You'll receive a very warm welcome from the site managers Tim & Kristy, who took over in 2020. This is no longer a small rural site, but a vibrant modern campsite, yet where you can still take a picnic into the meadow. The reception area also serves as a well-stocked shop/cafe (with a 5-star hygiene rating). It has an extensive menu of freshly prepared food and is the hub of the site, with tables both inside and outside. There is a modern children’s play area and games room within this complex, so you can enjoy your Cappuccino, whilst keeping an eye on the family. At the centre of ‘Acorn’ is an old Oak tree, hence its name, and from this centre, the site divided’s into its specific areas.
Llandow Caravan Park is in a fairly secluded rural area in the beautiful Vale of Glamorgan. You will receive a warm welcome from the park wardens, Julie and Alan. The site is divided into two areas separated by a road. The main area comprises 100 level pitches, some on hardstanding, whilst across the road is the new area with 70 mainly grass pitches.
Happy Jakes is a rural quiet site with 30 touring pitches, one fully serviced, super pitch for an RV-type vehicle, and 15 pitches for tents. There are also two furnished Pod's available for rental. The site name reflects that of the owner’s little boy, who inspired them to create a campsite with facilities for visitors with disabilities, and many of the features were created with children in mind. An example of this is ‘Rachel’s Walk’, a sensory experience for campers who are blind or partially sighted. This relatively new site is thoughtfully laid out, there is level access throughout and improvements are constantly being made. The owners Mark and Mandy live on-site and personally manage the site.
