Cardiff: accessible first-date ideas
Level, accessible and easy to reach: a handful of Cardiff favourites for a relaxed first meeting.
Cardiff Bay
A flat waterfront with the Wales Millennium Centre, the free and accessible Senedd, the restaurants of Mermaid Quay and the barrage walk.
Cardiff Castle
Right in the middle of the city, with accessible areas and plenty of cafes close by.
National Museum Cardiff
Free and accessible, with art and natural history under one roof, ideal on a wet afternoon.
Bute Park
Acres of accessible parkland beside the Taff, a few minutes' walk from the shops.
Roath Park
A lake, a lighthouse and accessible paths for a gentle walk and a chat.
The arcades
Covered Victorian and Edwardian shopping arcades, level underfoot and full of independent cafes.
Getting around Cardiff
Trains from Transport for Wales and buses from Cardiff Bus have accessible services, and the main sights in the Bay and the centre come with Blue Badge bays, level access and accessible toilets, and the bigger venues add Changing Places facilities. A coffee at Mermaid Quay or a lap of Roath Park lake is an easy first plan that is simple to extend if things are going well.
Eligible disabled people in Wales can get a free bus pass, so getting from Roath, Canton or Penarth to a date in the Bay need not cost a penny.

Cardiff: your questions
What makes a good accessible first date in Cardiff?
Cardiff Bay is hard to beat: flat, accessible and full of places to eat. Bute Park, Roath Park and the National Museum are good alternatives.
How does Cardiff rate for getting about with a disability?
Well, for the most part. The centre is compact, trains and buses run accessible services, and the larger venues have Changing Places toilets.
Can I meet people from Newport, Swansea or beyond?
Of course. The people you see first live in and around Cardiff, and members in the Valleys, across Wales and further afield are a message away.
