You'll find this adult education centre inside an old Victorian primary school just outside Barry…read more I attended both Welsh language classes there on Saturday mornings with various teachers (including Hayden Jones, Angharad and Melanie), and also Welsh history classes with Geoff Wright (a superbly inspiring teacher and extremely nice man). You can find it opposite the Dow Corning's factory on the Cardiff Road. There are plenty of parking spaces and the Centre is also near bus stops and only a 10 minute walk from Cadoxton Station. There is disabled access with ramps and a stairlift, and a free crèche which is supervised by professional staff.. The times of opening are: Mon-Fri 9.30am-4.00pm Tues & Thurs 6.30pm 9.00pm

The grandeur of the building is put to use for other purposes - concerts, open-days, graduation ceremonies, and ball venues. The epitome of Bristol's wealth and propriety, this changes when student celebrations are in full-swing. A common sight is of students jumping into the fountains at the front of the steps, splashing around in the water and even being so rebellious as to pour washing-up liquid into the water. There are lots of rooms of various sizes and this makes it a perfect venue for almost any occasion. The building is mainly host to concerts and recitals, but I had my end of first year prom here. A large but cosy dining room for dinner, a room fit for dancing and a two smaller, connecting-rooms to hold a casino night.

Bristol University's music department is housed in this stunning Victorian building at the top of…read morepark street, where the route splits between Clifton and Whiteladies Road. With the fountains and sculptures adorning its front facade, it is an imposing building to add to a list of impressive architecture in Bristol. Inside, there are two large recital rooms that serve as the concert hall for both the students who study here and a range of independent music performances, from classical superstars to the local Bristol Schools Orchestra. There's also a wide variety of teaching rooms. The university only turned this into the music department in 1996, but the building was purpose built in 1842 for the use of music. There are tours available through the University, or alternatively just buy a ticket to one of the concerts, but the Victoria Rooms is a Bristol asset that is definitely worth appreciating.

Having spent my first year at Bristol in Churchills, i am not going to give it a bad review…read more But i would say this: the reason why i enjoyed it so much is because of the friends i made. The rooms are fine- they are quite big and have a large bathroom between four rooms. Some of the rooms have sinks in too. So far as facilities go there isn't much that churchill can boast, they have a bar and the quod but that is about it. I had a great time so would recommend it to all despite the lack of facilities compared to say, Wills or Baddock.

Churchill Hall is a great hall for some, myself included…read more Positives: The catering is better than school canteens, there is a projector room with sky, a heavily subsidised bar selling pints for as little as a pound at times, a beautiful patch of green to eat, drink and be merry on in the summer time, lots of good looking people, large rooms and a great sporting ethos. Negatives: perhaps more than any other hall there are divisions between public-school and state school students, the bathrooms are pretty disgusting, there is a lot of damp, other halls have better facilities and locations, the hall has decreased in size since I was last there and this makes the hall feel a bit sparse. Rather than tell you I had a great time, I hope this helps you to make an informed decision for yourself!

Peartree Languages is a shop fronted language school on Llandaff Road that always seems really…read morebusy. It is one of several language schools that have sprung up since Cardiff gained in popularity as a visitor destination. It has also come in useful for the amount of immigrants that have come to meet the labouring demand to support the major developments the city has seen in the last ten years or so. These have included the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff Bay, and the current major work that is taking place in the centre. They cater for all kinds of people, temporary visitors, and long term visitors alike, offering courses in several languages, which of course include Welsh. The advise you to visit their Facebook page, before mentioning their website, as this is updated more regularly on the basis that they get a fair amount of input that is user generated. info@peartreelanguages.com

This is a good University for those who are clever enough and for those who work hard enough to meet the Universities requirements. I suppose it's like this with most Universities, if not all, but this University in my view is the Welsh and Cardiff equivalent University standard to Oxford University. However, Cardiff University has many courses for you to choose from. I have heard that the teaching seems to be brilliant in the areas in helping you develop your career and that the support they give you is really good as well. If I did have the level of intelligence and the qualifications to match this University's certain requirements I most properly would have chosen to study the Journalism degree there. They also have poetry evenings and other activities going on here and there during the evenings on certain sites within the University. I met and heard the poet Gwyneth Lewis read her poetry once. I recommend it to all of those interested in studying there and to any friends of those who are studying there as a great place to visit and or to study.

I thoroughly enjoyed being a student and being a student in cardiff made it all the more special. Aside from the usual student 'activities' the actual studying part was also great. Cardiff is a brilliant university. My course was well organised, lectures were well thought out and interesting, staff were always on hand to help. The facilities at Cardiff are also top rate. There are so many computer rooms, labs, libraries. Some are open 24 hours too. The social facilities are also exceptional with a larger than average student union containing bars, club, and shops. Brilliant! Since leaving university I have gone on to do 2 more courses. My second was at a different university and compared to Cardiff it was not even close. I am currently doing a post grad qualification and I've picked Cardiff again. As a part time mature student it is just as outstanding. Support from staff is second to none. I highly recommend studying here.

Its currently undoing a big of a revamp to make the college look as good as the performances and provide new facilitates. This a real institution that all of Wales should be proud of.

It's a fabulous little intimate venue and if you ever get a chance to see a decent production here then its worth going. I am not sure if business is as usual at the moment because it is under going a £22.5 million building re-design. The new buildings are due to open in the Spring of 2011 but the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama is Wales' leading music and drama conservatoire and this new addition to the College's professional training and performance facilities comprises The Richard Burton Theatre. It was recently named at a gala evening at Buckingham Palace, along with the 450-seat Concert Hall, four Acting & Movement Studios and an Exhibition Gallery. So it held in high regard.
