This perfect visit will take in all the picturesque views and experiences Penarth has to offer. A delightful stop along the Wales Coast Path, be sure to include this inviting and friendly seaside town in your travel plans. An added bonus is that it's just a few minutes to Cardiff, and you can easily walk to popular Cardiff Bay and its barrage.
Walk the pleasurable esplanade or pebble beach with an ice-cream in hand, and you can't miss the striking, early 20th century art deco style of Penarth Pier Pavilion, welcoming you to the pier. A walk along the pier in any seaside town is a must, isn't it, and Penarth is no exception. With long views out over the Severn estuary and across to England, it's a great way to experience the waters while keeping your feet dry.
The pavilion itself hosts a variety of exciting and interesting events throughout the year, and if you're considering Penarth for a gathering, you can even hire the lovely 'Room with a View', a unique venue with fantastic views at the top of this iconic building.
Penarth might just be considered one of the very best destinations for quality dining, boasting Michelin Guide restaurants serving only the very best in locally sourced produce, but make sure you fully explore this beautiful seaside town to truly appreciate its culinary delights. The town centre, station approach, esplanade, pier, marina, and not forgetting those areas just a few steps away from the centre of town are stacked with so many venues you won’t want to miss that collectively make this a food lover’s dream.
