Lovely place and fantastic views of Manorbier Bay. Easy reach of the beach by foot (off road) or by free parking on the side of the hill, 2 lovely pubs in the village with Tenby and Pembroke nearby.
Campsite lovely with a spaced out field, lots of large potholes in road all the way from the main road not so good for my car or caravan! (not allowed to drive around them because you get shouted (loudly) at for driving on the grass by the man on the tractor!
Shower block has 2 showers which are in need of re-furb - there was a brush provided to sweep the mess out yourself but even this needed replacing.
Toilets ran out of toilet paper and there was frequently no hand towels but always soap. The toilets themselves needed cleaning regularly not just once a day, toilet seats were hanging off etc.
Didn't use the dishwashing facility which were next to the toilet block as there were only two sinks for all those tents. Electric hookup was the same for tents as for caravans 6AMP which kept tripping out all the time, my kids had no chance of paying their ps3 (which wasn't a bad thing) you could run your lights but could not boil the kettle.
Owner Andrew was a very nice and approachable and always got things done, the rest of the staff were not so helpful. Shop was stocked with basic things that you would need for camping, plus point is they did fresh baked baguettes and croissants daily.
There was no playground for children.
Expensive holiday cost us £150 plus they wanted to charge us for an extra car!

This being our first tentative steps into the world of camping we (me, my wife and 8 year old) were a bit apprehensive to say the least. On arrival we were greeted pleasantly and given clear instructions to find our pitch, we were told that we had a choice, as we didn't have EHU.
The site itself was good with a great walk through the woods and past a ruined castle (Manorbier Castle) to a small coved beach. Showers were free and along with the toilets and wash up areas were clean and tidy.
All in all a very enjoyable weekend, obviously we can not compare to anywhere else yet, but a pleasing start to are camping adventures.

What a smashing little site, neither this area or site was our 1st choice for the bank holiday break, but the weather forecast for else where was atrocious, apart from the weatherman getting it wrong we really enjoyed our stay here
Location is 100%, lovely beach just a steep sometimes slippery 10 mins walk away, easy access to Pembrokeshire coastal path, which despite the weather we did attempt!
The loos & showers aren't the best but I was made aware from other campers who have stayed here in the past that these were actually a 100% improvement, the washing up areas are very open to the elements, but hey! this is camping.
The booking over the phone was very pleasant and efficient without a hefty deposit or min night stay, and greeting upon arrival also friendly and helpful, not too many overbearing restrictions, and you pitch more or less at your choice, other reviews stated the site was over priced, but compared to some other sites we have stayed at, I considered this to be very reasonable, we spent aug bank holiday weekend here for the same price as per night in the lakes.
Tenby is beautiful, but disappointed in pembroke, but lots lovely little villages around area, although it was a busy time of year, we didn't ever feel overcrowded, nice private pitch, we will definitely come to tenby again and will most certainly choose to stay at parkfarm,

Visited this site at the end of August for one week.
The touring and camping field is up a steep hill wide enough for one car. The pitch we were given was a hard standing pitch which made it difficult to peg down your awning. We therefore had to put one wheel on the concrete and one on the grass which made it very difficult to level the caravan because the levelling blocks sank into the mud.
We were pitched on number 19 which had a tent pitched directly in front which was only about a car length away from the front of our caravan which made parking the caravan very hard indeed.
Toilets and showers - on the main camping area there were two showers for the whole site and were very busy at times therefore we drove down to the main site to use the showers there.
The shower trays were at least 18' away from the wall so if you want to wash your hair you had to stand on the tiles and duck your head under the showerhead (I am 5'5' so anyone taller would really struggle). One morning myself and two sons went for a shower and my youngest son couldn't get his shower to work. When he told the owner she said it was probably because there was more than one shower being used!
The toilets were okay. However when it comes to washing your hands there is liquid soap but nothing to dry your hands with except toilet roll so you either had to let your hands drip dry on the way back to your caravan or take your own towel.
Laundry, the washing machine is cold fill only so we took our washing to a launderette in Tenby which was reasonably priced.
There is no play area for kids.
Overall we enjoyed Wales and the local areas, Manorbier Castle, Pembroke and Tenby are great and well worth a visit.

Stayed here for 4 nights.
Although basic facilities on this site the staff are friendly and helpful. We can't thank Jean and Mick, site staff, enough for helping us so much during our recent stay. We broke down a mile from the site and had to call recovery services out to take us to the pitch. They even helped find us a great mechanic they knew to help us sort the clutch problem out. They even offered to tow us to the site on the Sunday night.
Site itself is spacious and convenient to the lovely local beach and accessible through the woods at end of tourer site (although a bit steep/slippy as it had been raining)or there is a direct path there (takes about 15 min walk).
Castle is amazing and local town, pubs very nice. People seem very welcoming here and always willing to help. The local train station is not far, and gets to Tenby in 10 minutes, very reasonable too.
Showers are basic but always hot (could do with more on the camping field), especially in peak season although the other shower block where the statics are to be opened very shortly.
Very quiet and peaceful at night-time.

We had a great time at this site, 2 families with 5 kids all ranging from 16 to 2. We wanted a site that had no club house or attractions that could start any tantrums with the kids and that's what we got, yes it would be nice to have more showers on the tent field and not by the static caravans on the other field but with the sun out as it was we didn't mind waiting the odd 10 min for the shower! Around 7-8pm every night they came up and took our breakfast orders that was so blissful to have fresh bread and pan au chocolat that we didn't have 1 fry up!
The walk to the beach was like a little adventure for the kids going through the woods then past the magical castle with the dove cave that you can go in. The beach was great again nothing anywhere for the kids to have they hands out asking for money.
overall we had a lovely experience, you have to stick to the rules which are fine, Pembroke as a big Tesco and little Asda. Tenby is very pretty, The village has a pub that the other family went to on the last night and said the food was lovely and good price.
We will be returning to this site again, thanks for a great time.

Lovely caravan site, really well run by competent friendly and helpful staff. Very quiet and peaceful site, with a short walk (approx 10 mins) to Manobier beach and only a short car journey from Tenby. Showers nice and hot, clean and roomy. Toilets also kept clean with liquid soap and toilet paper provided. As previous camper mentioned this site is a little undulating, but do not let this put you off as all grass is kept nice and short and was not at all 'boggy' at time of our visit (early May). Would definitely visit this site again.

This park is basically 2 separate sites. One on the lower field is for the static caravans. This is where the basic site shop is and the internet cyber cafe area. The touring field is in the upper field which involves driving up a 1 car lane for around 400 meters. Now what happens if there is a car/caravan unit coming the other way I do not know. Best thing is to get the missus to walk up the hill and phone you back to say the road is clear!
Once up there, you are welcomed by a well kept but quite undulating camp field. Pitches are quite well spaced out if not that level in most cases (make sure you bring your wedges and wooden blocks for the wheels and legs).
There is no play area but our 2 boys loved playing in the trees that are scattered around!
The touring field shower block consists of 2 showers, five ladies toilets, three mens toilets and 4 urinals. Always plenty of toilet paper and always kept clean.
It is worth mentioning that some pitches are prone to getting 'boggy' so ask when booking. ( Pitch 39 is probably the best)
As for location, you cannot really fault Park Farm. Just 15 minutes stroll takes you to the very interesting Manorbier Castle, which looks over the picturesque, Manorbier beach. There are many coastal walks from this area and Tenby is only 5mins drive away.
Park Farm is a little overpriced in my opinion as the facilities are basic but you are probably paying for location, which is 5 stars.
Owner's note: When there are more than 50 occupied pitches then extra facilities at the end of the laundry building on the static park are opened for use.
