This was our first camping holiday. We decided on Nant-y-Croi Farm after reading the reviews on this website. All are accurate.
There is plenty of room. Tents/caravans are on a slightly sloping field with stunning sea views (dried very quickly after rain). It is a five minute walk to a private cove to watch for dolphins and seals There are separate male/female toilet blocks with toilet rolls and handtowels provided plus a separate block with 2 family-sized shower rooms. We didn't have to queue.
The utility room is a 2 minute walk away and next to the farmhouse. There are 2 large sinks with hot water for washing up, 2 washing machines, tumble dryer and fridge freezer. Washing machines and tumbler take £1 and 20p coins.
You can buy eggs, bacon, sausages, bread, milk, home-baking from the farmhouse.
The farmer and his wife are incredibly helpful - I was even offered the use of the washing line outside the farmhouse. After a short spell of nasty weather, one tent had collapsed. The family returned after dark- the farmer was waiting to light up the tent with his headlights and help them fix the tent. Then he towed a caravan in front of the tent to protect it from the wind. Apart from that, he or one of his employees visited the site 3 or 4 times a day to check everyting was OK, empty the bins and clean/stock up the toilets/showers.
The kids (7 and 12) had a ball! There's plenty of space and they loved the animals (especially a ride on Princess the pony - Thurs and Sun I think - Princess is saddled and helmet provided). There are plenty of beautiful beaches close by. We went to Aberporth (£1.50 to park all day, beach shop, cafe, take-away, lifeguards, toilets within yards), and went crabbing at Lower Fishguard harbour (free to park, toilets, countless crabs). There is a small exhibition called Oceanlab at Fishguard - it has free parking, a gift shop and an excellent cafe (cheap- inc. huge pots of tea and home made cakes).
We stayed for 4 nights - next time it will be for at least 10.
