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.

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

Fully-serviced hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Great value for money. Level hard standing pitch with EHU and water as well as a table and bench set on your pitch was perfect. £17.50 was a great price. There was no obligation to eat or drink here but we did and enjoyed a lovely steak meal with a beer.
Disliked Would like it better if there was a dog friendly area inside tye pub.
