Just north of the centre, this place gets neighbourly with the stylish bars, restaurants and shops of Cribbs Causeway.

Transportation could not be easier – Temple Meads train station is steps away.

Scope your flight status on the real-time screens, then hop on the shuttle to the Bristol Airport (10 min away).

Walking distance to all the Bath hot spots (or should we say hot springs? The Roman Baths are 3 min away).

Commercial district digs in the Pontyclun business parks, 15 mins from Cardiff and Swansea.

All done up in very contemporary furnishings, but still maintaining a cool, woodsy vibe consistent with its surroundings.

Set deep in the New Forest National Park, they're not kidding. This may be the most thatched cottage you've ever stayed in.

No excuses for missing your flight – the free shuttle will get you to the airport in less than 5 min.
