How to get to Oakwood Park without a car

.Lethal · 2 Jun 2009 at 12:27

As the title says really, I'm thinking of taking my wife there this weekend but we don't have a car at the moment.

When I was younger I use to go by bus but having a quick search on google has not been as easy as I thought.

Has anyone gone recently by coach? What did you do besides drive there?

I live in Cardiff by the way

Thanks

Only way I can think is from cardiff to Whitland and from Whitland to Narberth, I'm 99.9% positive there's buses from Narberth to the park.

Bit of a journey though.

Rent a car for a day, will be cheaper than using trains/taxis

There's tons of car rental places down in Penarth Road area near the new football stadium

i live in cardiff too btw

, but not heading home anytime soon

I'm sure there's buses that go out to Oakwood regularly this time of year as it's peak Grockle Season at the moment

Just hire a car, they are cheaper than you think, I got one for the weekend gone and it only came to £150 for Friday through Monday morning. The price included hiring sat nav and paying for extra insurance.

Best bet is train to Kilgetty and a taxi to Oakwood, i don't remember any buses going to Oakwood rfrom Tenby, Narberth, Saundersfood etc...

I must be lucky living up north, the local car hire agency is £30 a day.

Draw yourself in MS Paint & edit yourself across, you'll be there in no time.

Oh wait.

Yes you are

That was with Hertz including 20% discount with our Ikea family card. I went with them as they're more likely to have a chain of support across Europe as I was driving to Germany. I could have gone with a cheaper local company but if I had a problem I may have had to wait for someone's brother who doesn't speak English to come with a with a trailer from Prague if the car broke down

Didn't spot you weren't in the uk and also that you were taking the car to another country which all adds to the cost.

As for my quote, its from a National chain in the uk although that is weekday prices and it may be more at the weekend. Enterprise .
