Date of Visit: July 2016 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Mikey1banana 17 reviews from this member

 This is a lovely site, in an excellent location. The choices of pitch are wide and varied and access to the country park next door is incredibly easy. The country park offers a multitude of activities for all the family.

If you use Caravan Club Sites for the quality of the facilities, the friendliness and helpfulness of the wardens and general good order, then don't come here. This site is feral. Children run in and out of pitches and scoot/bike around the toilet block from mid-morning until late into the night. There is not much in the way of respect for other peoples property and space from many other campers.

The main toilet block is tired and in need of overhaul. There is a large toilet block consisting of 4 showers and 5 toilets for each sex, while the small one has 2 toilets and showers each. During check-in we were told that the small block could only be used while the main block was being cleaned. It turns out that the small block is being used regardless.

When you go for a shower make sure you keep a close eye on your footwear. Someone tried to steal my crocs on one occasion during my shower (Yes! Seriously!).

I know hardstanding ground is supposed to be exactly that, but bring very strong rock pegs and a sledgehammer with you as you will need it. The ground is impossibly difficult to get pegs into and I ended up bending a good number during pitching.

The reservation of pitches is prevalent. The use of firepits has been spotted on a few occasions. There are tents, more than pup tents, being used to accommodate extra people even though we were told you couldn't do this. The list of things going on here that are having a huge blind eye turned to is massive. Very much a case of one rule for one and one rule for the rest.

I have tried to talk to the site wardens about these issues and their attitude was one of 'what do you want me to do about it?'. That just about sums it up. This isn't a cheap site to come to with a family of four during the summer holidays, yet the Caravan Club seem to be cramming people in and charging as much as they can to stay here.

 Very nice site. Situated by the enterance of Pembrey Country Park and there is a walkway into the park, so you are able to use all the fantastic facilities there. Shower facilities are spotless as you would expect and grounds well kept. There is a play park for the children and large pitches. It is a little expensive at peak season but all tge Caravan sites are. There is anotger site in Pembrey Park which is a lot more reasonably priced. 


Date of Visit: August 2015 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Kinza123 32 reviews from this member

 We stopped at Pembrey for 5 nights on a small tour of Wales and had a good time.

As usual the facilities were great, clean toilets and showers, beautifully manicured grass, everything taken care of.

The wardens were friendly and efficient, and it was good to know that there was a toilet annexe for when the main blocks were being cleaned.

We were disappointed that staying at the site did not give access to the adjacent country park, this is a £5 charge to park for the day, a discounted pass for £15 is available for a week.

The beach took us 15/20 minutes to walk to, a very easy walk too.

The weather stopped us fully enjoying the beach and the park - it rained!

There are a lot of children on this site and I do understand why, it's great for them, but care needs to be taken as they obviously have no sense of danger and zip in and out on the roads.

Al in all a very good site.

 This was our 2nd visit to Pembrey (with a 2 year gap!) and it was a good as we remembered.

We turned up before noon (which we hate doing) but the wardens were really welcoming and let us pitch up early. We found a lovely large hardstanding pitch down a little cul-de-sac, perfect for us. The site is large but in small sections so never feels big! Facilities are spotless and the central toilet/shower block is accessed by key. There's a very small washing up area (2 sinks only and not a lot of elbow room!). Water, bins and recycling all around the site.

We stayed a Pembrey simply for the biking and we weren't disappointed. First afternoon we biked through the park and onto the number 4 cycle route to Kidwelly. A small, quiet town with castle runis. The cycle route takes you across farmland with dis-used pillboxes and lovely wild flowers. Later that evening we biked into Burry Port for food but came back disappointed. None of the pubs looked particularly welcoming so we ordered an Indian takeaway that was delivered to the site (when he managed to find us!). It was very good and well worth the wait!

The following day we biked along the Millennium Coast Path that runs almost from the site, through Burry Port and onto Llanelli. Some of the views are fantastic and the path/road is mainly flat and smooth. On the way back we stopped off at the Pavilion Café at the cricket club and sat outside in the sunshine having our lunch with lots of other cyclists. Good, fresh sarnies and reasonably priced too.

We biked around the park again that evening. There really is a lot to do at Pembrey and I have no doubts we'll be back again in the next few years.

 What a fantastic site. Friendly wardens, well laid out site, lovely mix of pitches. Right next door to the country park with acres of space to explore, and what a beach awaits at the end, it goes on for miles. Site even when full, didn't feel cramped. Lovely and peaceful majority of time, bit noisy at weekends with lots of children about. Kids need to be told by the parents, not to hare around the site roads on their bikes. Would I go back again. Most definitely.

 We have just spent two nights at Pembrey. This is our second visit to the site (we live overseas and don't get back to the UK that often) and we made a special effort to return as we were so impressed the first time. Once more, we were not disappointed. We had a really friendly and efficient welcome. Though quite busy, we still found a lovely spacious pitch, level and quite secluded. The toilet/shower facilities are excellent, similarly washing up area and laundry. A nice touch was the visits from the baker and milkman. Then there's the location. With our two dogs we walked through the lovely country park, across the dunes and on to the most beautiful beach - perfect. We'll definitely be back next time we visit South Wales.

 Our only disappointment was having to leave.

This is a fantastic site for those families who enjoy the outdoors and dog owners like ourselves who like to walk straight out of the site for a great walk and not have to drive to find a walk.

Pembrey caravan club site is great, the facilities are clean and of the usual standard for caravan club sites. The grounds are very well maintained, and the pitches are huge. The wardens are very welcoming and informative we requested to move pitches to a sunnier position which the wardens were only too happy to help us with.

The country park is situated right next to the site. It has miles of well signposted trails, woodland walks and the beach is a mere fifteen minuet walk, the allocated 'dog' beach will not disappoint with its wide expanse of beach as far as the eye can see.

I rarely commit to returning to a place as there is so much of our beautiful country to see, but we will return to Pembrey as it is a perfect place for a great touring holiday, relaxing, but with plenty of activities to do, and lovely long walks. Its perfect for families and dog walkers.

 First time visit to this site and will definitely return. From arrival to departure the everything was spot on. The wardens couldn't do enough for you and were always around doing work and passing the time of day with you. Toilets and showers were spotless whenever you went there and the pitch and surrounding areas were spotless to. The country park is literally a short walk away but beware I would advise you to walk in otherwise its a £5 fee to take the car. There are ample places to visit in the area and for cyclists your right on the coastal path. Pay a visit you won't be disappointed

 We have had another fantastic holiday, this year the wardens were fantastic, always very helpful and very friendly made our holiday more relaxing. The showers and toilets were always clean and tidy they even used to go in at night and clean them again. The beach is fantastic, the toboggan run, the skiing was great for kids not too far away from several supermarkets, and great Indian just up the road and they delivered to the site can't wait to book again for next year

Reviewer: Crazyguider 25 reviews from this member

 We stayed at this site from 23 to 27 July 2014, during the heatwave. The wardens gave us a very warm welcome and showed us which pitches were free, and where all the facilities were. We chose a grass pitch as it was so dry. We had been to Pembrey Country Park as day visitors and wanted to stay for longer - we weren't disappointed!

The site itself was always immaculate. It was lovely to see children riding bikes and scooters round the site, with enough space round the vans to play and not be a nuisance. The wardens were always around, but very unobtrusive. They never interfered, just let you get on with your holiday which is always good.

My children didn't use the play area as they are a little old for that so we pitched further away from it.

We found having to have a key for facilities a little unusual, plus the fact that there are 7 privacy cubicles and only 4 (or 5)showers. I never saw more than 2 cubicles being used, but did have to queue for a shower - perhaps more showers and less cubicles would be better? (and hence 9/10), but understand that this is necessary due to the closeness of the country park and the fact there only seems to one main loo block on the said park.

Each morning a milkman would come round, followed by a bakers van, and there was also an ice cream van one evening, which was a lovely touch.

The park was great, as was the stunning beach, but it was so hot we had to retreat from the sand and return in the evening.

We enjoyed all the facilities the park had to offer - the kids learnt to ski, my daughter had a riding lesson and my hubby enjoyed cycling and the toboggan ride. I was quite happy to lie back and enjoy the whole thing!

The town of Kidwelly is just up the road with a large Co-op for food. There is also the castle which is worth a visit. As we've stayed in the area before, we only left the site for food shopping and a meal one night. I had looked in the info centre for restaurants and was overwhelmed with the choice so asked the wardens. They recommended the Cornish Arms in Burry Port. From the outside it looks like an old boozer, but if you want excellent fish, a very extensive menu, great service and prices, this is the place to come!

We've already decided that we want a week here in 2015, and are planning accordingly.
