Penarth
Penarth is a town in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. It is situated 5.2 miles south west from the city centre of the Welsh capital city of Cardiff and it is on the north bank of the Severn Estuary at the southern end of Cardiff Bay. With a population of 22083, it is the second largest town in the Vale of Glamorgan, coming second to the administrative centre of Barry, and Penarth is the seaside resort with the most wealth in the Cardiff Urban Area. The town was a rather popular holiday spot during most of the Victorian period, typically described as 'The Garden by the Sea', with the highest percentage of visitors travelling from the Midlands and the West County, together with day trippers from the South Wales valleys who journeyed by train. Although the town continues to be a popular holiday spot in the summer, with its traditional seafront mainly intact, the number of visitors is much lower than was typical in between the Victorian period and the middle of the 20th century, even more so as soon as inexpensive package vacations overseas appeared. Regardless, the town maintains a large retired population, representing over 25 percent of residents, and it is mainly a dormitory town for Cardiff commuters. However, landmarks and attractions still preserve a steady flow of visitors to the town all throughout the year. Cosmeston Lakes County Park has been a popular selection since its establishment in the 1970s, which has acres of walks and woodlands on the heath. Cosmeston Mediaeval Village, which offers historical re-enactments, permits visitors to explore a reconstruction of a historical village and has been described as the finest of its type in Britain.
