  • Peaceful site in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
  • A 10-minute drive from Pembroke; 25 minutes from Tenby
  • Firepits and barbecues allowed; dogs and families welcome
'Easy to get to but difficult to leave' is how the folk who own Parke Farm Camping describe the place – have a quick look at a map and the site pics and you'll see exactly where they're coming from. Sandy beaches for swimmers, surfers and coast path ramblers are within a few miles of this pretty Pembrokeshire site – which, by the way, is located within the gorgeous surrounds of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. For town times, historic Pembroke – where there's a railway station, supermarket, pubs and other amenities – is 10 minutes away by car. Those keen on surveying the local seascapes will probably be pleased to know that most of the 186 miles of Pembrokeshire’s coast path are within a similarly accessible distance. Life on site is all quite laidback – families and dogs are welcome (although there's an adults-only area that you can request if you'd prefer a bit of quiet time with your beloved), and there's no problem lighting up firepits and barbecues. Various amenities are on hand to help life run smoothly, including free wifi, a washing-up area, showers and toilets, and there's plenty of space around the place to relax and take in the fresh air. Please note that some sections of the local coast path may be closed when the local MOD firing range is in use. Usually, this is outside of bank holidays, school holidays and weekends, but check online in advance if you want to be sure of access.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The campsite was well located with several brilliant beaches only a 10-15 minute drive away (Barafundle, Broadhaven South and Freshwater West). It was in a peaceful place and it was fun watching bats whizz around at dusk every night. The individual pitches were a good size and separated by longer grass which had a nice feel to it. We managed to fit two big tents on one pitch and used the other for parking and kids to play. There were 5 showers in total with two slightly larger ones for families. All the showers also had a toilet in them which was helpful with young kids. 5 showers was just about enough to serve mid-August levels of business and avoid needing to queue 95% of the time. Whilst they weren’t particularly powerful they were always warm and worked well enough. The free tea and coffee in the morning was a nice touch as was the free WiFi. We had the freshly made pizzas on the Friday night which went down really well and I would recommend. The on-site shop was small but had everything we needed. There was an honesty pot too meaning you could buy things even if there was no-one there which was appreciated.

Disliked Couldn’t have fires or BBQs unfortunately due to nationwide restrictions and high fire risk but the site looked well set up with wood and kindling supplies. The toilets lacked a full size sink or one which didn’t double up as a toilet cistern. Wired rather than solar power to the smaller toilets would have been better for lighting as they were sometimes quite dark. Some dog owners didn’t respect the dogs on lead policy.

Would recommend if looking for a basic, clean and friendly campsite.

Powered grass campsite (large)

Liked What a friendly campsite! Nice and quiet - lovely to have the grass area in the middle of the fields for the children to play in, lovely addition to have free tea and coffee in the morning with an optional communal area to sit in. Everywhere kept clean in general.
Location brilliant for Pembroke, Tenby and some really lovely beaches.

Disliked There were sometimes queues for shower facilities, but never more than 5-10 minutes. Slight incline to pitch.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The location is fantastic. The mown pitches give you your own space, while keeping a friendly atmosphere. There are plenty of facilities, and all are great. The bonus is the free tea and coffee in the morning, especially when avoiding using stoves in hot weather. It also creates a place to say hi to other campers.

Disliked Some other campers didn't keep their dogs on leads, which caused a few challenges. This wasn't specifically the fault of the site, but could have been emphasised to campers a bit better maybe.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Very quiet location set back from the road (which itself is quiet anyway). The campsite was well maintained and the facilities clean and well topped up. The free coffee and tea in the mornings was incredible and even just using the hot water for porridge in the morning saved us time and effort boiling our own at the tent.

Showers were nice and hot, even if slightly lowpressure but that was manageable, and washing up facilities good too.

Overall, great campsite well situated between Freshwater West for beach and surfing and Pembroke if you wanted to eat out with lots of great coastal walks about.

Disliked Some pitches are slightly hilly but they walk you round when you arrive and let you choose which spot you'd like so you can choose what's best for you

Powered grass campsite (large)

Liked Friendly welcome, big pitches and some of the UKs best beaches right on your doorstep. Our fourth stay and we will be back. Great stone baked pizzas on site on Friday nights too.

Disliked All showers double up as toilets. Kept very clean but would be nice to have a dedicated shower block.

Local attractions

Tenby (25 minutes' drive), a firm favourite for beachgoing folk, is within easy reach, but quieter, lesser-known sands like Broadhaven South beach (10 minutes) should also be on the itinerary – at this latter spot there's ample opportunity for swimming and sunbathing, or for more active times like canoeing and angling. If you can pull yourself away from the coast for a couple of hours, the rewards are rich indeed. Head for freshwater frolics at Bosherston lily ponds (five minutes' drive), a spectacular National Trust-managed stretch of land with dunes, footpaths and pools where otters dwell. While you're likely to see a lot of wildlife while strolling around, spotting more exotic critters might require a trip to Manor House Wildlife Park (20 minutes). Also inland is Lamphey Bishop's Palace (15 minutes), a ruined ecclesiastical mansion where prelates of yore lived in sumptuous surrounds. And as you'll gather while driving around, historic buildings aren't in short supply around here. Also top of the list are Pembroke Castle (10 minutes), where you can admire tall turrets while cruising by in a rowing boat, and Manorbier Castle (25 minutes), a Norman landmark notable for its gardens, dovecote and watermill.
