Cardiff has been named among the coolest places in the UK to live by a popular travel blog, with the city's friendly atmosphere, bars and restaurants and affordability all praised.
American travel site Nomads Nation has published a list of its top 10 coolest cities in the UK, with this round-up summarising what there is to do in each city, as well as the cost of living, rent and other pros and cons for readers looking for somewhere to suit them and their budget. Cardiff was named in tenth place, behind the likes of Manchester, Edinburgh and Bristol, but was the only Welsh city to make the list.
The top 10 sees London take top spot, followed by the small coastal city of Portsmouth in second place. The UK capital is described as "proud, multicultural and never boring," while Portsmouth is praised for its history and "lively student scene".
