Student Accommodation in Roath, Cardiff

After living somewhere a little less busy than the hustle and bustle of Cardiff City Centre? Try student accommodation in Roath, a quiet, creative, residential community that’s conveniently only a 15-minute walk from the Cardiff University campus.

With the Howardian Local Nature Reserve and Roath Recreation Ground in the neighbourhood, student houses in Roath are never far from some extraordinary greenery—placing you in the heart of an idyllic student suburb with picturesque parkland perfect for whiling away the summer months or for having a kick-around with some mates between lectures.

Obviously this isn’t all that Roath has to offer. All along Albany Road and City Road are dozens of independent restaurants, cafés and shops, covering cuisines from pizza (see Scaramantica just off Albany Road at Pen-Y-Lan Road) to street food with Sticky Fingers (a venue hosting a wide variety of food vendors at Richmond Road, round the corner from Albany Road).

Residents living in student houses in Cardiff’s Roath are also lucky enough to have the legendary Globe just around the corner. This well-known music venue was once a former cinema which regularly hosts both UK-based and international artists and DJs, though if you want to see the current hottest acts then hopping on one of the many buses that run through Roath to the Utilita Arena in the City Centre is easy peasy.
