  • 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.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Absolute little gem, such a lovely little site toilets and showers lovely and clean at all times. Washing up area was lovely my little girl loved it as the sinks were lower than ones we have stayed on before and she loved helping do the washing up!
My children loved the park area and the sand pit to play in. We will definitely be booking for next year, so calm and relaxed quiet times between 10pm-8am worked well.

Disliked There was nothing to dislike about the campsite except I should have booked a longer stay as we didn’t want to come home

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (solo)

Liked Great camp site with level pitch, clean facilities, hot showers and good quality toilet paper, soap and washing up liquid provided. Would definitely stay here again, great location- less than a 10 minute drive to Tenby. Farm shop is a 5 minute walk round the corner selling local produce

Luke S.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked The park, games such as swing ball and football nets on site were a great addition for the kids.
The walk into Saundersfoot was good, just over a mile downhill on a single track road.
Facilities of toilet blocks and showers were clean albeit dated.
Great to be able to have a fire pit to toast marshmallows and make s’mores.
Washing up facilities were great; washing up liquid provided incase you forget!
Washing machines available, plus big fridge/freezer and battery charging packs for an extra charge also available even though we didn’t use.
Owner came to check our arrival after we signed in the visitor book and check everything was okay.
Check in was effortless - received a text of instructions of what to do on arrival.

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.
