    Get a folding bike in your car. I bet even moving into Westgate Street will be a nightmare - where/how do you park anything to get your stuff unloaded....?

    As for Cathedral Road .... if I had £1 for every time I've driven down there looking for a parking space I'd be able to afford a limo with driver.
  • my sister looked into renting one of those flats once, and the service charge was huge. is it still the same... ??

    if you buy/rent a flat on top of st davids 2 you can get a parking space in the residents zone in the multi storey on the roof in with the deal...

    i think your only 'free' options would be cathedral rd or canton area...
    or try and get the council to give you a permit for fitzhamon embankment across the river??

    I lived in the area for years and there's no way I'd leave my car on the embankment!!!
