What customers say
This pub stopover offers well-maintained, level pitches with water and EHU, often including a picnic table and artificial grass area. Staff are consistently praised for friendliness and helpfulness. Conveniently located for exploring Tenby and Saundersfoot with a nearby bus stop, it's described as great value. While some noted a lack of showers and on-site rubbish bins, guests appreciated the 24-hour toilet access. Food at the pub received positive reviews, with some suggesting it would be ideal if dogs were allowed indoors.

Well maintained, clean, tidy, accessible. Friendly staff, lovely food.
Fully-serviced hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked We were pleasantly surprised, for a pub pitch it was very clearly marked out and well maintained. It was lovely, we had our own section of the car park, with artificial grass area and picnic table to the side of each pitch. It was just perfect for us and the two dogs to enjoy a chilled stop over, few beers and some home cooked food. Staff were friendly and helpful, they brought our food out to the pitch. Toilets were clean and tidy and left open all night. We already knew there were no showers available when we booked and wasn't an issue. We would recommend.

Fully-serviced hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Nice fully serviced pitch. Easy access to saundersfoot and Tenby. Bus stop within few minutes walk and easy cycling/walking route.
Good place to stay for couple of nights.
Disliked Just to be aware - you need to take your rubbish with you, the owner explained it’s just part of their license.
Also the pub itself doesn’t allow dogs indoors, you can however have them in the beer garden.

From the manager: Thanks for the review appreciated in relation to your comment on rubbish as I explained to you we are a CAMpRA authorised site and they have a policy of leave no trace in their guidelines, but also our local authority only does recycling so we would need to have 3 bins for camper vans and them to sort, and there would be a cost to emptying them to us as a commercial site. which is why camper vans are £17.50 to stay the night and not £45 we are a registered aire for campers and the policy is LEAVE NO TRACE
Walking distance to bus or train for travel to tenby etc

From the manager: Thanks for the review appreciated. I can confirm our toilets are cleaned on a regular basis, in relation to the Lamb Shank mentioned. I made enquiries to the staff who ask in our restaurant to all customer if everything was OK and there is no record of any complaint from yourselves. As i said we ask our customers. so why leave it until a review to tell us after the problem SOME CUSTOMERS NEED TO CHAT WHEN THEY ARE HERE IT'S NOT HARD
Excellent site

Liked Pitches great. Clean easy access very flat. Electric hookup, water and a picnic table readily available. Toilets inside building open 24 hours
Disliked Supposedly dog friendly but no dogs allowed inside the Hotel so no option of having a drink or food. No litter bins provided.

From the manager: Hi and thanks for the review appreciate the comments on the services. In relation to dogs we allow on the site and at the pub outside we are primarily a food premises and therefore dogs are not allowed where food is prepped and served. You could have chosen to eat outside or indeed have a take away meal to eat in your camper. We do not provide litter bins as per the licence we have from CAMpRA where their guidelines state campers should take their rubbish home and leave no trace. Our local council also has a policy of recycling and we would have to have several separate bins for that which would increase costs for campers. so we made the choice as per the guidelines take your rubbish home with you. there is a local site not far from us with the facilities you are requesting and they charge £42 a night we charge £17.50 currently
