid Quay and here you can enjoy a quiet afternoon drink amidst nautical themed décor whilst watching the boats pull in and out of the sparkling bay.

If you want to scare yourself stupid then why not participate in the Llandaff Cardiff Ghost Walk where you will take a torchlight tour of an eerie ancient village, spooky dark lanes, dark, mysterious graveyards and unnerving old ruins. Discover terrifying stories of Cardiff’s restless, ghostly inhabitants and learn the history of the city as well as the local folklore. The tour guide has a gift of storytelling that will keep thoroughly absorbed as well as checking behind you every step of the way. This tour is sure to send shivers down your spine.

A fantastic restaurant that is just a stones throw away from your apartment rental or holiday let in Cardiff is The Sir Henry Morgan, named after the famous Welsh Privateer. The traditional décor boasts dark wood and chandeliers and no doubt Sir Henry would have felt right at home here. The service is excellent, the food is delicious and the prices are very reasonable. The seafood sharing platter is really good.
