Wales - Pembrokeshire
Hampton Court Holiday Park, Pembrokeshire
Hampton Court Holiday Park is a small friendly family run holiday park set in the heart of the beautiful area of Pembrokeshire and the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park in West Wales.
The Park itself is about six miles from the harbour town of Saundersfoot and about 3 miles from the market town of Narberth whilst the Pembrokeshire county town of Haverfordwest is thirteen miles. So we are conveniently located to explore the area and take in the various views whether you wish to do so by wheelchair on one of the ever increasing accessible footways or simply enjoying some fish and chips in your car on the harbour front at Saundersfoot whilst watching the boats come in with the tide.
The park is owned and run by us the Russ family. We live on the park with our children one of whom is profoundly disabled and a wheelchair user and it is this reason we decided to start catering for the disabled holiday market. We realised that as our son gets older and bigger it has become very difficult if not impossible to find truly accessible accommodation to go on holiday in and most importantly that there do not appear to be many places offering the facilities my family and I need in a “normal and inclusive setting”.
We decided we were in a unique position to try and do something about this and so designed the log cabin we are currently offering for hire as a holiday destination on a holiday park with other holiday makers but in accommodation built (not adapted) for the wheelchair user. We have equipped the cabin with a variety of things that we think will be of use to a lot of wheelchair users particularly those who require carer assisted hoisting.

Not as advertised
Though the people letting this property are lovely, this property is not as advertised.
The access into property is very steep with a lip at the top and not doable for active wheelchair users. The kitchen is not adapted.
There are no views from the garden which it says there are...the garden which consists of mainly slabbed and concreted areas and the 'patio' consists of plastic chairs on a car standing.
Very run down and lots of repairs and maintenance needed, very dated bedrooms and needs a deep clean...cobwebs and dirt in all corners, broken flooring etc. Broken trampoline. Broken/leaky showers.Weeds...you get the picture.
Disabled room smelled of mould and stale urine and is freezing, no central heating in this property. On top of this the accessible bathroom is part of the bedroom, there is no door so you're looking at the loo when you're in bed, very disability medical model and might explain the horrible smell in the room. Room not set up for couples though there is another bed so you could ask for them to be moved together. Though they seem to provide some continence products and various aids these are all on show in the bedroom/bathroom which isn't great either.
The listing suggests this is luxury accommodation but couldn't be further from it, we have stayed at Gwel an Mor which is what we would class as luxury, this is more like 2 star at best but prices are the same as a 5 star property.
Very disappointing. We booked a week but only stayed one night as the place was filthy and accessible bedroom/bathroom was unacceptable.
Owners offered to clean again but it was beyond cleaning. And they offered a full refund but we suggest you ask for more photos and clarifications all these issues have been solved before booking. Photos are not accurate or up to date and don't show bathroom set up.
It is only 5 minutes from black rock sands which was the only redeeming feature besides offering ceiling track and profiling bed (very hard mattress).
Very sad to have driven all this way and had to go home.
