Ive only been to Cardiff a couple of times, but its a nice place... but there isnt a massive amount to see. Its a pretty small place for a capital city. if I were you I'd stick in London and Stratford on Avon, or if youre in that reigion check out Oxford, Bath, Brighton or Cambridge... Cardiff is a good place for a night out, but it isnt soaked in culture and interesting things.
You can get across the channel a lot more easily by ferry rather than train: but if you want to use the tunnel you need to book into a coach trip and they take you on a fright train, the passenger trains are pretty pricey.
I dont live that near London, 75 miles away, but if you get together a meet up in London I'd be up for it.
And I'd recomend the National Gallery, The Natural History Museum, The Science Museum and both Tate galleries - they all should be free and you can easily take two days to just do those.
