  • 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.

What customers say

This tidy park’s a ripper – peaceful, clean, and great for families, with plenty of space and facilities. Owners are legends, location’s ace for Tenby and Saundersfoot. Showers are hot and washing areas are spotless. A few blokes said the loos are a bit old, but everyone’s stoked and keen to come back.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked Easy access off main A road.
40 min walk into Saundersfoot down quiet country lane. Down hill going but bit of a climb on way back.
Non EHU choose where you want to set up.

Disliked Nobody to greet on arrival so very impersonal. It would have been nice to see someone working around the site.
Site is looking a bit tired.
Smell coming from shower cubicles.

John B.

Unpowered grass caravan site (solo)

Liked Quiet site with flat pitches, a short work from an excellent farm shop. They have a pitch price discount for solo travellers which is very fair. The facilities are kept
scrupulously clean and there are free hot showers. The site is only a short distance from the start of the cycle path into Tenby. It’s a fair walk into Tenby but it can be done by taking the short cut via the cycle path.
The site is fairly priced.

Disliked It’s a shame the cycle path doesn’t start nearer the site but that has nothing to do with the site itself.

Elaine H.

Powered gravel caravan site

Liked The location, very easy to find yet peacefully tucked away off the main road.
Field available for dog walking, or a pleasant mile and a half to Saundersfoot beach along quiet, country lanes.
The best thing about the site however, is the atmosphere when you are there. It felt super traditional, welcoming, and ideal for families who enjoy the outdoor way of life.
Owner of the site was around if needed but clearly, privacy is respected.
There’s fire pits available to hire with logs and kindling, with an honesty box system for payment.
The shower block and toilets, whilst not the newest, are spotless and the hot water was the perfect temperature.
Just a lovely, special little place to stay.

Disliked Having to leave!

Wayne S.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked for one night but what was experienced was pleasant.

Disliked Do not pitch a tent along road that runs past site, the road is busy and the constant car noise especially especially during the early evening can be annoying. The road was still fairly busy at 11.00 at night

Recommend to friends Visit again

Lovely stay, park area was great.…

Powered grass caravan site

Liked Lovely stay, park area was great. Very good clean site, close to Saundersfoot beach and Tenby.
Good internet on phones/ signal.

Disliked Toilets/ showers are adequate. They have hot water and were clean no matter the time of day. But the walls have a rough rendered finish, which worried me when showering our toddler. It was lovely weather when we visited, but there’s no heating in showers so would get cold over winter months.

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.
