  • Family-friendly farm site on the coast path two miles from Tenby
  • By a secluded cove 15 minutes' walk or 5 minutes' drive from the beach
  • Toilets, hot showers, farm shop, café, living room and hammock
Welsh coast – check. Pembrokeshire and Tenby coasts – check and check. And the isolated little cove of Becks Bay, home to this fab and friendly site on a Pembrokeshire farm – check this one off your Welsh holiday list by booking a stay at Becks Bay Camping. Set just back from the coast, Becks Bay Camping is in green, open and scenic space on part of Bubbleton Farm, a couple of miles from Tenby. It's a relaxed place where campfires and roaming around outdoors are both firmly encouraged, and where kids are welcome to meet and feed the farm animals. As it's Pembrokeshire, famed beaches are all around… It's a 15-minute walk to the sands of Lydstep from here, half an hour's amble – or 10 minutes by car – to Tenby South beach, and 10 minutes' drive to more sands at Saundersfoot, all part of a round dozen spectacular beaches within a 15-minute drive. If your foodie vibes just tingled at the word 'farm', you'll no doubt be pleased to hear there's a farm shop here too. Amble across the fields from the site to reach the Bubbleton Farm shop and café, both laden with fresh local Pembrokeshire produce to have there or take away, indoors or out, while the kids entertain themselves feeding the hens and sheep. Also at your disposal are toilets, two hot showers, a living room and – Pembrokeshire bay bliss – a hammock to laze in amid this stunning setting.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: This place is stunning, and super clean. The quirky features and what the campsite stand for with its eco values are lovely. 40 min walk into Tenby on the costal path so location is spot on. Also was the quietist campsite I have ever stayed on. Will definitely be back!

Disliked: I couldn't fault anything and I am super fussy

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Location is perfect. Right on the Pembrokeshire coast path so you can walk straight from the camp site. Facilities were great and pitches were large. Farm shop is also fab.

Disliked: Not a big issue but you are close to a road and rail line which does have some noise

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Everything was idyllic. The peaceful valley, the set up of toilets and wash stations (all clean with hot water), Tom was incredibly friendly and the farm shop he runs is great (we had the Feast wow!). Location is ideal for coastal path walks across the field, or a longer walk or short drive to Manorbier beach, Tenby on the doorstep, and lots of other great places too. We loved Manorbier Castle & Mill. Definitely recommend.

Disliked: Having to come home!

Local attractions

Beaches, castles, coasteering, climbing, abseiling and of course Pembrokeshire surfing are among the top pursuits around the farm, along with fab family days at the likes of Folly Farm 15 minutes' drive away. The closest beach is the sand and pebble stretch of Lydstep, just over a mile away; hail the bus from the stop a few minutes from the farm if you're not up for the walk or drive. From Lydstep, it's another mile or so to the award-winning Tenby South beach and its mile and a half of sand backed by dunes. A wander around town is recommended too, for shops, restaurants, pubs and the tourist information centre. There's a huge pick of family-friendly attractions in Pembrokeshire if you're here with kids (and if you can prise them away from the beach), starting with the rides, maze and indoor and outdoor amusements of Heatherton World of Activities, under 10 minutes away at Tenby. The country's biggest theme park, Oakwood, and the Bluestone Adventure Centre are both 25 minutes' drive away at Narberth, and quad biking is 10 minutes away at Ritec Valley.
