Welcome to South Glamorgan, Wales

South Glamorgan is a preserved county on the south coast of Wales that includes the capital city of Cardiff, the scenic Vale of Glamorgan and part of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast. Cardiff is both a city of historic attractions and contemporary culture. The old city docklands—called Cardiff Bay and Mermaid Quay—are now trendy hotspots for dining, nightlife and water sports, while Cardiff Castle boasts 2,000 years of history. Just across the bay, the Vale of Glamorgan is the antithesis of the capital. A valley of green, rolling hills and small villages, the Vale boasts such gems as the picturesque market village of Cowbridge, the megalithic Tinkinswood Burial Chamber—which dates from 4,000 BC—and the Victorian seaside town of Penarth. The latter is known for its gardens, particularly Cosmeston Lakes Country Park, and its popular pier and esplanade from which Waverley and Balmoral paddle steamers sail to the Somerset coast in summertime. And in Barry, the Vale’s largest town, visitors can take in the Tall Ships Festival every September and the Grade 1 listed Dyffryn Gardens.

The highlight of South Glamorgan, however, is arguably the county’s dramatic coastline, part of which is the Glamorgan Heritage Coast, a 22-km (14-mi) stretch of protected area. Its miles of footpaths and country lanes take in rugged cliffs, secluded coves and golden beaches, making it a favourite destination for cyclists and walkers.
