Family-friendly holiday rentals in Cardiff

We wanted a peaceful place to rest after a busy day with the kids, somewhere we could feel like we were on our own. This was perfect a fantastic safari style lodge with everything we needed, a beautiful lake with many different birds and other wildlife, and all in a short drive of bike park wales and Pen-y-fan. The hosts were great they never bothered us! But they were always just a phone call away. Can’t wait to return for next trip.

Amazing host she went above and beyond even giving us ibuprofen and snacks for our hangovers!! The house was easy to find, quiet even on a match day, very clean and had everything we could possibly need. Thank you for such a lovely stay we couldn’t possibly ask for more. 10/10 would recommend

Perfect place to stay for a group. Has everything you could want. Nice and quick walk into the centre. Manon is a fab host and checked in with us after the first night to see if we needed anything :) all round extremely happy and we all agreed we’d stop in the property again if in Cardiff

Perfect place to stay for a family with young children. Very hospitable and helpful hosts. Our highlights were the waterfalls walks, the National Showcaves Centre, Techniquest in Cardiff and climbing Pen Y Fan. Lovely house, great location.

What a lovely little country retreat, peaceful and restful yet with plenty to do on your doorstep. The walk to the country pub, through the village was a highlight. The kids loved the horses, rope swing and of course jacuzzi. We will definitely stay again.

Firstly, our host was very responsive and friendly and even checked in after our first night to see if we needed anything! The bungalow was beautiful and homely and the location couldn’t have been much better with the town a 5 minute drive away and a lovely park 5 minutes in the opposite direction! The board games, blankets and tea and coffee were lovely extra touches that made it homely! The cinema room is great and so cosy. The only thing that didn’t meet our expectation was the hot tub because it’s in a pergola that needs some tlc and only one of the jets seemed to work! (Maybe it was just us not working it properly!) it also wasn’t very hot. But either way we loved our stay and it was only 15 minutes from zip world which is what we travelled for! Thanks for having us! :)

We had a fabulous stay at Deerview Lodge. In a stunning countryside location with views over the fields. It is peaceful, the hot tub is lovely. A very comfortable, well maintained and spotless property. The owner is friendly and helpful. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The house was very convenient and big enough for the guests. it had parking for two cars which was useful! The house looked exactly like the photos with plenty of space. the road where the house was looked nice. We walked to the centre and found it wasn't too far.

Jacky's house is absolutely perfect as a base to explore Cardiff. Just a short car ride away from the city centre, the house is incredibly spacious with all the amenities you could need. All the bedrooms are more then big enough and very comfortable. Could not recommend it highly enough

This is a really beautiful place to stay. it's lovely and secluded and very peaceful! Stephen & Sandy (and Cara the dog!) were wonderful hosts and gave us lots of advice on local walks and things to do in the area. The house was lovely and comfortable and we could have quite easily spent several days chilling in the garden and exploring the treehouse! We would highly recommend staying here, it's truly wonderful!

Charlotte's place was a really lovely place to stay and felt really homely and nicely decorated. The beds were comfy. The free on street parking was super handy as well.

Lovely little cottage attached to the host’s house in Taff’s Well- great location for getting into Cardiff. Felt very comfortable- yes it is next to the railway but the trains rush by in a flash and the bedroom’s on the furthest side of the property away from the tracks, so you don’t really notice it and it didn’t stop us getting to sleep. Robert was really responsive and very welcoming- we’d definitely consider staying again!

A great place for an outdoor family holiday. We loved exploring the beautiful waterfalls and even went for a very cold swim in the river! Would recommend the white horse for food and a great friendly atmosphere, great if you’ve got a dog with you. The caves at abercraf also well worth a visit. Lovely cottage run by lovely people. Thanks Pete and Lydia!

Needed a place to stay for our group of friends to watch the rugby, Danny's place was just what we needed, room for us all, & within walking distance, weather permitting, of millennium stadium, large taxis cheap enough, if not. Like staying at a mate's house but your mate's not there 🤣 Great pub about 10 minutes away, The Lansdowne. Easy check in & out. Danny was very responsive to all our needs.

We are very grateful that we chose to stay at Myrtle Cottage. The cottage is spacious and well proportioned. The furnishings and decor are perfect. Stylish and comfortable accommodation with all the amenities that you could want. The outdoor space, parking and countryside location are wonderful and yet access to shops and restaurants is a short walk away. Despite being easily accessible from the M4 motorway the cottage is peaceful and tranquil. Amy is an amazingly helpful host. She was very responsive and friendly. She couldn't have done anything more to make our stay any more special. This has been one of the best stays in 9 years of using Airbnb, which includes some pretty special properties and hosts.

There were six of us on a golf trip so we each had our own bedroom and plenty of space to relax in the evening. Jenny's place was perfect for us.

We had a wonderful stay for my partners 30th it was so peaceful to wake up to beautiful views and to have a little dip in the hot tub and then to sit by the fire of an evening. Would stay again!

Had an amazing stay. The apartment is much bigger than the photos and was such an easy walk into the centre of Cardiff. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend break at Maple Cottage, which is very well equipped, clean and fresh. The log burner warmed the lounge superbly, the bed was comfortable, the shower and spa pool refreshing and the kitchen had everything we needed. We will be back, a real hidden gem!
