South Wales has a lot to offer and has recently beaten off the likes of Manchester to be awarded the city with the “Best Quality of Life”. The city is easily accessible via the M4 motorway, which runs through the north of the city, making London a comfortable 2.5 hour drive away. It has rail links to the rest of the UK and has its own international Airport.
For such a small area, only around 75km (46.5 miles) east to west and around 50 km (30 miles) from North to South, South Wales certainly fits a lot in - spectacular countryside, a National Park and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a beautiful coastline.
The people of Wales are immensely proud of their rich history and culture, which can be seen throughout their many castles and museums, and their ancient language which you can try out for yourself. Above all else, Welsh people are proud of their friendliness (and singing ability!).
Cardiff has been assessed as one of the top cities in the UK and compares very favorably with many larger cities for house price growth, the cost of renting, average salaries and quality of life.
