I always write my reviews from the perspective of dog walkers who don't move the Motorhome once sited. So a perfect site for us is lovely walks directly accessed from the site with a hostelry/eatery in the local vicinity, and Freshwater East ticks all the boxes, for now.
Across the road from the entrance lane to the site is the beach which is currently dog friendly all year round, we used this constantly as the dog walk provided on site was a mudfest. The coast path runs from the beach access path and we walked the west route to Barafundle Bay, about 5 miles, apart from the first field which had horses in the whole route follows the fenced in farmland so no issues with cows and all had proper gates, no stiles, makes it so much easier with the dogs. Nice cafe situated just before the last leg to the beach. Just outside the campsite is a holiday village which has a bar/cafe area called The Longhouse and also does a takeaway menu, we had food from their after our long walk and it was lovely.
My caveat re the beach is that there is a public meeting at the end of April to discuss the proposal of having a dog ban in the Summer months. There are petitions in both the campsite and the holiday village for visitors to sign against the ban.

Reasonably easy to find, the access is via a steep hill but that is more problematic when leaving, most cars I saw struggled to yank a caravan up it as there is no run up ! 5 min stroll from the beach and its a lovely beach in a cove. All walks are enjoyable but steep. The site itself is typical Caravan Club. Pleasant welcome, nicely laid out, immaculate toilet and shower facilities etc etc. If you don't have nippers go for the lower part of the site, that's furthest from the playpark. There was a bit of choice language up there, mainly parents ! If you want surfing try Freshwater West about 8 miles away, better waves. Tenby is beautiful and worth a visit as is Pembroke Castle where a lot of effort has been put into making somewhere of interest to all ages.

Stayed one night here during our travels around Wales - as we were only one night the warden asked us to stay on a particular pitch rather than choose our own - wasn't a problem as the pitch was huge and well located near the facilities block.
As with all caravan club sites the facilities block was always clean and warm.
The dog walk is just a long, thin path though bushes and trees so did nothing to exercise our three Labradors. The beach, however, is a five minute walk away and is dog friendly so we had some very happy (and wet !) pooches.
There is no mobile signal on site but we got by with the wi-fi and found the site to be very relaxing.

The site is in a wonderful location, a stones throw from a fantastic beach and a short drive to some great attractions. It is on the bottom of a steep hill though so care is needed.
Wardens were helpful and friendly, giving us tips on places to go.
The pitches are spacious and the site is very pretty and well laid out, although it was a bit of a trek to the toilet. The block was lovely and clean and warm though.
We enjoyed sitting out listening to the birds and to children playing in the park. A great addition for families.
After checkout we parked up in the large beach car park just outside the site and enjoyed an extra day on the beach.
Can't wait to return!

The Bad
Arrived at advised time just as it started to rain and was given a map by the main warden and told to find a free pitch.
Touring around site a number of pitches appeared to have hook up taped off another had a hook up but no pitch number.
Walked back to wardens for clarification but they were totally uninterested it was after all after 6. 00pm (just). Told that the pitch number had been removed as the electric wasn't working. Would have been good to have been told about both these issues on arrival.
Pitched up eventually.
We had issues with our children being swore at at the playground by a group of older children, but we were convinced by now the wardens would be of no assistance so had to sort out ourselves.
The Playground is located at one end of the site and does not have regular adult passers by to moderate behaviour (suggestion for improvement)
The toilet blocks are closed for an hour each morning (male and female rather than staggered to reduce to 1/2 hour) for cleaning at a time to suit the wardens with much discussion amongst campers.
Mobile coverage was none existent and site wifi very fickle and slow (£2. 50 a day)
The site has a general demeanour of being very regimented with a more elderly clientèle.
The Good
The site is located next to a lovely beach with even better beaches nearby.
The Sports bar nearby provides a more lively environment to watch the Olympics with reasonable food and prices. They also hire out paddle boards kayaks etc.
Toilet blocks were clean with good facilities and no queuing (except during cleaning periods).

We stayed here for 3 nights in May half term and wished we could've stayed for longer! The location is great. We were able to explore lots of the beautiful coastline with ease and loved how close it was to the beach (although it was too chilly to really make the most of it whilst we were there). The site itself was pleasant enough. It was peaceful (apart from the sheep in a field next to the campsite who did not stop baa-ing during the night or day!) with good size pitches. The toilets and showers were extremely clean, as you would expect from a club site. There is a small playground at the site but it is fairly limited. The only downside for us really was that we had to have a hard standing pitch as the grass pitches were not yet open. We couldn't really see why they weren't open as it was the very end of May and the grass wasn't waterlogged. We never choose hard standing pitches so had to buy rock pegs to get our awning pegged out. Other than that it was a great site that we would definitely return to!

This sheltered ½ miles long and narrow site is set at the bottom a very steep hill (90m climb in 1/3 mile) with (almost) direct access to the delightful Freshwater East bay.
140 pitch site has spacious pitches and two toilet blocks, with bizarrely only 2 wash up sinks, three WC’s, three showers male/female facilities per toilet area.
Best to stock up before arriving at the site as the nearest convenience Spar shop (very well stocked) is 2 ½ miles away (up said hill) at Lamphey, which also has a very good local bakers shop.
Good coastal walks to be had direct from the site and having climbed ‘cardiac hill’ very enjoyable cycling to be had along the quite county lanes.
No mobile phone reception at all on the site, but site has Wi-Fi and TV reception via plug in at EHU.
If you are looking for a peaceful site with access to a stunning Pembrokeshire bay you cannot go wrong with this site.

Fabulous site just a short distance from beach
Tried to book on line which showed no vacancies but when we phoned they were very helpful
There are only a few tent pitches which are on the access road and are quite narrow, so a bit noisy at night with cars coming in and out
The staff were lovely and all needs were catered for, lovely shower blocks, hot water day and night, and beautifully cleaned
A really friendly site which we will definitely return to

As per usual standard, the site was very well maintained.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Only downsides for me were:
Persistent dogs barking at all hours
Kids riding above 5mph on bikes, scooters and skateboards
Wifi should be free, as it is in 99% percent of pubs these days.
THere is absolutely no monile phone signal at this site (which I was fully aware of anyway) Wifi should be free, as even know I was on hoiday, due to my work I still have to 'check in' on my e mails.
This is a great site.

This is a long narrow site which gently slopes up the hill (not much room for caravans to reverse onto pitches)
The facilities are well maintained as you would expect from a caravan club site with 2 shower / toilet blocks and a few basic provisions available in the reception
The site is situated a 5 minute walk from the beach which was very nice ! There is a restaurant on the adjacent holiday village but it didn't look as though it was still in business
The nearest pub is in the village at the top of an extremely long steep bank (we didn't attempt the climb)
There is no mobile or TV signal however each hookup has an aerial point which provides coverage of 8 TV channels
It's a great place to stay if you just want a beach holiday but there's nothing else locally around the area
