I've heard that there is a very large carboot sale in Sully during the summer which is supposed to be excellent. Keep on meaning to go, myself. If you drive past Cosmeston Lakes, drive into Sully and its in the grounds of Social or rugby club on your left hand side. I don't think you'll miss it, as Sully is very small. Not sure when it starts up though.
Sully is between Cardiff and Barry and just past Penarth.

relatives advised splott market is in sanquhar street in splott. you cannot go over the black bridge in a car. bridge is just a railway bridge over which people walk and is called black bridge because it's painted black. no cars allowed on it. do you need directions to sanquhar street? if so choose landmark in cardiff and will provide them- do you know where castle, millenium stadium, queen street (shopping centre), jail, fire station etc etc is?

Get to bessemer rd early for the bargain hunters....car booters pack up midday from what I can remember

Not 100% sure but I think the Car Boot Sales in Bessamer and Splott are on Saturday not Sunday.

Splott is Saturday - Bessamer is Sunday - out of the two Splott is better as more people tend to go.

Splott Market has a boot sale on Saturday with small market under cover, the full market is on Sunday. Bessemer has a boot sale on Saturday and a market on Sunday.
