Check the websites for those papers pascal mentioned... their sites should have property listings, or at least tell you what day to expect them in the physical paper. You really shouldn't have a problem finding somewhere in Cardiff.
And stuff to do... get some weed in, head for the mountains. Brecon Beacons, Snowdonia, Cambrian Mountains and the Black Mountains all very beautiful. There's tons to do if you like walking, kayaking, climbing or anything like that. Not the best time of year really, but if the weather is calm it's real nice provided you're well clothed. Some nice beaches in the SW corner around Tenby and all up the W and NW coast. Tor Bay in Swansea is nice, not sure if there's any nice beaches in Cardiff though. Again though, you've picked the worst time of year to move to Wales, it gets wet and cold through the winter months.
If you want my honest advice, get on the first plane back to NZ. You're crazy.
NZ to Germany to Holland to Wales (hopping along to the next when visas expire), dunno if that makes it better or worse for you though.
Think I might take a break from the weed after the netherlands, although I'll admit to having sorted out a cardiff hookup before moving here.
I'm definitely not looking forward to the winter-induced depression but I'm yet to find anywhere on the top half of the world where I can hide from it. My girlfriend's doing an exchange year in Cardiff is the reasoning behind being here for the next six months, so maybe that'll help some anyway.
Good point on the websites of the newspapers, I'll go check that out now and see what days they have property listings. Actually I'll drink some more beer and do that tomorrow morning!
