  • Family-friendly site 10 minutes’ drive from lengthy Pendine Sands
  • Oakwood Theme Park and Folly Farm within 40 minutes
  • A five-minute drive from Laugharne
Sweeping green fields, lengthy stretches of sand and wild coastal walks… If that unleashes your inner poet, get inspired at Nine Acres Camping Caravan Park, a family-friendly site five minutes’ drive from Laugharne in Carmarthenshire. Dylan Thomas called Laugharne the strangest town in Wales, but that didn’t stop him putting down roots there and it certainly shouldn’t stop you visiting… Clamber around the ruins of 13th-century Laugharne Castle before following the Dylan Thomas Mile out to his Boathouse on the stunning Taf estuary – or, if you fancy some lengthier explores, join the Wales Coast Path for 870 miles of fab Welsh coastline rambles. When you’re in need of eats, set the barbecue smouldering or head into Laugharne to try some local bites. There's a washing-up area on site, along with facilities for waste disposal and dealing with rubbish. Four drinking water points have been placed at strategic locations around the park, so you'll not go thirsty around here. Unisex showers and toilets are housed in a block that's been thoughtfully provided with electric points for shavers and hairdryers and has central heating (big thumbs up to that in the chiller months). Please make sure that you dispose of all waste in the areas provided.

Electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: The general area is lovely with good beaches nearby

Disliked: The facilities were totally inadequate for the amount of pitches and people present. Our EHU was off the pitch and being ridden and driven over which I consider to be unsafe. Also signage had been covered by over.

From the manager: Sorry you disliked your stay

Electric grass touring caravan pitch

Liked: Convenient location for Tenby, Saundersfoot and Pendine. Nice position / location, easy access, level pitches and field.

Disliked: No-one there to greet upon arrival (in fact we had zero contact with the site owner at all), phone number supplied not working, appearances of 2 German Shepherd dogs running loose on the site (completely unacceptable), sporadic cleaning of facilities.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to comment on your stay here, sorry i was not available when you arrived, we do usually always have another member of staff here to see all visitors onto park, on this occasion we had sickness to deal with. As for the dogs we had fencing work going on and the dogs were out for not even 5 minutes. The phone number given was from Pitchup not me.

Clean facilities, very friendly staff and excellent site

Electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: EHU, water. Very peaceful surrounding. Uncomplicated telephoning with owner. But don’t see her. No Reception

Disliked: Two big and dangerous dog’s on site. Holders are not in good condition to hold them. Expensive. Toilets not ok. Unclean. Mirror broken and on floor. But this is the Problem of the user not the owner alone. Beach far far away. Not possible to reach like it seems on google maps. Cause there is a military area between campsite and beach

Local attractions

Be sure to pack your swimming cossie for Nine Acres stays – Pendine Sands is a 10-minute drive from base and is fab for swimming, surfing, kayaking, paddleboarding as well as its sand-based strolling and its ocean views… and perhaps land speed record attempts too? Malcolm Campbell set a record on the seven-mile stretch in 1924, so make sure to stop in at the Museum of Speed to get yourself up to speed. If you’re after more slow-paced history, there’s plenty nearby you’ll want to tick off the list, starting with Llansteffan and Kidwelly castles and the Tudor Merchant’s House in Tenby (all about 40 minutes away), before slightly longer jaunts for historical yarns at the National Wool Museum and reliving your youth at the West Wales Museum of Childhood. Stick around Tenby to nab a berth on seal-spotting cruises, spend a few hours walking and talking with the animals at Manor Wildlife Park (just don't expect them to talk back), and potter around Folly Farm – or you could stay a little closer to home base for an animal-free but spectacular afternoon at the National Botanic Garden of Wales. Finish your break on a high note by making a beeline for the heady heights and adrenaline rides at Oakwood Theme Park, 40 minutes away.
