  • Secluded site with three coarse fishing lakes in Pembrokeshire
  • A 25-minute drive from Newgale surf beach and 40 minutes from Tenby
  • Folly Farm and Heatherton World of Activities within a half-hour drive
Here’s a fine spot in Pembrokeshire: Ginger Hill is a secluded, family-run site surrounded by woodlands, 15 minutes' drive from Haverfordwest and a relaxing base from which to explore the clifftop walks, castles and beaches of this fab region. If fishing’s your thing, the three coarse fishing lakes should keep you entertained from dawn until sunset; they also attract an abundance of birds and insects if lazing around while species spotting is your thing instead. Campfires and barbecues are welcome on site: listen out for the hoot of barn owls while you sizzle your bangers. Further owl encounters can be had at Picton Castle, a 20-minute drive from the site, whose series of aviaries house 25 different species; the owls come out and fly round the gardens at different times while the house, its 40 acres of woodland and adventure playground should keep everyone flitting about happily for a day. The surfers’ paradise of Newgale beach is 25 minutes away; more watersports and beach walks, sandcastles and sea swims are at Saundersfoot and Tenby, each 40 minutes away. Pubs, eats and supermarkets are close by in Haverfordwest.

Electric hardstanding and grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: It was a really beautiful location in such a lovely little woodland area.

Disliked: The facilities were grim. The shower had a permanent puddle of water in the centre of it. The toilets you could tell were rarely cleaned. Cassette disposal just out in the open. It’s a shame because it really could have been nice

Electric hardstanding and grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The campsite was so peaceful and the owner could not have been more helpful when we got there. We needed an extra extension lead for our electric hook up and he was happy to go straight for it and made sure we was all good. 40 minutes from Tenby and 30 from the Pembrokeshire coast line where we decided to go coasteering. The campsite is in the perfect place for a good holiday with plenty see around you. We also enjoyed the fishing lakes and being able to have a proper campfire was definitely a plus! Would definitely come again.

Electric hardstanding and grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Loved the location and hospitality shown by owner and his, pitch was lovely and big.

Disliked: The toilets were not the best I don’t mind the fact they are gender neutral but they allowed a booking from a large group of men who decided to wash they’re feet in the sinks numerous times per day so even though they were cleaned regular we felt that the large male only booking maybe wasn’t the best idea as they were also driving at speed through the site and had loud music until the early hours of the morning. My 15 year old daughter also felt intimidated by this group and refused to use the toilets alone. Even though the toilet facilities are not the best this will not stop us from returning and we look forward to going here again in the near future.

Electric hardstanding and grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful location, very peaceful and great for exploring the area.

Disliked: Toilets and showers need a good clean. There was no electric in the toilet block for the first 2 days nor soap and paper towels. Also, only 2 or 3 toilets had functioning locks. When we arrived there was nobody available to explain where to pitch up although after finding the owners mobile number we were told to pitch anywhere. There where some fantastic grass pitches but the grass/weeds where so tall and thick it was not viable to put a tent on which was a shame. We ended up on a really big pitch which was dirt and slate and far to big for what we actually needed. When other campers arrived they were asking us where to pitch. The owners son came in the evening and said hello and was very pleasant. I would recommend the site but a bit more attention to detail would have us rating 5 out of 5.

Local attractions

As well as safe beaches, Tenby has a castle and a fort to explore and is also where you catch the boats to Caldey Island. Home to a community of monks who make and sell perfume, chocolate and biscuits in their shop, it’s also full of wildlife and an almost heavenly abundance of quiet walks on the cliffs and empty beaches. If you’ve caught the bug for boat trips, it’s a 40-minute drive to Martin’s Haven for trips to the islands of Skomer, Skokholm and Grassholm, free of humans but teeming with colonies of gannets and puffins. If land-based excitement is more your bag, it’s a five-minute drive to Hangar 5 Trampoline Park and its 10,000 square feet of spring-loaded high larks. It’s all indoors, which makes it a handy venue for those days when the sun’s not playing ball. Bigger thrills are to be found at Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (half an hour), meeting the meerkats, standing nose-to-nose with the giraffes and whizzing round on the waltzers in the funfair. Also around half an hour’s drive away are archery, go-karting, laser clay pigeon shooting and bumper boats, along with mini landrovers and an agility course for canine chums at Heatherton World of Activities.
