WAY TO GO

From the east, the easiest way is along the M4 until it ends at Pont Abraham Services. The good-quality road continues as the A48, and the route is dual-carriagewa­y all the way to Carmarthen.

From there, it was the dual-carriagewa­y A40 to the St Clears roundabout, where we forked left onto the A477, signposted for Pembroke Dock.

After that, it was single-carriagewa­y roads, but a bit further on, a new stretch of road cuts through lovely countrysid­e, avoiding the previously long, arduous crawl through the villages of Llanddowro­r and Red Roses.

Just before getting as far as the Kilgetty roundabout, we took a left turn towards Amroth and a couple of miles later, we were driving into Little Kings Holiday Park.

If using sat nav, head for the nearby village of Ludchurch. If travelling from the North or the Midlands, go down the M5 to the M4 and head into Wales over the Severn Bridge, then carry on as above.

Set in glorious Welsh countrysid­e, this immaculate, family-run, 17-acre campsite provides a selection of hardstandi­ng and grass pitches.

If you really want to be spoilt, you can opt for one of the fully serviced pitches, which provide water, waste water drainage and hook-up, on a level hardstandi­ng with stunning views across the rolling countrysid­e.

As a bonus, these pitches are blessed with fine sea views and a picnic bench on a grassy area to one side – what more could you possibly want?

Elsewhere on the site, there are play areas for the children, a football pitch, a dog-walk and a picnic zone.

The main reception block provides a heated indoor pool, as well as a games room and a popular pub, the Tavern.

The reception area also doubles as a small shop for all of your basic needs. Dogs are welcome inside the Tavern, but must be kept on a lead at all times, and visitors should be aware that there are restrictio­ns on where and when your dog is permitted – a list of dates is available on the park’s website.
