  • Well-maintained family-run Pembrokeshire site six miles from Pembroke
  • Freshwater West beach five minutes' drive; Barafundle Bay 20 minutes
  • Sea views on one side, with National Trust estate on the other
If you’re heading to Pembrokeshire to explore its famously gorgeous coastline, you’ll probably be particularly delighted to hear you can see the sea from right there on your pitch when you stay at Newton Farm Campsite. This spacious and well-maintained farm site is about six miles west of Pembroke, just off the road heading down towards the fabulous Freshwater West beach (five minutes’ drive away). With the sea views on one side (especially stunning at sunset…) and a backdrop of the National Trust’s Gupton Estate on the other, it’s a pretty place to hang out at all hours of the day. And by night too… as this is a dark-skies area where you should get some good stargazing on clear nights. The grass pitches here are part of a family-run site that’s got a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and access to all the essential facilities including toilets, showers, a washing-up area and chemical disposal. It’s a laidback place where you’ll be allowed to bring along dogs and barbecues or light campfires as long as you’re careful with them all. This site makes a great base for getting out and about to explore this part of Pembrokeshire – several fabulous sights, including Barafundle Bay, the Bosherston lily ponds and the Green Bridge of Wales, are within 20 minutes’ drive, and there are some great family attractions around such as Oakwood Theme Park and Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo. You might also like to note that the ferry port for services to Rosslare is only about 10 minutes’ drive, making this a handy spot to consider for a stay before or after you cross the Irish Sea.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: We love campsites where we can choose our pitch, so we chose a spot next to the field overlooking Freshwater West. The scenery was beautiful, and there were plenty of level-pitch opportunities for tents. The site is near Freshwater West Beach and Angle West Bay, both beautiful with plenty of coves (Angle) and dunes (Freshwater) for play and exploration. Pembroke is only a 20-minute drive away, which is also where the supermarkets are if you need to restock (we didn't come across any local shops). The field is big enough for kids and dogs to go crazy. There is no play area, so bring a ball and other outdoor toys. The site owner is easy to reach by phone if you have any questions. I'm sure we'll come again.

Disliked: The only point for improvement we encountered during our trip was the shower facilities. Flaking paint went on our feet, which isn't ideal when you're trying to get clean. The coin machines in both ladies' showers were full – I don't think they'd been emptied in a while – so I had to pack up and head to the men's. This was not a big deal as the men's showers were unoccupied at the time, and the men's coin machine was taking coins so we could all shower, but it was an inconvenience.

Non-electric grass touring caravan pitch

Liked: Rugged and simple site. Good rural location with nice countryside views. Very pleasant service.

Disliked: Toilets limited, and both they and showers are very basic. This was fine for us but wont suit everyone. We were there in wet and windy weather - and the site is a bit exposed. The view from one side of the site is a busy and brightly lit refinery!

Non-electric grass touring caravan pitch

Liked: Roland, who runs the site, was really helpful and friendly. We could park wherever we wanted and found a really flat spot overlooking the sea. We drove a couple of minutes down to the beach and it was breath taking. Toilets and pot washing facilities were standard - didn’t use showers so can’t comment, but apparently you need a 50p coin to operate.

Local attractions

The nearest beach, Freshwater West (five minutes’ drive) is one of Pembrokeshire’s finest – it’s a long sandy stretch that’s popular with surfers and surf schools, as well as Harry Potter fans, who come along to see Dobby the House Elf’s grave in the sand dunes. Elsewhere along the coast, lots more lovely beaches await – the likes of Broad Haven South, Barafundle Bay (both 20 minutes) and Tenby (half an hour). Walks on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path are highly recommended too, taking you to places like the Green Bridge of Wales rock arch, St Govan’s Chapel and Angle (which has a particularly good pub and café). For family outings, you may like to plan days at places like Pembroke Castle (10 minutes), The Dinosaur Park (20 minutes), Heatherton World of Activities (20 minutes), Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (25 minutes), Oakwood Theme Park (half an hour), Wild Lakes Wales (half an hour)…
