Where are we?

 

The Vale of Glamorgan in South Wales is really easy to get to...

 

By Air

Cardiff Airport is in the Vale. Find out about flights at www.tbicardiffairport.com/en/, and once you are here you can go green by connecting to excellent public transport links.

 

By Train

A new rail link connects the airport with routes along the Vale's coast to Llantwit Major, Barry and Penarth. If you are coming from elsewhere in Britain you can take trains to the Vale via Bridgend (if coming from the west) or Cardiff Central (if coming from the east / north). Further details can be found online at http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/ or by calling 08457 484950 (local call rates apply).

 

By Coach

Local bus services can get you right across the Vale, while National Express provides a UK-wide network of express bus services.

 

By Sea

If you are travelling from Ireland, then a number of ferry operators provide services across the Irish Sea to Wales, including Irish Ferries and Stenaline.

 

By Car

If you'd prefer to visit the Vale by car then take the M4 and exit at junctions 33, 34 or 35, depending on which part of the county you would like to visit. Junction 33 is the quickest exit to take if you are visiting Barry or Penarth.
