Definately one to avoid. Initially we found the one member of staff helpful and friendly. However, the atmosphere wasnt quite right. There were posters of rules and regulations everywhere, although it seemed staffing the campsite was not required. The toilets and showers were never cleaned, bins were not emptied. The staff member didnt know anything about the area or even how to get onto the local coastal path. All the facilities were closed even though it was still September.

We camped here with our children (8-13) at end of August. We found the facilities clean and pretty well maintained. The tent site had a large open area where the children made friends and organised football, rounders, etc themselves. We walked a few times to the beach at Lydstep, which is around 10-15 minutes away, over a main road. Not totally perfect, but OK for accompanied children who can walk under their own steam. There is a very convenient bus service to Tenby which stops very close to the site, which we used. The site had a hot dog van each day (and for breakfast), as well as a bar. We didn't try either, but there was also an ice cream van during the middle of the afternoon. The children particularly enjoyed our stay. The site wasn't what I'd call 'pretty', so might be more suitable for families rather than someone looking for a tranquil break in beautiful surroundings. We were happy with our choice of site and enjoyed our stay.

Stayed overnight with The Safe Foundation at campsite. The owner had kindly offered to host us for free!!!
Compared to many campsites we encountered whilst running the Big City, Little City challenge (walk from Cardiff to Start David's) this site we considered luxurious.
The site includes good WiFi, warm showers and bar with pool. The staff are friendly and love a good challenge of pool.
If I was to do camping again in Tenby, I may consider returning to this place ✔

Fantastic site perfect for families. The meadows was spacious with electric hook up and water tap. Great facilities very clean toilet and shower area. High washing up facilities for a change. Very friendly helpful staff give a warm welcome to this family run site. Bar well stocked , entertainment room great for kids. When we return to Tenby we will definitely stay at Whitewell again!
A true gem of a find!

A nice clean, very friendly family run site but not great for campers.
The pitching field is the most open to the elements and closest to the coast so full on coastal breeze and farthest from everything on site. The toilets, showers and wash up area are really far from the campers field. I will never understand sites that put mobiles and hardstands for caravans and camper vans all around the facilities when it's the campers that actually need them!! To make it even more difficult they've installed a sheep wire fence the whole length of the electric pitches AND and man made soil wall on the campers side so that you can't even cut through to the toilet block you have to walk the full length of the field and all the way around. It was a long walk in the dark and lashing rain with small kids to go to the toilet.
The ground in slightly hilly but easy to peg. However the man made soil mounds/wall with strimmed grass clippings provided the perfect spot for rodents to live witch tunnelled under our tent and kept us awake and then chewed through the tent floor.
the bar is comfortable but a bit dated, Not much in the kids arcade which was fine because they couldn't spend all their pocket money! The two playgrounds are tiny and really only toddler sized stuff.
The only access to Lydstep Beach is pedestrian only via the private Static mobile site across the road. It's a good 10 min walk downhill to the cove so you need to travel lightly to the beach as its an even longer walk up!!
I can't fault the people running the site they were fantastic but just based on proximity to the facilities (and the fact my large tent was eaten) we all said we would never camp there again. And it's such a pity!

Very nice campsite. Clean showers and toilets. Good drainage on fields during heavy rain. I would rate 5 stars but it is a bit noisy on weekends. Not the sites fault I know but on the website it said they tell everyone to keep the noise down after 11pm. Well there was a party going on till 3 and the security didn't do much in the way of stopping it. Apart from that I would recommend it.

Peaceful nice pitch. Toilets are clean and adequate. First day here. Up to now my only little moan would be that my two dogs are not allowed in the bar. Although they can sit with us outside its raining so not really do able. Staff were welcoming and friendly on arriving. Not too far at all from Tenby and dogs are allowed on South beach. Food is available on site in the evenings but breakfast was had in town. A hidden gem is the little farm tea shop just down the road. Hens and chickens pigs and sheep happily running round in the field and fresh eggs and veg for sale.

Showers are lovely but be prepared with £1 coins and 50ps. The site is nosey at all times, be it children playing in parks or adults walking through the site. If you want a quiet peaceful time in a tranquil Tenby site this is not for you. If you want fun, up all night action then this is the place for you! Just don’t try to put the kids to bed!
