Pembrokeshire site recommendations...

[Deerfoot]

After a couple of fantastic weeks in Cornwall last year we're toying with the idea of visiting Pembrokeshire / the Gower peninsular this year.

Have you any decent sites to recommend in that area? We've got the usual compliment of kids (10 & 7) but generally go for a nice quite site as opposed to sites with a club house etc.

Thanks in advance.

Loads of great stuff..

Cornwall is booked for this summer now. We had a fantastic two weeks in Cornwall last summer and I`m guessing she`s playing safe (although we`re staying at two different sites...).

We`ve had good holidays in Snowdonia before so we`re happy with visiting Wales, in fact I loved Snowdonia.

I`m going to try and get her to do Pembrokeshire in the spring half term...

Holy Thread Resurrection Batman!

Pembrokeshire site booked for this summer.

Thanks for you help guys, even if it took us a year to listen...

There are plenty of year round dog friendly beaches in Cornwall. Whereabouts are you heading?

^ Freshwater East.

It was available for the dates we need (some of the others needed a Saturday to Saturday period during peak season) and it'll allow us to do the Dorset Steam Fair this year.

Many thanks for that post above, looking forward to it!

That's further south than we normally go.

Constantine bay and Holywell bay are good for dogs, Holywell especially, it's National Trust so although it's near to Newquay it doesn't attract the normal Newquay crowd.

So to bring this to a conclusion we have just returned from a couple of weeks at the CC site at Freshwater East and it was pretty good.

The weather wasn't great but it didn't stop us doing anything really. We spent quite a bit of time at Freshwater West in the sea. It's not as crowded as Cornwall, is cheaper by far (taking into account parking charges and eating out) and the scenery is excellent.

The site was good despite my lad getting threatened by some feral child at the swings and all in all we'll visit Pembrokeshire again.

France next year!

^ The Freshwater Inn?

We went there on a Wednesday evening, arrived at 1830 and they couldn't even take a food order until 1930, it was all a little weird. They appeared to be unable to cope with the prospect of customers... I did manage a couple of nice pints of IPA there though while we waited and also met a nice Swedish family who were on holiday there.

Anyway, the food was OK, nothing special but the views were great.
