  • 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.

What customers say

Great spot! Clean, peaceful, and family-friendly. Spacious pitches, top-notch facilities (hot showers!), and friendly owners. Close to Tenby/Saundersfoot. Some bits are a bit old, but most are chuffed. Lots plan to come back!

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Good location, 5 mins by car from Tenby.
Very clear text message on morning of arrival with where pitch was and pitch marker with name on.
Felt very safe and had a nice relaxed feeling.
I was a little concerned about the recycling centre next door but little noise and no smell at all.

Disliked Facilities a little dated but were immaculately kept clean so not much to complain about.
The main road was being resurfaced at night which kept my wife awake on the first two nights but that's just the luck of the draw!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great location. Clean & tidy. Child friendly, great small park area. Lovely landscaping with trees. Accommodating owner who extended our stay upon request subject to availability.

Disliked Poor WiFi signal on our pitch, but could have been demand issues but didn't bother us enough to complain about. Unfortunately a family arrived late pitching up in a camper van on our last night with noisy children but it was our last night and maybe they had travel issues, kids could have been more respectful though but let's put that down to parenting.

Steve R.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely set up and so easy to get to as just off an A road. Everywhere was clean and fire pit hire and wood were added bonuses.

Disliked Showers could do with an upgrade but still clean and warm. Downside of being so accessible is close proximity to road, although not a big issue.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Everything! We booked this last minute and I’m so glad we did. We’ve only had our Motor Home 6 months and have been away several times, but this was the first time I felt really relaxed. There were enough rules etc to keep the site running beautifully, but still allowing you to enjoy your stay. Great pitch, warm showers, good washing up facilities and waste disposal. Really felt like a holiday! Walk into Saundersfoot and then you MUST use the Fflecsi bus to travel back - what a great service that will be lost if not used more. Da iawn!

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.
