The Vale Hotel & Touring Caravan Park in Rhoose, near Cardiff Airport, is now on the market for £1.8 million, presenting a potential investment opportunity for hospitality and outdoor accommodation operators. 

The property includes an 11-bedroom hotel and a 30-pitch caravan and touring site, catering to both short- and long-term visitors.

Situated just 500 meters from Cardiff Airport, the property offers strategic advantages for business and leisure travelers. 

The hotel spans two floors, featuring a reception area, dining space, licensed bar, commercial kitchen, and communal lounge on the ground floor. It also includes two ensuite hotel rooms and a self-contained flat. 

The first floor comprises eight additional ensuite hotel rooms and a second communal lounge.

The accompanying caravan park is designed to accommodate touring guests, featuring a well-maintained environment with essential amenities such as shower and toilet facilities. 

Additionally, an on-site car park adds convenience for travelers seeking secure parking near the airport. The property also includes a sun terrace and patio area.

RE/MAX Estate Agents, which is marketing the property on Zoopla, describes it as “a rare and exciting opportunity” for investors, highlighting its potential to capitalize on tourism and business travel due to its prime location. 

“This is a superb investment opportunity. It is ideally positioned to benefit from tourism and business travel, with excellent links to Cardiff and the wider South Wales region,” the estate agent stated in a report by Barry & District News.

For industry professionals, the property’s mix of accommodation options, proximity to transport hubs, and existing facilities make it an appealing prospect. 

With Cardiff Airport serving domestic and international flights, the site is well-placed to attract transient visitors, corporate clients, and tourists. Additionally, Rhoose’s strong transport links, including rail and road connections to Cardiff and Bridgend, enhance accessibility.

The growing interest in hybrid accommodation models—combining traditional lodging with touring caravan facilities—adds to the site’s viability. 

Operators looking to expand their portfolios or enter the South Wales market may find this property a strategic fit, particularly given its ability to serve multiple customer segments, from holidaymakers to business travelers.
