Roar-some UK Safari Adventure: Lion King Themed Tent in Carew! - A Review That's More Hakuna Matata Than Meticulous!

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I just got back from a stay at the "Roar-some UK Safari Adventure: Lion King Themed Tent in Carew!" and let me tell you, it's less "polished travel brochure" and more "wild adventure with a touch of, well, rustic charm." Let's dive in, shall we?

First Impressions (and a Few Stumbles):

Right, so, the Lion King theme? It's there. Like, you're not going to mistake it for a minimalist Scandinavian retreat. Think plenty of animal prints, earthy tones, and maybe a slightly overenthusiastic commitment to the "circle of life" vibe. The tents themselves are pretty spacious, actually. Surprisingly so! And the air conditioning? Bless. Needed it because, hello, UK weather is unpredictable! But getting there? That was a mission. My satnav seemed to develop a sudden aversion to Carew, leading me on a scenic tour of fields and bewildered sheep. Access wise, they do mention accessible facilities, but, and it's a big BUT, I didn't personally check them out. My trusty legs were working overtime just trying to find the place! So, double-check accessibility details if it's a must-have.

The Good Stuff (and the Stuff That Made Me Chuckle):

Honestly, the location is amazing. Stunning Pembrokeshire countryside. Absolutely breathtaking. They do offer Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! which is a lifesaver. Otherwise, I’d have been lost in the wilderness without Instagram. And I could catch up on my emails. It makes the whole experience way easier.

  • Things to Do: Okay, this is where it gets interesting. The whole premise is Safari. But, well, it's more glamping than actual safari. More like, 'luxury camping' meets 'Lion King obsession'. There are plenty of walking trails nearby, and the coastal scenery is phenomenal. But don't expect to see lions (unless you bring your own cardboard cutout).
  • Ways to Relax: Ah, this is more like it. They boast a Fitness Center, a Spa, a Sauna, etc. I, however, prioritized napping. But I’m told it’s all lovely. I'm also told they have a Massage available. That sounds divine. I didn't use the Pool with view, but I peeked and it looked stunning.
  • Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: The restaurants are… well, they have them! Restaurants, Coffee shop, and Poolside bar are amazing!. There is a Breakfast [buffet] is available. I'm not a buffet person, but I didn't starve. They also have Room service [24-hour] Which is a major win if you're like me and prone to midnight snack attacks. They do have a Vegetarian restaurant and Asian cuisine in restaurant.
  • Cleanliness and Safety: They seem serious about cleanliness. Anti-viral cleaning products, room sanitization and so on. Makes you feel safe. Plus, Staff trained in safety protocol. Good to know.

The Quirks (Because This is Where It Gets Interesting):

  • The Tent: Okay, the tent. Beautiful. Spacious. Comfy bed. But… the "Lion King" theme is everywhere. Pictures of Simba everywhere, and even one of the staff members was in a “Hakuna Matata” shirt! It definitely leaned into it.
  • The “Extras”: The gift shop. It was there. Filled with… Lion King merchandise, naturally. I saw a stuffed Timon that I almost bought. Almost.
  • Not So Good: While the staff were friendly, service could be… inconsistent. Sometimes I had to wait a bit for things. A bit of work needed there.

For the Kids:

Family-friendly? Absolutely! They have Kids facilities and a Babysitting service. My guess is that, for the little ones, this place is going to be pure magic.

Getting Around & Other Conveniences:

Car park [free of charge], so car’s sorted!. Air conditioning in public area is a must! And Elevator is an absolute blessing. They have a Business facilities as well.

OKAY, HERE'S THE DEAL:

This place isn't perfect. It's a bit rough around the edges. It's not five-star luxury. It’s more like, "glamping with a Lion King twist and a hearty dose of British charm." BUT. And it's a big BUT. It's fun. It's unique. And the location is simply stunning.

My Honest Recommendation: Yes, you should go!

My Personal Anecdote:

One evening, I sat on the terrace, a glass of wine in hand, watching the sunset over the Welsh countryside. It was breathtaking. A genuinely magical moment. So even if the hotel is not perfect, the memories are.


Roar-some UK Safari Adventure: Lion King Themed Tent - The Takeaway!

  • For: Families, anyone who loves the Lion King, people who want a unique experience, those who appreciate breathtaking scenery and don't mind a touch of "rustic charm."
  • Maybe Skip if: You're a stickler for flawless service, you hate thematics, or you're after a minimalist getaway.

Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into my Lion King Safari Tent escapade in Carew, UK. Forget sleek itineraries - this is a ramblin' log of chaos, wonder, and the inevitable questionable decisions that make a trip memorable. Consider this your pre-emptive apology for the mental mess that's about to unfold.

Day 1: Arrival (and the Glorious Failure of Glam-Camping Purity)

  • 14:00 - Arrival! (Or, the Great Tent-Raising Fiasco): The drive down was, in itself, a lesson in patience. GPS routed us through what felt like three counties worth of single-track roads. Finally, we arrived at the "Lion King Safari Tents," already picturing myself sipping a G&T, draped in a leopard-print blanket, gazing at the sunset. HA! The "glam" bit ended pretty quickly. The first challenge? Finding the actual tent village. Turns out, "Safari Tents" doesn't mean easy access. It involved a slightly terrifying descent down a very muddy cart track.

  • 14:30 - Tent Inspection & Panic: Okay, the tent itself. HUGE. Like, “could probably house a small family of rhinos” huge. First impression? Honestly? Underwhelming. The "luxury" of the pictures was a bit…optimistic. The bed looked comfy enough, thankfully, but the promised "stunning views" were somewhat obscured by a rather aggressively overgrown hedge. I swear I saw a wasp give me the stink eye. My inner monologue started screaming "OMG, where's the wifi?!"

  • 15:00 - The Great Bedding Conundrum: So, the tent is up, but the bedding situation is…a drama. The duvet! I could not figure out how to fit it into the cover, ended up wrestling with it like a rabid badger. I broke a sweat, which does not feel safari-chic. Finally, after 20 minutes of pure, unadulterated frustration, I surrendered and decided I'd just sleep on top of everything, like a king…a very sweaty, slightly defeated king.

  • 16:00 - Time to Hunt for Firewood (And a Drink!). Okay, so the brochure had a fire pit. Fire pit equals s'mores, right? Right! Except, where the heck do I find firewood? Armed with my best "I'm a competent adult" face, I ventured out into the wilderness (aka a slightly overgrown field) to forage. I felt like Bear Grylls. Or, at least, a very inept version. Eventually, a kind chap from another tent pointed me in the direction of a woodpile. Victory! I nearly tripped over a rogue sheep while carrying my precious wood. Also, the G&T was absolutely necessary after that ordeal.

  • 18:00 - The Sunset (Almost) Save the Day: The weather was cooperating, thank god. The sunset did actually look quite magical, peeking over the hedges. The thought kept popping in my head that it was going to be worth it. We sat by the fire, got a fire going, toasted marshmallows, and watched the stars pop out. Actually, the world felt silent. And the peace was great.

  • 19:00 - Dinner Disaster & Early Nights: The communal kitchen… Well, its a charming mess. I realized with dread that this was where I'd be cooking all weekend. The BBQ was ancient, and the oven was a relic from the 1970s. Dinner was supposed to be a sophisticated pasta salad I'd prepped. It turned into a slightly burned, over-salted abomination. I gave up and ate the store-bought brownies like the hungry person I am. Crawled into bed before 9 PM, defeated but strangely content.

Day 2: Exploring & Epiphanies (and the Sheep Who Judged Me)

  • 08:00 - Waking up. The sun! : The sun came up! The noises had already begun. Bird noises, the sounds of the woods. I actually felt amazing. I got ready for the day.

  • 09:00 - Breakfast (The Redemption of the Toast): The breakfast situation was, thankfully, far less stressful than dinner. Proper breakfast. Simple, but perfect.

  • 10:00 - Carew Castle & Tidal Mill: Okay, this was legitimately cool. Carew Castle is this incredibly well-preserved medieval castle. It was amazing. I really loved going inside. It was so cool to imagine the history! The Tidal Mill was great too. The amount of innovation and human ingenuity that went into it was humbling.

  • 12:00 - A Picnic From Hell (and the Sheep That Mocked Me): Remember those carefully curated sandwiches I'd made? Yeah, well, they didn't survive the journey to the picnic spot. Somewhere between the car and the "stunning view" picnic table, they got thoroughly squashed. And then I saw a sheep! She definitely looked me, and I swear, she smirked. I swear I heard a "baa" that sounded suspiciously like a laugh.

  • 14:00 - Nature Walk and the Great Mud Incident: Decided to "embrace nature" and go on a long walk. This, of course, meant another opportunity to fall. Or rather, sink. I managed to step directly into a deep, squelchy mud puddle. My shoes were gone, covered in mud. My socks were ruined. My dignity? Briefly MIA. I just stood there in the middle of the muddy mess, starting to laugh, then I kept laughing until I was just crying.

  • 17:00: The Re-Evalutation of Reality. As the sun sets on day 2, I'm sitting here, wrapped in a blanket, still slightly damp, and wondering what the heck I thought I was doing. I had moments of sheer frustration. Moments of awe. Moments I'm pretty sure I'll never forget (mostly because of the mud).

  • 19:00 - The Fire Pit Again: Tonight, I'm not going to plan. I'm just going to eat some reheated pasta (maybe) and watch the stars. I'm going to embrace the mess, the imperfections, the wasps and the sheep. Honestly? I think I'm going to love it.

Day 3: Departure (and a Promise to Never Wear White to a Safari Tent Again)

  • 07:00 - Packing & The Great Tent-Takedown: I was surprisingly efficient. I felt like a pro. Even managed to fit all the bedding back into the bag. I felt a little bit sad; I was excited to go home, but I started to miss everything.

  • 08:00 - Breakfast. Goodbye, sweet, sweet, camp: My final coffee, my last view of the tent. The end.

  • 09:00 - Departure: On the drive home, I just grinned to myself. It wasn't perfect, it wasn't "glam," but it was an adventure. It was something real. Would I go back? Honestly? Probably. With a better pair of shoes and a healthy dose of "don't take yourself too seriously" attitude. And, definitely, no white clothes.

Roar-some UK Safari Adventure: Lion King Themed Tent in Carew! Your Burning Questions Answered (And My Completely Unfiltered Thoughts…)

What *IS* this thing actually? Is it a safari, a camp, a themed room, or what?!

Okay, picture this: you roll up to a campsite, but instead of your usual dodgy tent (mine always leaks, no matter what!), you’re greeted by... a HUGE Lion King-themed tent. Think massive canvas, decorated inside with all the Hakuna Matata vibes, and, oh yeah, the *potential* to see actual wildlife. The website (they *always* look better on the website!) calls it a "safari adventure." Realistically? It's glamping with a serious theme, and a bit of luck thrown in regarding the "safari" part. We saw a few deer, which was nice, but let's not kid ourselves, it wasn't exactly the Serengeti. Still, the sheer *scale* of the tent? Jaw-dropping. You’ll feel utterly ridiculous, in the best way possible.

So, about the "Lion King" theme... is it actually good? Like, not just a cheap plastic cutout of Simba?

Alright, brace yourself, I'm about to get *real* picky here. The theme… it's pretty decent! There were definitely some cheesy touches – a plastic Simba toy on the coffee table, which I almost tripped over. But! The overall feel was genuinely immersive. Think earthy tones, tribal patterns on the rugs, and some really clever lighting that made it feel… well, like you were actually inside a Pride Rock cave at sunset. My inner child, who still cries during "Circle of Life," was squealing with delight. My husband, on the other hand, kept grumbling about “adulting too hard” and wanting a proper pint. (He's not a Disney person, bless him.) The biggest win? The bedsheets! They were emblazoned with Simba and Nala, and I swear, I slept like a log. (Until the dawn chorus, more on that later…)

What's the deal with the "safari" part? What animals can you actually see?

Okay, the "safari" element? This is where you need to adjust your expectations. The website boasts about wildlife, and yeah, there are deer. Lots of deer! We saw them grazing in the field, looking all majestic and… well, deer-like. We also *heard* some birds. Lots of birds. The dawn chorus was unbelievable. I actually *loved* it. My husband, however, thinks it was a personal attack on his sleep schedule. He was muttering things about "revenge" and "silent air rifles". (He's *joking*, of course... mostly.) But, let's be honest - it’s not quite the same as seeing lions and elephants. Don’t get me wrong, the setting is beautiful, and the feeling of being surrounded by nature is amazing, but prepare to be wowed by the countryside rather than exotic animals.

What about the facilities? Are we talking camping toilets or actual, flushable toilets?

Oh, thank God, real toilets! No port-a-loos of doom. There's a proper shower and toilet block, which is a *huge* win in my book. Clean, functional, and honestly, a little bit luxurious compared to some camping experiences I’ve had. The glamping bit is serious, so don't expect to rough it TOO much.

What is the food like? Is it included? Do I have to cook? (I hate cooking.)

Right, food. This is where things get *slightly* complicated. Food isn't included in the basic package, but there are options. You can self-cater, which means bringing your own supplies (and potentially spending hours slaving over a camp stove... no thanks!). There were also some on-site options for ordering food, but it’s a limited menu. We opted for the "luxury" package, which included a hamper. BIG mistake. The hamper was mostly glorified crisps and cheap wine. I was *so* disappointed. We ended up eating a lot of takeaway pizza. Which, in hindsight, was probably the best decision we made. Tip: Pack your own snacks! Don’t underestimate the POWER of biscuits.

Is it worth the money? Is it a rip-off?

This is the big one, isn't it? Honestly? It's a tricky one. It's not *cheap*. Glamping is always a bit of a premium. You're paying for the experience, the novelty, and the convenience. Considering the size of the tent and the unique factor? I’d say it's worth it *if* you’re prepared to embrace the whole thing. If you go in expecting a flawless safari experience (and Michelin-starred meals), you'll be disappointed. If you're looking for a fun, quirky getaway with a serious dose of "wow" factor and don't mind a bit of imperfection, then yes, it’s worth it. Would I go again? Absolutely. Would my husband? Probably not, unless I promise him a really good pub afterwards.

What's the weather like in Carew? Should I pack for all seasons?

Ah, the British weather. A glorious enigma. Yes. Pack for all seasons. Seriously. We went in July, and it was… well, it was a taste of every season. One minute it was glorious sunshine, the next it was torrential rain, and then suddenly, the wind picked up like the Devil himself had decided to hold his own personal air-show. Waterproofs are essential. Warm layers are essential. Sunscreen is… well, you might need it for five minutes. Be prepared for anything. I can’t stress this enough. Pack more than you think you need. Seriously. I learned the hard way.

Anything else I should know? Any hidden gems or things to avoid?

Okay, listen up! Hidden gem: The Carew Castle is nearby, and it's absolutely worth a visit. It's stunning. Things to avoid: The "luxury" food hamper. For the love of all that is good, just don't. Bring good walking boots (those fields get muddy!). Embrace the chaos. And most importantly, try to have *fun*. It’s not a perfect holiday, there will be hiccups. Just embrace the little imperfections, have a laugh, and enjoy the experience. You're on a freakin' *Lion King* themed adventure! Now go forth, and Hakuna Matata!

Okay, you mentioned the dawn chorus… what was that *actually* like?!

Oh… the dawn chorus. Right. SoScenic Stays
