Best Shopping Malls in Porthcawl Area

"Cardiff - Caerphilly Castle - St Davids - overnight in Pembrokeshire First stop is 13th century Caerphilly Castle, one of the largest castles in the UK, with elaborate water defences. Then on to the spiritual home of Wales, St Davids - the smallest city in Britain by virtue of its famous awe-inspiring Cathedral. St David is the patron saint of Wales and his death is celebrated on 1st March every year."

"This stunning arcade dates back to 1885 and is the city’s oldest remaining arcade. The Royal Arcade is not one to disappoint. You can find an array of local, independently owned welsh shops here including Cardiff’s Antiques Centre, the Pen and Paper, Van and Dal Co., and Sobeys."

"These vibrant little trails breaking through the centre play host to some of the best independent shops. Want to top off your skater look with a flannel shirt?"

"Simultaneously flying the flag for both Cardiff’s coffee craze and it’s vinyl obsession is Outpost, inside indie urban market The Castle Emporium which as if the setting wasn’t hip enough, sells you old 45’s and coffee and sends someone to deliver it to you by bicycle. Not sure how that works, as every time I’ve tried to combine coffee and cycling I’ve failed miserably. Oh no wait it’s just the records they deliver, you’ll have to go into the Emporium for the drinks."

"The Quadrant shopping centre, Swansea’s main shopping centre. Perfect for a rainy day to keep warm and dry and fill your time with a bit of shopping. With all the shops you’d expect from a shopping centre - JD, Debenhams, Boots, Schuh, WHSmith, Superdry and so much more - the Quadrant shopping centre in Swansea makes for a great day out."

"Mermaid Quay and Cardiff Bay itself are so breathtakingly beautiful locations. It is such a chic and cosmopolitan atmosphere, with plenty to do such as the Welsh Millenium Centre, some of the restaurants along the strip such as Nandos, and Zizzi’s, The Everyman Cinema for the perfect screenings, and the Glee – Cardiff’s first comedy club. Cardiff Bay being such a large waterfront allows for many visitors and has a lot of boat trips and cultural attractions to be enjoyed here, as a student."

"Some of Cardiff’s best independent stores can be found inside the beautiful Victorian and Edwardian Arcades which are dotted around the city centre. These architectural gems are one of the features that makes Cardiff special and are a wonderful place to take pictures. Head to the balcony in the Castle Arcade for a unique vantage point, and don’t forget to point your lens at the stunning curves of the Morgan Arcade’s ceiling."

"Atop the grassy Lantern Hill on the north side of the harbour is what is believed to be the UK’s oldest working lighthouse. This seafarer’s chapel dates from 1321 and sometime in the 15th century it was equipped with a beacon to guide boats in the harbour. During Henry VIII’s dissolution of the monasteries the chapel lost its religious role and became home to lighthouse keepers, including a Mr John Davey who raised 14 children in this small space."

"TheChapel of St Nicholas is believed to be the UK’s oldest working lighthouse which dates back to 1321. Built as a place of worship, for the people of Ilfracombe, it’s not an iconic landmark overlooking the harbour that you really can’t miss. Best of all, you can easily include a stroll up to the chapel with a wider walk around the pier, seeing Verity and exploring the historic harbourfront."

"The eponymous chef at seriously stylish Reeve's is an award winner. No wonder: the complex creations here truly showcase Exmoor produce. Opt for lemon sole with a tangy lobster bisque, or meltingly tender lamb..."
