The Church Townhouse is situated halfway along Cathedral
Road on the same side as Sophia Gardens Park and is just a
few minutes from the castle and the main shopping centre. Those
wishing to walk have a choice of either going along Cathedral
Road, past the large turn-of-the century houses for which Cardiff
is noted, or walking through the park and down the river path
into town.
