Date of Visit: May 2018 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Hsygrove 2 reviews from this member

 Nice site, toilets kept very clean. Close to road but not too noisy. Nice staff.

Very expensive though-£25 per night without electricity plus £3 for awning and £3 for dog so a total cost of £31 for a non electric pitch!

6 or 7 mins drive to Tenby. No electric point in shower area, 20p for hairdryer and I used 40p per dry for long hair.

Would stay again if it wasn't so pricey as there are cheaper sites close by.

Reviewer: Ginajones 5 reviews from this member

 We visited over August bank holiday weekend and site was at capacity.

There are a small number of showers and toilets and although a bit dated they were clean and supplied with toilet roll and we were able to use without queuing although we waited until after breakfast.

Short walk across the road (dangerous crossing though) through nearby holiday park to a nice beach. WIFI worked pretty well in reception area but not in camping field.

There are a couple of playgrounds, small wooded area and as long as the field is not at capacity which on Saturday of our stay it was there was plenty of room for kids to play and explore.

Lots of great beaches within half an hour drive. My kids had great fun here even on busiest weekend of year.

Lovely burgers from the burger stand on site.

Reviewer: TerryPB 1 review from this member

 Good location, good site, good showers etc. Unlike some campsites, June is high season prices. Fine. BUT, in June bar not open in week, so no entertainment, no meals available, no Sky sports etc. So paying.

High season prices but not getting high season facilities in the week !Shop still closed at 9am, no information about opening times.

Eventually found staff member, told not possible to put sign up as opening time varies??? However few hours later, sign appeared, shop opens 10am to 5PM. Shop very limited, no papers, milk, bread etc. EMPTY ice cream freezer.

Staff not particularly helpful. Pity. Would like to challenge owner to get to Tenby in 5 minutes as is stated 


Date of Visit: June 2016 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: HelenBFC 2 reviews from this member

 We stayed for 8 nights in late June/July. This site is a very good location for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast path, only a few miles from Tenby with tourist information, lovely beaches, pubs, and a very convenient Sainsburys. The site is quite close to Lydstep beach (although considerably more than the 'few steps' it claims on the site! It actually takes at least 10 minutes to walk there, and you have to walk right through a static caravan site, or find a tiny, poorly signposted path on a busy road to go on the footpath)

For the vast majority of the time we were the only or almost only unit on the enormous field. I cannot imagine what it would have been like if it had been crowded, as in the ladies' bathroom, there were only 2 showers and 4 loos, and only 2 sinks with no private washing areas (similar in the mens' bathroom). These were clean at all times, but the pressure of a crowded campsite on such limited facilities would have been very difficult.

We found it very annoying that there was no hot water in any of the bathrooms or washing up areas for the whole of our stay. Initially we were told 'It's being fixed' and 'It'll be on later' and finally after 3 days, 'The boiler is broken, we're waiting for a part'. I'm very relieved that we had EHU otherwise it would have been our gas rather than their electricity we were using to boil kettles to be able to wash or to wash up.

The shop/reception were open 9-5pm and were able to freeze ice packs for us but these opening hours made it difficult to swap them more than once in 24hrs so not easy to keep everything cold and fresh.

Although they were fairly friendly, we felt that the owners were rather more interested in their horses (in nearby field) and in their static caravan site and new caravans, so if you stayed in a tent, you were really just a bit of a poor relation.

There was a clubhouse and bar, which we did not use so cannot comment on.

We paid £10 for internet access for 1 week, but the signal was very slow and intermittent and it was very difficult to answer emails etc. 


Date of Visit: August 2015 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Snappedpole 9 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for a week at the start of the school summer holidays. They have a hard standing camping area and a grass area too. We were allocated the grass area which I preferred. Units where pitched round the outside of the field and some in the centre. Pitches where big and there was plenty of space in the field for kids to play where you can still keep an eye on them.

Tenby is great and a short drive away, they also have a sainburys, Pembroke dock is 15 mins by car and has a greater choice of stores.

We did not use the clubhouse as we never found the time, but I did poke my head round the door it was nice and the kids were being entertained well. There is also a small arcade area next to the clubhouse.

We enjoyed it a lot, the site is not too big but still has all you need. Showers and toilets are modern and always clean even in the busy times

 Just came back from a wonderful week at white well holiday park,

I think for someone to say the shower blocks are unclean must be barmy they was immaculate apart from the busy times, plenty of toilet and showers so no queuing which is nice for a site of this size, lydstep beach is only a 5 minute walk away, lovely clean beach with beautiful views on caldey island, the park was in a fantastic location only a few miles outside of tenby and a very handy bus stop at the front the entrance, clubhouse was nice and welcoming with a brilliant children's entertainer starting from 6 pm had a great laugh and can't wait to go back see you all soon.

 Great site, friendly staff, no hassle, facilities were great, we had a hard standing pitch and daughter & son in law had a grass pitch for their tent immediately behind us, we asked to be together and the staff accommodated us with no hindrance, great for our four grandchildren, ranging from 17 months to 8 yrs, Lydstep beach just 5 mins away, great for Kayak exploring, the site is well maintained, it's in easy reach to Tenby with a bus stop right outside the camp entrance! 


Date of Visit: July 2014 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Geakefamily 3 reviews from this member

 This is a lovely site. We stayed for 2 nights in our trailer tent. The two hook-ups nearest to our pitch were already in use so we needed to borrow an extension from the site (for which they took a £10 deposit). Our pitch was lovely and level, and the field was nearly empty which was excellent for us as it gave us an amazing view. Didn't really see the owners all that much.

The clubhouse was lovely, friendly and the pizza was excellent (better then dominos). We went in both nights with the children and we're made to feel very welcome.

The showers were lovely, clean, spacious with plenty of lovely hot water.

Playground looked lovely but we never got around to taking the kids.

The ice cream van coming around the site was an excellent touch which the children loved.

Near enough to Tenby, Saundersfoot, Amroth etc without being stuck in all the hustle and bustle.

We would have booked another weekend in August but when we phoned we were told that electric hook-ups were only available if booking for 4+ night, which is a pity as we were only booking the day before going for 2 nights and we drove past on the way to the site we eventually booked and the field had plenty of space and hook-ups left.

 Just had a week at whitewell holiday park

Was a little quiet during the weekdays but that is to be expected as we managed to book a week off of work ;-) the touring pitches are a really good size and nice & level which is a big help when reversing onto your pitch,

The site itself it very well maintained I thought the grass was being cut whilst we were there and it looked beautiful after,

The site itself has a couple of shower blocks 1 was shut whilst we were there but the other shower block had plenty of showers & toilets inside to accommodate everyone on site even when the site got really busy on the weekend, the showers were cleaned throughout the day the only time I could say they was dirty was when other campers made a mess and never bothered to clean it up:-( which is a shame as they are probably the nicest showers I've been into on a caravan park.

Had a great night in the clubhouse ( beer was lovely ) karaoke was a ball & to win on the bingo was the cheery on the cake.

Can't fault the park had a brilliant week stay and have already booked for the summer the staff are really helpful to help with what they can, great location only a 5 minute walk to the beach

Reviewer: Jamiecoast 2 reviews from this member

 Had a brilliant week at Whitewell for the Whitsun bank holiday in our touring caravan, me my wife and 3 children,

The park has a brilliant location only around 2 or 3 miles to tenby which was perfect as you are out of the hustle and bustle,

The park itself is lovely only around 5 or 10 minute walk down to the beach, there are 2 parks on site 1 for the smaller kids by the clubhouse and another park for kids a little older by the touring field which was good as it kept my 3 entertained for the week.

Can't fault the staff couldn't do more for us even reversed my tourer onto it's pitch as I am not the best driver even with all the room provided haha.

The only thing we didn't use was the bar which looked a nice place but with the beautiful weather we had never really went to the bar.

Would definitely come back again hopefully for the august bank holiday see you soon whitewell

Reviewer: Docndebz 1 review from this member

 Very quiet site, only about 1/4 full this weekend. Disappointed that only 1 ladies shower in use in 2 blocks, (one block was locked despite a notice on the out of use shower saying use that second block) This seemed to be due to site not wanting to clean more showers than needed. Having stayed in several very busy sites during the summer and never having waited for a shower, was rather upset at this, as this was really the only facility we used for the £31 per night. But it does seem to be expensive in this area - paid far less for far more in the Dordogne. Owners seemed friendly enough, but would look for somewhere cheaper next time, if possible, when it's just for a base and shower. Nice pub up the road, Lydstep Tavern. 


Date of Visit: August 2013 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: PeachesMcLean 2 reviews from this member

 This is a large site with two big fields for tents. Bank holiday weekend, so I suppose we had to expect it to be busy. Not quite full though, and a reasonable space between the tents pitched around the edge of the fields. For some reason, the tents lined up in the centre seemed much more squashed together.

Quite a slope, as others have said. We managed to get a spot out by the hedge (slightly more sheltered in the wind).

Fairly noisy campsite, but again, that might be because it was the bank holiday weekend. There were two large groups in our field. Both loud until after 11pm but asked to quieten down by security.

Security come round quite regularly to check that all is well. Fires in firepits aren't allowed. Someone had left their dog alone in the tent whilst they went out, and having listened to the dog bark and whine for well over an hour, I mentioned it to the staff who quickly phoned the owners to come back, so they do sort problems quickly.

Showers and hot water for washing up both struggle at peak times, little more than a dribble of luke warm water. Showers and washing up areas as clean as you'd expect in busy periods (ie, not very, but that's often down to other people not clearing up after themselves).

Can't comment on the bar, didn't go in, but full of people happily listening to karaoke and enjoying themselves. Games room looked like an amusement arcade.

There's a bus into Tenby from just outside the site.

Reviewer: JerimiahC 1 review from this member

 The perfect place to stay for a family holiday!

Highly recommend! 10/10!

I stayed here for two weeks in the summer with my wife and 2 children.

I chose to stay at Whitewell because the location of this park is delightful, a quiet scenic spot near Tenby town with a bus that stops at the front gate. The beach is walking distance and from there you can access Pembrokeshire Coastal path. One day we walked all the way from the Park to Tenby town via the Costal path, which was absolutely beautiful. The area of Tenby itself I would highly recommend to all- there is plenty of things to do in the town. The nightlife is also very good.

The children loved this park. There is a play area and games room, which they enjoyed. They also had plenty of company as the majority of our fellow campers were also families with children. As a parent I felt the park was a happy safe environment for children. For this reason we are very keen to stay here again

The tent pitch was good. A spacious plot and agreeable neighbours. Showers and toilets, Washing up area all modern clean and tidy. There was also an on site launderette but never used it so can't comment. Overall facilities were good and made our stay very comfortable.

Shop was small but handy for daily groceries and camping spares.

The Bar was great. A very warm atmosphere and family friendly entertainment. Reasonable priced food and drink.

The site is also family run, and so customer service was excellent. Overall, warm and welcoming with a relaxed family feel. Highly recommend to all!

 Stayed here over Whit with the wife and two kids aged 8 and 5 and the dog. Location very good only a few miles from Tenby. Access to the site was very good and you can walk to the beach (pebble and no dogs) through the haven site opposite. The staff were helpful and friendly. The reception has a shop which looked a bit understocked. Pitches are fairly level with hardstanding for the awning which I struggled with bending several pegs. The electric tripped a few times but no problem as the switch is on the box. My wifes high standards were met by 2 shower blocks that were clean and spacious with free hot showers and an excellent pot washing facility. There is laundry facilities on site as well as a club (did not use) and small park suitable only for toddlers and also an arcade type games room. Overall a good site, bit pricey but location very good there is a few local small shops nearby a sainsburys in Tenby and Tesco in Pembroke. I would recommend Freshwater east dog friendly beach and Stackpole.

Reviewer: Phil L 1 review from this member

 Stayed here in the summer for 10 nights. We enjoyed it very much. The site is clean and well organised. Some of the staff are youngsters, as other reviewers have said, but so what? I got the impression it's run by one extended family, but could be wrong. Regardless, they were all very helpful.

Good points.

Toilets and showers, and pot washing facilities are all good, clean and well designed.

Camping field is huge with lots of space for kids to run around.

Nice and quiet in the evenings.

Bar is good enough.

Bad bits.

Camping field is a little slopey in places.

Electric hookups are quite spread out so our 10m cable didn't reach. That said, we were in a corner so the configuration may have been unique to that plot. And the site gave us a longer cable at no charge for the duration, so I can't complain.

Improvements.

The play area is rather limited and could do with being expanded.

The location is good, but don't be fooled by the proximity to the coast as there didn't seem to be beach access within walking distance. Close to everything, and on a bus route going into Tenby.

It was the first place I've camped for 15 years so I have no frame of reference, but I'd be happy to go back.
