2022 at Vale Holiday Parks

We’ve had some great moments over the last year, here are some of our highlights...

2022 was a fantastic year for Vale Holiday Parks, so we thought we'd spend some time reflecting on our highlights from the last 12 months. 

There have been so many good times that we've really had to really condense our list, but let us know on Facebook or Instagram if you think we've missed something.

Firstly though, we'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone who visited one or more of our parks this year. Whether you're an owner or a holidaymaker, we hope you had a great time and made some lasting holiday memories.

Our holiday parks are reopening in February and March 2023 (depending on accommodation type), so book today to join in the fun at Vale Holiday Parks!

Our new holiday park: Porthkerry Leisure Park

This year, we announced that another holiday park had been added to our group - Porthkerry Leisure Park.

Porthkerry is our first holiday park located in the South Wales region. It has a brilliant location right on the coast and so close to Barry and Cardiff - so you can explore the scenic Vale of Glamorgan countryside or spend the day in the city or at the fair! 

We’ve been busy giving it the Vale special treatment this year and hope to open it in 2023 as an owners-only holiday park.

Vale Festivals were back!

ClarachFest at Vale Holiday Parks
We hosted our first ClarachFest!

We were thrilled to bring back our family fun festivals this year, running four events in total at Ocean Heights, Clarach Bay, ParcFarm and Grondre Holiday Parks.

It was wonderful to see so many people coming along to the festivals and creating such a great atmosphere. You guys sure know how to party!

Thank you to everyone who attended as well as to the wonderful acts and performers. There was such a great variety of music, with something for everyone throughout the festivals.

Did you attend one of our festivals? What were your favourite moments? Let us know on Facebook!
