Is there a better small city in the UK than Cardiff

**Lawnmower** · 23-05-15, 18:23

Sports stadiums and events, shopping, parks, cycle trails, the Bay, rail system, proximity to beaches and the Beacons.

For me it's a winner 👍

**Lawnmower** · 23-05-15, 18:23

Oh and the bars and restaurants are excellent too. 😀

**Majorblue** · 23-05-15, 18:26

Define small. In a bit of a pedantic mood tonight as you could probably guess.
I would place Cardiff firmly in the mid sized section and yes, it would be near the top.
For what it is worth, Bath would get my vote as a winner of a small city.

Bristol has a decent airport too. And a zoo.

Bath for me too. Lovely place. Oxford is also very very nice.

Have you travelled north of Cardiff? About 15 miles north will put you in Rhondda

Hull, Swansea, Leicester - all small cities that have managed to keep a Premier League football team longer than 5 minutes.

Have you ever been to Hull? It's a ****ing dump. For me up with Stoke, and Walsall as some of the shittiest places I have had the misfortune to visit.

**Majorblue** · 23-05-15, 18:35

Brighton is a good call and Cambridge is another great little city.
Interesting thread this, nice work Lawnmower.

Bath is small though, cardiff isn't really anymore. Lots going on, plenty to do around the city too. The football is almost a sideshow these days

**Mozzer1** · 23-05-15, 18:39

It' up there with the best

wouldn't want to move anywhere else

Swansea and Hull are absolute shite holes and in need of an urgent renovation.

Why are you doing it with a Cardiff twang

**Peru Blue** · 23-05-15, 20:01

Bath and Brighton are lovely cities, and the centre of Bristol is very nice - while all of these cities have nice features, they lack in other areas and for me Cardiff has it all. There's a reason it's regularly mentioned in polls as one of the best UK cities to live in and why it's such a quickly growing city (quickest in Europe?). We are lucky to be born British, and even luckier to be living in Cardiff. Balanced out of course by the fact that we then have CCFC to follow

But you can't have it all!!

**Mario Miethig** · 23-05-15, 20:04

My wife's friend came to Cardiff to visit from the Midlands and she was shocked at what a bustling, busy City Cardiff is and even said the shopping was better than Birmingham. I wouldn't say Cardiff was small though. There are a lot of Cities in the UK smaller than Cardiff.
