Getting to Blackwood After Your Flight

Blackwood really couldn’t be better located when it comes to onward travel from the airport. Cardiff Airport is about 30 miles away via the A469 or M4 motorway – or about 50 minutes’ drive in good traffic. Bristol is approximately 50 miles away via the M4 and A472, which is a little over an hour’s drive. Blackwood also has a bus station, which connects it to many surrounding areas. Blackwood itself does not have a railway station of its own, so this includes a regular service to stations nearby such as nearby Pengam. Nevertheless, your best bet may be to rent a car in Blackwood, collecting this at the airport when your flight lands.

Relaxing in Blackwood After Your Flight

Relatively close to both Newport and Cardiff, you can make the most of the big cities by day and relax in the evening somewhere a little more low key. It’s quite possible that you’re flying to Blackwood for work, in which case a country walk on the banks of the Sirhowy River is just the ticket if you want to wind down after a long day in the office, or just to relax after your flight to Blackwood arrives.
