What customers say
This small, peaceful campsite offers breathtaking views and direct access to the coastal path. Guests frequently praise the friendly, helpful owners and the clean toilet facilities, with some highlighting a unique shower concept. Local pubs and villages are easily accessible. While many enjoyed the quiet, "no-frills" experience, a few guests noted issues with the toilet facilities, including the presence of urinals and potential insufficiency when busy, as well as a lack of a washing-up area.

Quite, small, simple campsite, excellent location, clean facilities.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Small, no nonsense campsite with direct access to coast path and great walks either side. Nice village with good pub too. Views great but obv its on the coast so be mindful where you pitch as it can get windy! They're currently working on converting one of the barns into a lounge area. I was unlucky enough to have my car break down whilst staying there and they were really kind and relaxed letting me stay in their barns whilst waiting for the RAC. Signposting to site was super, apart from coming onto the actual yard. Seeing as its the last farm on the road and their address is clearly displayed on entrance I should have just paid more attention probably. Good mobile phone reception too, which isn't always the case on the coast.
Disliked Earlier reviews mentioned urinals in both shower and toilet block which are shared gender. That was a bit weird to run the risk of coming across someone. That said, think most men actually used the toilet cubicles so wasn't an issue.

Happy to go there again, hoping to take family there next year.
Electric optional grass touring pitch
Liked The site itself was a fabulous level field with amazing views, near to the coast path.
The pub in the village serves lovely food.
Disliked The shower splashed water all over the floor in the block, with no way to clear it. We spoke to the owner who apologised and said there was a mop outside, but we pointed out that a clean one inside was needed.
There were urinals in both toilet blocks, which as a woman made me feel uncomfortable, although they were clean.

Electric optional grass touring pitch
Liked Absolutely everything, this was a gem of a find, upon meeting the owner & sharing abit of banter we were taken down to the rock, breathtaking views, historic gun shelter, toilet, totally amazing pitch, all the team were super helpful even supplying eggs when we forgot to get any, right next to the coastal path so some lovely walks nearby & local village of St Ishmael 10 mins away

Cheap and very cheerful site, friendly staff, very cute goats!
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Friendly staff, beautiful view, level pitches!
On arrival we were shown about by a really lovely lady who kept us up to date with weather patterns, what wildlife has been seen in the area and what is around locally. The toilets (4 of them) were all kept clean. We loved the water butts that had been made into showers - such a cool concept and lovely hot water! Pitches were level and there's a cut through the fields to get straight onto the coastal path. Its a proper campsite, no frills or fancy canteen at the top of the hill, just a quiet campsite where we felt safe - made it perfect for backpackers like us, we'd definitely stop in again.

Brilliant simple accommodation
Shepherd's hut
Liked Lovely location.
So much to see and do locally. Bring all your catering and cooking needs with you. Ideal for an upgrade on camping in a tent but no frills.
Disliked No washing up area: this could be. Problem if you stay for a while.

From the manager: anonymous really I’ve had a bad review off someone that can’t even tell me who they are . How can I take this seriously. I’m sure you can only use one toilet at a time and I only shower in one at a time . They were clean and tidy . So not really sure what the problem was . There is an Elsan and there is hook ups I’m sure if you paid for one you got one . If I knew who you were I can check you paid for it . Really Pitch up you’re going to let this bring my overall score down . Someone who has not the bottle to leave their name .
