Beautiful place to walk in Cardiff. Parking available but limited so I would imagine it gets full at peak times. Good coffee from cafe, good range of food to choose from and lovely place to sit and watch the world go by ...

A nice place to walk. You can eat something and have a coffee there. Small parking lot and sometimes you have to wait for someone to leave. Lots of places to park electric cars, there are places for the disabled.
