Copthorne Hotel Cardiff-Caerdydd

Exit the M4 at junction 33 to locate the contemporary Copthorne Hotel and Raglans, its stylish restaurant, which are right at the heart of a thriving business and shopping park. With soothing views across a small lake through picture windows, it offers accurate, modern European cooking utilising quality local and seasonal ingredients and delivers vibrant flavours. Free-range pork cutlets, for example, served with roast figs, garlic sauté potatoes and spiced apple compôte, preceded by a starter of locally-smoked salmon accompanied with roasted peppers and horseradish mousseline, and be sure to leave room for traditional summer pudding with clotted cream ice cream.
