Once a mining region that until the twentieth century supplied coal (or 'black gold' as it was known far and wide) present-day Cardiff is a popular holiday and tourist destination.

Places to visit while in South Wales should include the city of Cardiff for excellent shopping and dining opportunities and in particular the newly renovated Cardiff bay area. The city is a great base to go castle hunting offering amongst others, Cardiff Castle on its doorstep and the fairytale-like Castell Coch.

The Vale of Glamorgan in general is an attractive district offering lavish countryside as well as sandy unspoilt beaches in resorts such as Dunraven Bay and the Isle of Barry.
