Smile, you’re at Happy Jakes Touring Park. And there are a few reasons for why. This lush little countryside park is deep in the Vale of Glamorgan – but is only a few miles from the Blue Flag beaches, cliffs and coves of the Glamorgan Heritage Coast, including seaside resort Barry, of Gavin and Stacey fame: fans of Uncle Bryn, Nessa et al can book a Gavin and Stacey tour in the town to see the main tellyvisual sights. Around 15 miles to the east lies Cardiff, capital for days and nights out, or you could contentedly base the family at Happy Jakes to coast around the local castles, bike routes, gardens and activities on land and water. Owners Mandy, Mark and (famed) Jake have been honing and adding to Happy Jakes Touring Park since opening in 2011, with disabled access high on the agenda: the wetrooms in the smart heated shower and toilet block are big enough to take a wheelchair user and carer, or up to four family members. There’s also a launderette, washing-up area with hot water, tourist information room, and a dedicated walking/play area for dogs (who stay for free; happy woof). Looking for nosh and tipples to put an additional smile on your face? Pick up all sorts of fresh Welsh produce at the local farmers’ markets, farm shops and fruit farms. If cooking on holiday is a thing to be avoided at all costs, Happy Jakes is three miles from ancient market town Cowbridge and its dozen or so pubs and restaurants.

Areal til telt eller autocamper med græs uden elektricitet

Syntes om Happy Jake’s was very easy to find. On arrival clear instructions were there. The campsite was clean and tidy with good parking and a large play area for children.
The showers/toilets were clean and everyone did their bit to keep them so.

I am a solo traveler and used the campsite as a great location to start a run to Bridgend following the coastal path, which was stunning.

Syntes ikke om No dislikes.

Areal kørende med græs med valgfri elektricitet

Syntes om Quit location, nice welcome from the owner taken to our pitch. Pitch was very large and flat.
Shower block, although very small was extremely clean with lovely hot water.
Kids park was okay I’ve nine year-old could play in it.

Syntes ikke om Entrance to the site was not clearly signed and easily missed not good when towing a caravan. Also sadly the entrance to the site is a bit of a letdown very tired looking gates first thing you see is quite a large old rusty container and overflowing bins in our opinion not a very good first impression of your holiday campsite.
There is a dog walk but not signed at all. Only found the field by chance which was a bit overgrown and hard to walk on . A mowed path would’ve helped considerably, but the dog exercise field was a really good size and well fenced in.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your review. We are glad you found the shower facilities to your liking and the playpark.

There are brown tourism signs directing you to the campsite which if followed will bring you in accurately. It looks like you may have turned off the main road early and taken a very narrow country lane to get to us. We do not recommend using this lane.

Unfortunately our waste collection company let us down with our regular collection therefore leaving us with extremely full bins. We were unable to empty the bins until they revisited. We are sorry that this occurred and spoiled your visit.

The container is there for storage but we take on board your comment and will look to enhance the exterior of it to lessen the impact.

The dog field has now been cut and a path mowed to the entrance. Due to mechanical failure our tractor was out of action causing the field not to b e cut. We are extremely sorry for this.

The dog walking field is indicated on the site plan at the entrance to the campsite but again we will look at possibly adding extra signs.

Amazing 5 days away

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for you kind review. Glad you found the site clean and peaceful.

Unfortunately we have had an issue with the roadway lighting. The electrician has now been out and resolved.

We had an ant nest filling the whole of the post which was causing a problem.

Syntes om Lovely views, good pitches for the tent, nice people.

Syntes ikke om Very noisy until 10:30pm, very difficult to get the kids to sleep at a decent time. There was screaming and shouting non stop until then. The play area for the kids is very run down, slide has been taken off. The toilets and showers were ok but could be cleaner. Would maybe return with friends but definitely not with kids because of the noise.

Syntes om A couple of friends booked with our children - this is the second year in a row we have all stayed here, and yet again has been a lovely stay. The owners kindly ensured that our pitches were all together which we really liked. The site is clean and tidy, very safe for young kids and is nice and quiet. The kids all missed the slide from the park that used to be there, but that didn’t stop them playing in the park all day and evening (my youngest said the park was his favourite part of the trip!). They also loved being able to plane spot. It’s a lovely little site and we will be back again next summer for sure.

Lokale seværdigheder

Surf, canter, paintball, go-kart or have a coastal path amble along the nearby Glamorgan Heritage Coast, running for 14 miles from Porthcawl to Aberthaw (paintballing and go-karting along clifftop paths not recommended). There’s so much to see on this part of coast: after the ruins of 12th-century Ogmore Castle, follow the pathway to the village of Merthyr Mawr, backed by a maze of spectacular sand dunes, over 300 species of flower and the Big Dipper, the biggest sand dune in Europe – bring a sledge (really). Fancy fossil hunting? The nearby town of Llantwit Major is so ancient you can pick up Jurassic fossils on its Collugh beach (which has an Iron Age hill fort too). If you’re a surfer, the Collugh waves are a popular place; also get on board with things by veering west outside the Vale of Glamorgan to Porthcawl in Bridgend. Have another couple of days in Cardiff to see sights such as Cardiff Castle and Llandaff Cathedral, the very fab open-air National History Museum at St Fagans and the National Museum and Gallery of Wales.
