Penarth

 

Just across the water from Cardiff Bay, Penarth is a seaside town full of charm and character.

 

Penarth's Victorian and Edwardian founders created a resort of great elegance and beauty, and the present day town contains a number of interesting places to visit such as one of only two surviving pleasure piers in South Wales, and one of the region's top country parks.
