Accommodation & Travel

Hotels and travel:

There are many hotels close to the castle as it is situated in the city centre. Below is a list of hotels at varying price points. There are many more in the City but these might be worth looking at:

Walking distance (within 10 minutes walk)

Short taxi (within 10 minute drive)

Travel:

We will be providing a coach from St. Augustine’s Church to Cardiff Castle after the ceremony. Please let us know on the RSVP page if you would like to use the coach so we can make sure there are enough seats for everyone who needs one. If you would prefer to drive to the church there is plenty of on street parking (just keep an eye out for resident only signs!). 

Penarth train station is a 9 minute walk from the church and has trains to/from Cardiff Central around every 15 minutes. 

Due to the city centre location of the castle there is no on site parking. There are several car parks around the city and taxis can be booked to come into the castle grounds. If you’re planning on getting a taxi we would recommend you book as they will likely be busy with Christmas parties. Uber has become quite ‘hit and miss’ so it’s best not to rely on that.

Please be aware that from 11:30pm onwards, Taxi’s can be booked to come and pick you up inside the Castle grounds.
