Step inside the latest offering in Cardiff Bay, The Club House - sister company of popular dinner spot The Botanist - and you'll see why it describes itself as "the perfect getaway you can keep coming back to". Opening next week to the public from Monday, August 29, we were lucky to have a sneak peek at Mermaid Quay's new holiday-inspired restaurant and bar, which is found where the former much-loved bar Salt used to be.
Spanning over two floors, it's in a truly prime location and overlooks the harbour across to where the barrage meets Penarth. And its view links in with the elegant nautical theme that is seen throughout the venue.
Both floors are complete with whitewash wood and deep blue walls - a colour combination often associated with the seaside - that are lit up by rustic ropes hanging from the ceiling as light fixtures. As well as these artistic lights, a gorgeous element of this new restaurant and bar is the natural light that pours through the first and second floor thanks to the building's large windows that line the walls.
