Buttyland Caravan & Camping Park, nr Tenby


We got to Mirey Lees about 8 am and had to wait a while for the Cows to come in for milking.

We set off just after half past and called in for the traditional full English at Stonebridge Island Toby Carvery, Just off the M42 near the N.E.C.

We had a nice uneventful journey until we were within a couple of miles of Buttyland when the Sat Nav tried to take down a narrow lane. A local hotelier came running out to say not to go down there and he helped us unhook the van and turn around in his car park. Very good of him.

We set off again and the Sat Nav took us to a hill that said unsuitable for caravans. Then Maddy remembered that the Website said not to follow the Sat Nav, but to follow their direction, which unfortunately were left at home.

We decided to Head for the main Tenby Road and head for Manorbier along the main Road. This time we found it quite easily.

Buttyland was quite a nice level site with touring pitches for caravans, campers and tents and is only 200 yards from the station, linking it with Tenby and Pembroke. It is situated in the heart of the Pembroke Coast National Park.

We got the awning up ok, just before the rain started and settled in for the night.
We had a ride into Tenby and found a Sainsbury’s where we did a bit of shopping, before heading back to the van for tea. We had some chips from the onsite Fish and Chip shop to go with our salad and Pizza.

We settled down for the night with the TV. TV reception was reasonably good.
