Date of Visit: May 2009 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Coffee18 5 reviews from this member

 Used the site on many occasions over the years so we were disappointed to find the cleanliness and staff attitude was a lot to be desired. The baby changing unit in the toilets was mouldy and rusty, the toilet blocks themselves were grubby and needed a good dusting to get the cobwebs off! The bar meals and service were also a disappointment

We were also told that the golf area had been closed because it was too much trouble to keep, the last time we were there (2007)it was lovely and something to do if you wanted to stay on site and not go swimming?

On the plus side the views from the site are spectacular,and the main play area is ideal where you can keep an eye on the children.

The shop was well stocked

It is also very convenient for the local attractions, although you need your car as the walks are very steep.

Reviewer: Grumpyman 27 reviews from this member

 Rang and booked this site as travelling through the area and informed they were open. The site is classed as 5 stars. On arrival met by very friendly staff who took my £16 from me for one nights stay. Then informed me no bar open, no swimming pool and no restaurant and the showers are 20p a session.
It was at this point I realised we were the only people stopping but it would have been helpful to have been told the facilities were not available before driving the 20 miles out of our way.
We were then guided to the pitch we were to use (bearing in mind nobody else there) which backed onto the noisy road running alongside.
The site itself appears quite clean and tidy. The showers I see are well documented and I would simply describe them as pathetic and out dated.
Perhaps the 5 stars refers to the statics as I would consider the Touring side around a three. 


Date of Visit: September 2007 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: JustinParker 6 reviews from this member

 Booked based on previous reviews and the facilities available for part week stay. On arrival the reception was closed but notes left in window pointed us to staff available to help us get checked in and pay £5 deposit for electronic tag for access barrier to site (only £4 is refunded on departure) Gate access key card reader is on Passenger side?

Large site comprising of static holiday home rentals, touring park and camping park with toilet and shower blocks for each. Camping park is at the back of the site behind the touring park with large EHU provision on arrival only three other tents already setup and due to windy weather were given choice of pitches. Site slopes gently downhill looking across coast to Saundersfoot and the sea. Very pretty.

At the bottom of the camping field is slightly rickety children's play area. In the main touring park is a more robust wooden fort and roundabouts and slides etc for the children. Toilet / Shower / washing up and laundry at top of field to one side. Only 2 washing up sinks which for such a large site might get busy in peak season. Family toilet and shower room was more spacious than those in main toilet facility. All showers take 2 x 10p for 6 mins or 3 x 10p for 9 mins. Cleanliness was as I would expect for a more commercial site with floors getting a little muddy and grassy early in the morning and then not being cleaned until late at night. Bad points were the showers in the family room were too hot so young children may find it uncomfortable. Also the hot taps in the washing up and toilet rooms seem to be fed by niagra falls so you end up getting splashed considerably just washing your hands or doing the dishes.

Other site facilities were good with well stocked shop and a very nice indoor swimming pool. No showers in the swimming pool area so need to get showered elsewhere afterwards.

Narberth and Kilgenny (sp) are only short 5 min drives away for local co-op and spar type shops. Narberth is very pretty and well worth wandering around. Chinese takeaway in Narberth ok but the Indian take away on the corner of the one way system is excellent.

Would consider using the site again but would prefer showers areas to be cleaned a few times a day to keep them cleaner.

All in all a nice site that I expect as long as it isnt too busy would be enjoyed by most. 


Date of Visit: June 2007 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Lin122 1 review from this member

 I have visited this site many times over the course of about 7 years, each year it has improved significantly.

Last year we went at peak time in August 2006, and can agree marginally with some of the other reviewers comments. At that time the tank holding the hot water was insufficient to meet the high season demand. During my stay the block did experience some down time while this was fixed and for a couple of days at this time there was a slightly stagnant smell. During these peak times we were disappointed that we were unable to use the bar before 9.30 as it was solely reserved for dining guests. As we had a poor pitch that year due to late booking, and at that time a defective tent (now replaced) when the weather was bad this was inconvenient for us.

This year we deliberately avoided peak time by choice so that it would be quieter. When I called to book I stated I was disabled and they could not do enough for me. They discussed my needs in depth and we decided on a pitch. Upon arrival, they moved me along to a bigger one near the facilities to make my stay much more comfortable.

The weather was appalling, it was the day of the great floods in Britain and the winds were high. We returned one day to find the wardens had gone to trouble to retrieve our gazebo and pin it down safely.

The cleaners turned up each night to thoroughly clean the units. There had been a problem as a former camper had vandalised the toilet seat in the disabled unit. As soon as I told them the toilet seat was a problem. The next morning it had been fixed. Also during our stay they were preparing for the peak season by installing new boilers so that a constant flow of hot water was available for all. They were aware of the previous year's problems.

We didn't use the pool this year, the weather was far too cold. We used it last year and it was clean and comfortable. Just a shame it closed at 6pm as we would have liked to use it early evening.

Each morning we saved time by buying freshly baked croissants which saved us having to cook breakfast. We also ordered delicious rolls to take for packed lunches, thus saving time and money.

The view over the bay is a wonderful thing to wake up to.

The site is placed well to get to most of Pembrokeshire. The shop has sensible prices compared to usual cam site shops and the staff were friendly and helpful. We did our main shopping at tyhe Co-op in Kilgetty which also had a cash point. There was a convenient Chemist in Kilgetty too. Only a short drive away.

As for paying for showers, I have never yet been on any campsit anywhere where hot water for showers was free. I thought the prices were reasonable.

The disabled facilities were good and I was treated well. With the appalling weather during our holiday, I may have gone home had I been on another site.

 Beautiful views across the bay, good sized pitches.
 
However, the facilities were very disappointing.  The toilet blocks smelled for most of the day each day we were there. When they did get cleaned, it seemed no more than a cursory mop with a well used mop head.
 
The indoor swimming pool was a yellowy green colour - we drew our own conclusions from this. We used it once but not even my not at all fussy kids wanted to use it again. The terraces and changing rooms around the pool were extremely dirty.
 
The bar and restaurant food (which we used once) was basic and good value. The service was relaxed and the children made welcome.
 
The kids loved the play areas.
 
There's a difference between a muddy, mucky day and a general lack of hygiene. Little Kings definitely suffered from an absence of an acceptable, effective cleaning schedule.
I love camping and don't mind a bit of mud and muck but I do not want to risk a season's worth of filth again and so will not be returning.

Reviewer: TheOracle 1 review from this member

 We have been frequent visitors to this site for the last 7 years and have always had pleasant holidays there. This year however, we were dismayed to see a distinct lack of general maintenance on the site. Trees, hedges and grass were all overgrown. The toilet blocks left a lot to be desired, which is probably due to there not being enough facilities for the number of people packed on to the site. At one point it seemed as though we were in the midst of windbreak city - Costa Del Trecco even - heaven forbid!

Paying for showers too? Come on!

On the plus side, the wardens on duty, (Guy we think?) and bar staff were always helpful and pleasant. The atmosphere in the bar was very relaxing, the food was great - well done to the bar managers who seemed to take it all in their stride - service with a smile is so rare these days!

Would we recommend this site? Provided the owners sort out the shortcomings (a smile would be nice too!) mentioned above then, yes, maybe we would.

 Just got back from a great time at Little Kings. Great site with central play area, most nights were spent having a few beers while the kids played safely. This was very relaxing which is what we all look for in a holiday!

No problems at all. The fact that the weather was fantastic helped too.
Hope to return next May half term.

Reviewer: Stolliday 8 reviews from this member

 As a whole this was a good site and I would recommend. Do not let my areas for improvement put you off visiting this site.

Good points - Lovely views, site bar was good and food was a reasonable price. Pitch size was good. Site vehicle speed limit was 5mph. Kids loved it. Plenty to do in the surrounding area.

Areas for improvement - Site was full and facilities struggled, namely the toilet, shower and washing up facilities. Showers were only warm and not hot, but did the job (although you had to pay 20p for the privilege!). The site used a lawnmower that did not have a grass collector, this meant the cuttings were easily picked up on your shoes and ended up on the toilet/shower block floors and in your tent.

Reviewer: Mcbm67 1 review from this member

 What a wonderfull site. You cannot ask for a more pleasant place to stay, wardens up until all hours of the night making sure that the camp is safe and secure and also cleaning the shower and toilet blocks to the highest standards. 


Date of Visit: June 2006 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Fitsam 2 reviews from this member

 I have just read the previous review and cannot believe we stayed on the same site.  OK the showers weren't as hot as they are in our van, but as soon as I found out how to work the controls properly they were fine! The staff were very informative and always smiling.  The pool was very clean and great for our 3year old. 
Yes, there was some road noise from the lane, but it was never intrusive, perhaps the previous reviewer stayed during a bank holiday? The bar was quaint, very friendly staff and the beer was good. Although we didn't eat in the restaurant, the food looked appetising and very reasonably priced. 
Nearest shop is about a 10min drive - Tescos is in Haverfordwest. The site shop has most things, including freshly baked bread etc., in the mornings - the croissants are to die for! and if like us, you can't find what you are looking for, the staff will do their best to find it for you.
 
My wife particularly liked the 5mph and the security barrier (cards fiver deposit - 4 back when it is returned) I just like the peace and quiet and the beer!
 
If you want a quiet site, extremely safe for children, and somewhere to relax then this is the site for you!
