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.

Dette sier kundene

Gjestene roser Happy Jake's for romslige plasser, rene fasiliteter og hyggelig personale. Rolig beliggenhet og nærhet til turstier nevnes positivt. Noen fant prisen for høy, merkede støyproblemer, og opplevde sporadiske utfordringer med varmtvann og renhold. Inngangspartiets utforming og mangel på belysning bekymret også.

Plass for campingvogn på gressplen , med muligheter for strøm

Likte plenty of space

Likte ikke facilities dirty and showers on one setting which was luke warm.Most of the bins in bathrooms and toilet full most of the time and distinct lack of toilet paper on a number of occasions.
Facilities quite a distance for some pitches ie 400yds
A lot of signage in facilities to do this that and the other.

Fra bestyreren: Oh dear! We are sorry that this is how you viewed us.

I can assure you that the toilet roll is topped up on regular ocassions throughout the day. During your visit there was always toilet roll in the holders. The 2nd roll had not been released from inside the dispenser withn the small handle inside which lets it drop.

The bins can get full when we are busy so sorry about that.

The facilities can get very busy. Dirty seems somewhat harsh bearing in mind that most of our other reviews state how clean they are. We do ask our visitors to leave the facilities as they would wish to find it. But, this does not always happen. On busy mornings it can be difficult to acces the showers and toilets to check on them and tidy up if messy.

The showers are set but heavy use can cause the temerature to drop. At certain times the water is on permanent to try and avoid this. We are sorry this was an issue for you.

We have limited caravan pitch availability close to the shower facility but if there is a personal need to be close we do try and facilitate it. Of course this can be difficult when pitches are already booked.

We are very sorry you did'nt enjoy your stay with us.

Likte Spacious, quiet, level pitch with great dog walking area. Good facilities, showers nice and warm, with plenty of loos which included 3 ply toilet paper!!!

Likte ikke A little bit of a walk to get to the toilet block, as we were on the edge of the camp, otherwise no moans about this place.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your great comments.

It can be a bit of a walk from the very bottom of the site.

Glad you enjoyed your stay.

Plass campingbil eller for telt på gressplen , uten strøm

Likte The warm welcoming by Mandy, the natural surrounding.

Likte ikke Tha place has a lot of potential. Nevertheless, the looks of it seems not well maintenanced. The toilet and shower rooms are comfortable but not tidy - a broken chair, empty ads stand, bleach containers exposed on the ground (what if there are young children?), lack of toilet rolls...
Lawn mower anybody?

Anbefal til venner Besøker gjerne igjen

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your review.

So pleased you were happy with the greeting. We try to catch up with our visitors as soon as possible if they have arrived and made there way to their pitch. The welcome board will help with pitch location so that the pitch can be accessed without waiting for someone.

Not sure why the shower rooms were not tidy. When visited in the morning all seemed ok and the toilet rolls were fine. Perhaps you did not reralise that the holder has another roll up inside which is released by pulling the handle inside forward.

The cleaning sprays have been popular with our customers but we take note of your comment and have removed the bleach container.

The grass! As it was very dry it was left a little longer as it was being bleached by the sun. We do indeed have a mower which is used regularly unless for some reason it has had a breakdown. Unfortunately we do not have a secondary mower for these instances.

Perhaps if you had been visiting for a little longer (only 1 day) you would have seen the mower working.

Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Lokale attraksjoner

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.
