About

Rhoose ward lies along the Bristol Channel coastline in the Vale of Glamorgan. The area is dominated by Cardiff Airport, a major transport hub for South Wales. Inland, the landscape consists of flat, open farmland and the residential village of Rhoose itself. The coastline here is characterised by low limestone cliffs and pebble beaches.

A specific local feature is the tidal island of Tusker Rock, visible from the shore at low tide. The Wales Coast Path runs through the area, following the clifftops. Economic activity is closely tied to the airport and associated business parks. The ward also contains the small settlement of Font-y-Gary, situated near the coastal path.
