Freshwater East site, food shopping

Really your comprehensive post answered all the OP’s questions. After that thread drift was inevitable. As the OP’s query has been suitably answered I don’t see a problem with that.

We have both a caravan and a MH, and tend to use each in a different way. We think of caravanning as “hobbit” touring, there and back again, as you tend to plonk a van down and then explore by car, going home each evening. MH touring is linear. You plot a route, stopping off at things of interest along the way, and carry on. Both are a fantastic way of exploring somewhere.
You will see a lot of MH’s parked up and used like a caravan on Club Sites. We do it occasionally ourselves for a couple of nights, going out by bike. Some Club Sites are fine like this, others need a bit of research if planning not to use MH daily.

Hope the OP has a lovely time, it is a very beautiful and interesting area, well worth exploring away from just FE.😁

We spent 6 nights in Pembrokeshire last year. 3 nights near Narberth, and 3 towards Newport, in the north. We saw and visited lots in the east of the county, which is where we wished to explore. Much rather spend fewer nights in more places, if that makes sense. When we had the caravan, we would have probably spent 6 nights on one site.

We took the caravan to FE, we enjoyed having the dog friendlly beach across the road and there are some good coastal walks especially onto the adjoining NT Stackpole Estate and the more isolated beach at Barafundle. However we  used the car a lot and did trips out to Pembroke, Manorbier etc and the nearest shop would have been a long walk up the hill. With our present motorhome we'd have probably managed all these things too unless we just wanted a day or two by the sea before moving on. 

The site is very long and narrow so if you want to do less walking stay near the front. 

We tour all year round,  away for about 250 nights a year, and often stay for 4 or 5 nights on a site before moving a relatively short distance to the next site. We find that we can appreciate what is in the area over that time scale, can go back at a later date if we think we have missed something or want to visit a place again, and I get bored being in the same place after a few days anyway!😁

Totally agree Nellie

We also tend to stay 4 or 5 days as we prefer to see a small local area before moving on. It seems that many long stayers in this country do seem to tour a largish area from a site, a much greater distance than we do. In the vast majority of cases, we move in the region of 25 miles max before starting all over again. Ideally we like to see the local area by foot or bus with the car being third choice.

We've had a report this has gone off topic. A polite reminder to everyone to please keep conversation on track and start a new discussion if appropriate in the correct area. Many thanks.
