Hit the road

Rent a car in Cardiff on Turo to explore the city, routing past Cardiff Castle (or catching a game at the Millennium Stadium, if you’re lucky), then head out of the metropolis and into the rolling Welsh countryside. Spend a little time on the South Wales coast or the Gower Peninsula, or perhaps drive north from Cardiff until you reach Brecon Beacons National Park.

Cardiff Castle

If the ancient walls of Cardiff Castle could talk, they’d tell tales of Roman victories, Norman rule, and medieval banquets. They even sheltered Cardiff’s citizens in World War II.

Brecon Beacons National Park

Wild and windswept, the Brecon Beacons stand ready to enthral adventurers. But the lovely villages and market towns have cosy cafes to duck into for less outdoorsy types.

South Wales Circuit

Take a 333-mile loop of South Wales starting in Cardiff and finishing in Chepstow. On your travels, you’ll see the Gower Peninsula, Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, and Britain’s smallest city — St David’s.

Driving tips in Cardiff

Purple squiggle

Watch out for game days

When the Six Nations rugby is on (or any other major event at the Millennium Stadium), look for road closures and be prepared for some lengthy delays.

Avoid rush hour

Outside Cardiff, the Welsh roads can be pretty quiet. But just like every other city, Cardiff has a rush hour in the morning and late afternoon, so plan your trips around peak times to avoid getting caught up.

The M4 motorway

The main route in and out of Wales is on the M4 motorway, which runs from London to Wales and sits north of Cardiff. The charge to cross the Prince of Wales Bridge on the M4 from England to Wales was dropped in 2018, meaning motorists can travel over the River Severn for free.
