  • Peaceful campsite 15 minutes' walk from the Pembrokeshire Coast Path
  • Marloes Sands 15 minutes' drive; Manorbier 40 minutes
  • Centred around two large wildlife ponds; well-behaved dogs welcome
Want to be within walking distance of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path? Foxglove Campsite in the small hamlet of Talbenny is a peaceful family-friendly spot roughly a mile from the coast, with spacious pitches centred around two wildlife-rich nature ponds. Creatures like mallards, moorhens and a kingfisher are regular visitors here, alongside dragonflies and at least one otter. The site has been designed to feel as wild as possible without compromising on comfort, allowing guests to be immersed in nature after busy days exploring the nearby coast. The site is accessed via a stone track, with shared toilet and shower facilities and a space for washing up. There are also numerous communal seating areas, including one that's sheltered for rainy days. Firepits are available to hire and logs can be bought on site. Dogs are very welcome at Foxglove Campsite, but please make sure that they're kept on leads. As this is a family-friendly campsite, big groups and large parties should look elsewhere for everyone's benefit. Campfires are allowed in the designated areas, but if you're having a sing-song or stargazing session please wind things down by 10pm when quiet hours come into effect.

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked: Fantastic atmosphere, the host was great and brilliant facilities, clean and tidy. Great location very peaceful. Loved it

Disliked: Only thing is need a better sign at the main gate, also a campsite map would be good either on the second gate or on the toilets or big shed so people have a clear view of where they can go/need to go. Otherwise fantastic

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked: Follow the directions to the site on Pitchup – on left immediately before a 4-way junction! Can be a bit concealed at twilight but once through the gate and past the slightly ‘direct’ warning signs from the neighbouring farmer about Sheep and Dogs you will enter the site proper. Absolutely a hidden gem – just 2 km from the beautiful fishing village of Little Haven, close to the Coast Path but set-back and sheltered by mature hedge rows and naturally broken into a number of different spots to pitch. The owner is completely unique, friendly and has totally mastered the art of great ‘great customer service’. Nothing ever seems too much trouble, even helping us to pitch our tent as we arrived after dark – due to traffic. Firepits are available (£5) as is wood (£5) The site…. this is no mowed field…… instead you will have choice of a central paddock close to the washing/toilets/showers or, to the left a smaller paddock is also available – though a slight slope at the top end. Optionally there are other more private spots available near to the central pond. In addition to regular camping there is shepherds hut and bell tent available in their own space for a great glamping experience with separate kitchens, fire pits and outside space . The Bell Tent has an adjoining shower and toilet. Facilities have been described on this site as basic….. but, they are cleaned regularly and spotless - the showers are piping hot with great water pressure ! Loved it - as did the teenage children

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch

Liked: Amazing host who went above and beyond ! We were greeted with warmth and Andrew pointed us in the right direction of stunning beaches and local “must see’s”. I can’t wait to come back! Would highly recommend. It would be hard not to enjoy this site, its host and the surrounding areas. 10 points for a lovely warm shower :)

Cwtch Corner bell tent (no pets, private bathroom amenities)

Liked: Andrew's friendly and helpful personality Quietness of the site and the space around the bell tent to have additional tents Bell tent was well equipped and true to description in terms of cooking equipment and amenities provided Outdoor shower was nice and warm and a good way to start the day!

Disliked: Would be easier to find with clearer signage from the road and once onsite, although Andrew did send a helpful video showing the way to the bell tent.
