About this property
Port View House by Urban Hideaways
Port View House is a welcoming 3-bedroom home offering a contemporary retreat with captivating harbour views over Cardiff Bay. Stylishly designed and thoughtfully furnished, this home features spacious living areas perfect for relaxation or social gatherings, a fully equipped kitchen, and cosy, comfortable bedrooms that promise restful nights.
With its ideal location, Port View House provides easy access to Cardiff’s cultural hotspots, vibrant shopping areas, and waterfront dining experiences. Just a short journey from Cardiff City Centre, the property allows guests to explore the city’s landmarks and events, from Cardiff Castle to the Principality Stadium, while retreating to a quieter setting at the end of the day. Blending luxury, location, and convenience, Port View House is an excellent choice for both short breaks and extended stays.
Pets are welcome at Port View House - an additional fee of £5/pet/night is payable via an online pre-check-in portal.
Access to the property is provided via online pre-check-in once a few security details (e.g., primary guest ID) and a security deposit is provided (this is not a charge on your card but instead a temporary pre-authorisation hold that is automatically released 3 days after check-out once the property has been inspected).
We do this as a security measure to ensure the property's safety so that future guests may also enjoy a comfortable and relaxing stay.

Home from home!
Perfect home from home to visit Penarth and Cardiff! The house was beautifully presented with everything you could possible want! It has a lovely garden- perfect to sit out on an evening and the manager was on hand for anything we needed! Highly recommend!

Perfectly clean and pretty Port View!
We needed a base for a family visit to Cardiff and Port View was just the ticket! Pretty, and clean, perfectly proportioned and well organized. We stayed on two separate occasions over 2 weeks and our hosts were super attentive, so accommodating and also exceptionally kind (especially when I messed up the check out - oops!) Big thanks and kudos to Dave & Tom. Port View is a gem and we would happily book it time and time again for return trips to the 'Diff!
