  • Peaceful Pembrokeshire site in a sheltered wooded valley
  • A 15-minute drive from the surf beach at Newgale and 20 from St Davids
  • Scenic walks through the surrounding meadows and along the stream
Coast and countryside are equally fab in pretty Pembrokeshire, so it makes sense to pitch up somewhere with easy access to a bit of both. Bag a berth at Brandy Brook Caravan and Camping Site for a splendid spot to start outings of either variety. Surfers and sea-view ramblers will want to note that the nearest beach is Newgale, 15 minutes away by car and well known for its wave-riding potential (and its surf schools, if you’ve not quite fulfilled your wave-riding potential…). It’s also here that you can pick up the Pembrokeshire Coast Path if you'd prefer to keep your feet firmly on dry land. Being a little way from the sea means that this site keeps its calm even when chill winds blow in from the west: it’s in a sheltered spot at the bottom of a wooded valley, with the sort of secluded vibe that comes from being surrounded by peaceful meadows. A trout stream runs a little way away, and if you tread very carefully you may just spot otters as you wander along the banks… That shelter comes in most handy if you’re planning an outdoor feast (picnic benches are provided, and supplies can be sourced in St Davids or Haverfordwest, both 20 minutes’ drive away). As befits such a serene spot, facilities have been kept on the simple side, but the toilet block has been kitted out with showers and handy additions including razor points and a hairdryer for when you want to spruce up. These surrounds are mighty tempting for four-legged guests too, so dogs are welcome to join you on your break (but on leads at all times, please, in order to leave the wildlife in peace).

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Lovely rural setting in a stunning valley, surrounded by nature. Great base for exploring Pembrokeshire. Lovely owner, couldn't do enough for guests. Great pic-n-mix for the kids (and adults!) Good grass for pitches. Facilities could do with a touch up, but showers clean and lovely hot water. Really enjoyed our stay :-)

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful secluded campsite with large pitches, the host was lovely, friendly and helpful. It had the basics with toilet block and washing up sink and a drinking water tap in the field, the shower block was over in the main part which to be honest we didn't venture too as were only there a few days! It was lovely listening to the Brook from our tent. The beaches were only a short drive away along with plenty off other places to explore.We will definitely be going back.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: It was perfect for what we wanted. A peaceful, sheltered campsite off the beaten track. Lovely open field with plenty of space . Perfectly adequate facilities, although had the site been busier these may struggle to cope. A nice idea to have picnic tables dotted around the camping fields. Couldn't fault it.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Hidden Gem tucked away in a small wooded valley - We have been camping for over 15 years and wish we had found this years ago. If you have realistic expectations about camping, you will not be disappointed. This is the best value for money campsite we have stayed on. The facilities are basic but always very clean and there was always plenty of hot water for a shower any time of the day. The pitches are level and providing the pitch is free you can camp where you choose. The owners are friendly, genuine and helpfulhelp. We had a great stay at the start of August 2022 and will be returning for another stay..

Local attractions

The seaside around here isn’t all surfing and strolling – you can also saddle up to canter through the waves in Nolton (15 minutes’ drive) or up the adrenaline levels with days of sea kayaking or coasteering from St Davids (20 minutes). Boat trips to Skomer and Ramsey islands leave from here, too, in search of seals, dolphins, puffins and other sea-dwelling wildlife. St Davids is a splendid place to visit if you’d like to stick to dry land too – the cathedral and Bishop’s Palace are must-sees, and there are plenty of places to pick up picnic bits if you fancy a stroll out to sea-view St Non’s Chapel (20 minutes) or along the coast to the pretty village of Solva (an hour or so). If the nippers demand a little more excitement in their lives, it’s around 40 minutes' drive to popular Pembrokeshire attractions including Oakwood Theme Park, Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo and the Blue Lagoon waterpark.
