Practical Caravan

Perking up in PEMBROKESHIRE

GETAWAY TRAVEL GETAWAY

LONGING TO GET away after what had seemed like a never-ending winter, we at last saw a forecast for a few bright, sunny days ahead. So having quickly loaded up the caravan, we set off for one of our favourite campsites in West Wales.

After about an hour and a half battling against a 40mph headwind, we eventually made it to Little Kings Holiday Park, just off the A477, about 15 minutes north of Tenby. Having pitched the van, we relaxed over lunch before setting off to explore.

Ambling in Amroth

Our first stop was the small coastal village of Amroth. Since our last visit, the winter storms had been at work and the bank of stones adjacent to the access footpath had been made even higher by the relentless pounding of the sea and the large amounts of wood that had washed over the top.

The concrete ramp down to the sandy foreshore remained intact, however, and with a bit of judicious walking between the stones, we were still able to reach the beach, where many other visitors were enjoying a walk on the sands, while dogs bounded about, having a whale of a time.

I'm sure that by the start of the Easter holidays, the local councilagain. Despite all that, this remains one of our favourite spots to visit, and with a Pay & Display car park tucked away behind the shops and cafés, there is normally no problem finding a place to park.
