  • 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.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: What wasn’t to like - everything from meeting the owner who was super helpful to everything on the site being absolutely spotlessly clean. Best site I’ve stayed at in a long time

Disliked: Having to write a good review and risking the site not having a space next time I visit as it’s become too busy

Seriously nothing to dislike

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Good campsite with good facilties. Owner let me leave my car all day after checking out to watch the ironman race for free which was a huge bonus, and a short cycle from the campsite into Tenby.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Clean toilets & good showers. Basic but convenient site. Great little play area, washing up area & good disposal of waste. Close to Tenby and Saundersfoot. Nice shop for supplies just up the road.

Disliked: A little close to the main road, just to be aware.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked: Lovely friendly site, had a detailed text specifying pitch location before we arrived, turn left through gate etc., nice touch. Phil met us on arrival, lots of local advice for the Ironman weekend arrangements. Nice big pitches too. (Site is a great spot to walk and watch Ironman bike and run if you're in to that). Nice walk into Saundersfoot, 5min drive to Tenby.

Disliked: Nothing, all good.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: This was a great site and the owner was very helpful when I arrived on. Friday evening. The wash rooms were not fancy but purposeful and clean. I wouldn’t expect fancy but I know some do. Walkable to Saundersfoot and Tenby but maybe a bit fare for older folk and kids that aren’t used to a bit of walking. Walked down to saundersfoot and along the coastal path to Tenby and loved it.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike 🥰

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: Absolutely superb stay with my daughter, who was participating in the Ironman. Lovely big grass pitch with plenty of room for both of us, very clean and very quiet. Big dog field just behind us. Very friendly and helpful host. Couldn’t have asked for better. Highly recommended.

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.
