  • Small family-run Pembrokeshire site with dog-friendly grassy pitches
  • A 35-minute walk from Saundersfoot and a five-minute drive to Tenby
  • Barbecues welcome; farm shop within five minutes' walk
Gold-sand coves, limestone stacks and fishing harbours… get your Pembrokeshire fix at Crane Cross Camping Park. Based just 35 minutes’ walk from Saundersfoot, where the sandy cove has shallow bathing water, this small family-run site has a splendid location alright. Tenby, a popular Pembrokeshire seaside town with a castle, 13th-century walls and a harbour where boats depart to Caldey Island, is only five minutes’ drive away too. Dog-friendly? Indeed. Barbecues welcome? That too.Handy facilities? Of course. There’s a fridge and freezer in case you want to store fresh eats from the farm shop five minutes’ walk away. Other on-site facilities are handy and include ladies and gents’ toilets, handwashing basins, unisex showers, shaver points, washing-up facilities, an ironing board and hot and cold water. For an additional cost, there’s also a washing machine, dryer and payphone available. For the kids, meanwhile, there's a sand play area where they can dig, explore and make friends. The site only accepts families and couples, which keeps things nice and peaceful. Dogs are welcome too as long as they're kept on leads… It's a cracking location for walks for canines (or humans), with the countryside and coast so easily accessible.

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked: Clean, quiet with good facilities. My son loved the park and the sand pit. There was even buckets and spades to make sandcastles. Good location. Booked again for the following weekend, even though pitch up says fully booked, the friendly owner agreed for us to return and said he would find room for us!

Disliked: Nothing to dislike!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Beautiful campsite. Minimal contact just drive in and pitch up. Kept lovely and clean with everything you need. Really well kept dish washing area with soaps. Fridge and freezer and washing machine and dryer plus power banks all available too. A short 35 min walk to the harbour…A bit dark with a few hills in parts on the way back but we walked and talked and had torches so that didn’t matter to us. Would definitely recommend to families the little park was great and my daughter enjoyed going on the swings.

Disliked: Nothing. Perfect for what we needed

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked: Everything. Relaxed, well kept site with friendly approachable owners. Stayed for 3 nights on hardstanding pitch. Facilities were great and worked as they should do. Always had hot water in showers, and non of the push button showers! The children's park looked good for younger children and goal posts would have been a hit with my son, but I enjoyed a child free weekend there. Peaceful in the evenings. As mentioned in previous reviews there is a recycling center close to the site aswell as the main road, however this wasn't an issue. Yes there is some noise but it's not constant. I was out and about most the day as the site is perfectly located for exploring the surrounding areas. Would definitely return to crane cross with my children.

Local attractions

Pembrokeshire has got a few tricks up its sleeves for those who want a thrill (or two, or three). Oakwood Theme Park (15 minutes’ drive) has rollercoasters and water rides, including loop-the-loops or family-friendly coasters. Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (10 minutes) is its softer alternative, with over 750 animals and vintage fairground rides. Paintball, golf, archery, fishing… get your dose at Heatherton World of Activities (five minutes). If you’re still craving animals, however, Manor Wildlife Park (five minutes) has a walking safari where guests can have a go at feeding the wallabies. You bet that Pembrokeshire also has some gorgeous coastal path sections, with excellently clear waters and geological formations. The Green Bridge, Elugug Stacks and The Cauldron are all half an hour’s drive away, as is Saint Govan’s Chapel by the sea and the sandy Broad Haven South beach (half an hour), backed by a lily pond.
