Clear filters Great weekend at Oaklea Narberth
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Touring Pitches Aug 2022 Really lovely place to stay if you want to explore Pembrokeshire. Very peaceful.

Hope to see you again, John.
A tranqil site in rural Pembrokeshire VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Oaklea is a delightful, peaceful site, in rural Pembrokeshire.
The three fields are exceptionally well maintained and the site was clean and tidy at all times. On arrival, John gave us a tour and explained the facilities. Access to the site is easy, with only the last 400 yards on a very quiet single track road. It was lovely to wake to the cockerel in the distance and the variety of bird life was impressive. A single shower might prove a problem if the site was full but there are plans for more. For us, there was no issue at all.
The site is ideally placed for touring the area with Tenby and Saundersfoot only 20 minutes away. The fish and chips at Milton (near Carew) were outstanding. Gluten free and with a separate vegan and vegetarian menus, it caters for all tastes and was something very special.
As a constructive comment, a mop and bucket outside the shower, common practice on many sites, would help patrons comply with the request to leave the shower as they would wish to find it. We were both sad to leave and cannot wait to return.

Thank you we hope to see you again soon, we did have a mop and bucket for the shower which was stolen, we are replacing the floor in September which will be much better.

Amazing stay
Aug 2022 Myself and my partner stayed for one night. The owners were very welcoming and accommodating. We stayed in our recently bought camper and the pitches were spacious and beautiful.
We would definitely stay here again and are very excited to do so. Thanks for having us!

Tranquil and clean
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Great base for visiting the south and west of Pembrokeshire. If you're after a peaceful and clean site to either stay and just enjoy the tranquillity, or to use as a base for exploring the delights of the south and west Pembrokeshire area, then the site is great.
Clean, nicely laid out, with large pitches. Just the one shower available - but it's a great shower - and the 50p it costs gives you 15 mins of really good, high pressure showering 👌. Similarly, only the one toilet that we could see - but again a very clean and decent facility.
We thought it was great value at £22 per night (2 adults and a dog). Would definitely use again - our thanks to the owners. We really loved it.

First time camping trip
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 First time camping, so wasn't sure what to expect.
Could not have picked a nicer campsite. It was relaxing, quiet and spacious. John and his wife (sorry didn't get her name) were lovely and showed us round the site. The campsite was spotless.
The only downside was 1 shower for the site, but it was clean and we had no issues with having to queue etc. The site allows dogs.
Will definitely be going back.

Excellent stay on a cosy pitch
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Perfectly situated campsite for walks & cycling or visit to Tenby. Very friendly hosts! Nice big spots.
Great view and walk around the vineyard & wine-tasting option. Recommended.

Gorgeous site
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Beautiful site with vineyard and own produce wine. Very friendly and good humoured owners. Helpful and pleasant. Fabulous location close to beautiful Saundersfoot, Tenby, Manorbier and Barafundle bay. Only issue was showers....only 2 onsite that were very hot and you can't reduce temperature, which means you come out as sweaty as you went in. Have to pay at least 50p per shower I needed 2 x 50s to finish rinsing hair. Will definitely go back, great pitch size.
Site's response
glad you enjoyed your stay, there is only one shower at present which is 50p for
15 minuets and the temperature control is on the right hand side.
Look forward to seeing you again.

Delightful site
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Beautiful location, grounds tidy & well cared for. Flowers, fruit trees & well-manicured lawns. Generous pitches, private. Hosts were John & Jill & were lovely people who were kind, helpful and generous. We had a lovely meal & local ale. Would highly recommend for peace & quiet to get away from it all.

Thank you, we both enjoyed having you stay with us, look forward to seeing you soon. John.
Perfect
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 The park is set in stunning and peaceful countryside. Very little traffic noise.
The facilities were immaculately clean at all times, they need more showers, but I understand this is already planned. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful. We had a cuppa outside the restaurant and had the most amazing views.
Can't recommend enough and look forward to visiting again

Idyllic, restful location
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2022 Oaklea is a lovely, immaculate, quiet site. Just what my hubby and I wanted. It is in the beautiful area of Martletwy.
You are met by the owner who shows you around and is very friendly. There is a lovely restaurant on site, but unfortunately this closed at 5:00 pm. We thought this was strange as most visitors would be out and about during the day, and to have the convenience of a restaurant on site on the return would be a bonus. However, we were fortunate enough to have a meal on Friday, as it stayed open past 5:00 to accommodate some people who had booked but were not staying on the site. The menu is excellent, and the food is very, very good! We finished with cheese and biscuits and sampled the wine tasting tray.
Very enjoyable in a beautiful setting. The owners have only been there a few months, so maybe it's a case of finding their feet and sussing out the way forward. The restaurant could be rented out maybe, as I believe with the right advertising and promotions centred around the wine tasting and cheeses, it could be very successful. I understood the owner's intention is to concentrate on his fruit growing, so I understand managing the restaurant too could be a juggling game. I spoke to another couple who didn't understand why the restaurant wasn't open after 5:00 pm either. They arrived after 5:00 and were looking forward to a nice on-site meal. Sadly, this wasn't possible.
We found The Snooty Fox down the road for a nice meal. However, for anyone visiting with a dog, you are not permitted inside the main building of the pub, and if the weather is off, then you are sent to the outside 'den'.
We had a lovely stay, and to reiterate, the site grounds are immaculate and all other amenities are equally as clean.
If you are looking for a pleasant, quiet, and idyllic setting, then this site will suit you.
Site's response
Thanks for you comments, it states on our website that the restaurant is open from 10am to 5pm and customers are told if they wish to book for an evening meal we will be happy to cater for that. I do believe that we were open on the night in question as the people who were in the restaurant when you came, had booked a table for that evening.
Unfortunately, we have no intentions of juggling the restaurant. John.

Wow - what a beautiful location!
Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2022 Oaklea is a hidden gem! Just spent 13 nights there in a twin axle caravan and I can honestly say it was one of the best places we've stayed at. The grass pitches (electric hook up) are huge so you can have your unit facing wherever you like and still have so much space around you. As there are only 6 pitches it is very peaceful - even when the site was full you had so much space between you that you weren't bothered by your neighbours. The facilities are very clean and the addition of a further shower block will only enhance what is already an amazing place. John and Jill couldn't be more helpful - extremely friendly, chatty and the plans they have for the site are only going to improve this wonderful place. Wine tasting is a great idea and it's good that you can buy the wine together with chutneys and preserves. We had amazing weather but it did rain very heavily for 2 days however the pitches drained really well and were not water logged at all. It's a perfect place to go to relax and the surrounding area is lovely. We will definitely be back next year and hoping to stay for 3 weeks - fingers crossed!

It was great to have you stay, and you're right we are making improvements to the whole site. Still keeping it personal, look forward to seeing you both with your well behaved dogs soon. John
