Bell tent
Liked A beautiful place with an incredible ethos underlying the whole site. The bell tent we stayed in was comfortable and very cosy. Compost loos were well maintained and the showers were great.
Neil and Dina were warm, welcoming. They were also generous with their time, explaining the restoration project of the land with genuine passion.

An inspiring site with a great welcome and beautiful facilities
Bell tent
Liked I love everything about this little site. The bell tent was very comfortable and in a beautiful peaceful setting. There is a very well equipped outdoor kitchen and the bathroom is clean and fresh. If you want to learn about permaculture this place will inspire you, they run quality courses and workshops. The owners are very welcoming, will do anything they can to help you enjoy your stay but also respect your privacy. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Excellent site and enviroment. Clean facilities and friendly people!
Bell tent
Liked It was a fantastic place to stay for three nights. Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome and were given a tour of the premises. The tent was clean and equipped with a heater that we could use. Outside, there was a seating area, and a small kitchenette with a stove was also available. We had booked the comfort tent, of course. The people were incredibly friendly and curious about our UK road trip. For a small fee, we could get eggs from their own chickens. The showers and toilets were clean. The compost toilet took some getting used to, but it wasn't a problem for us. We were approximately a 50-minute drive away from Skomer Island. Visiting it is highly recommended! Just make sure to book the boat tickets in advance, as they sell out quickly. Patch of the Planet camping site comes highly recommended!
Disliked We did, however, have a few points of concern regarding our stay. The mattress was in need of replacement as it had a sag in the middle, making it uncomfortable to lie on during the night (you would roll into the sag). When you're traveling with food items, having a small refrigerator would be helpful. This refrigerator could be placed near the area with the eggs or inside the accommodation. This way, the food would remain fresh during our travels. Other than that, the amenities were great!

Excellent site with eco-facilities, friendly family team and quiet
Bell tent
Liked quiet, individualised permaculture-focus; fresh eggs, fresh air. Local knowledge and dedication of the hosts
Disliked need to be fit and willing to walk a lot - that's ok, but suggest facilities are closer together

Wonderful campsite and hosts.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Kind, welcoming hosts. Really accommodating, especially as we had a baby and toddler with us. Clean campsite, good facilities, lovely views plus very peaceful. Not far from the beach either.

Idyllic campsite in beautiful surroundings.
Bell tent
Liked Where to start? This is our second stay at Patch of the Planet in the 'Comfrey' glamping bell tent. Dina, Neil, Kitty and Bramble (family dog) are fantastic hosts.
The site is the most tranquil campsite I've ever visited, surrounded by fields with beautiful views across Pembrokeshire.
The ecological setup is commendable with compost toilets and comprehensive recycling.
We had eggs, freshly laid by their chickens, each morning for breakfast.
We went to Broadhaven beach, which is perfect for paddle boarding. Went to the secret fresh water pool for a swim, idyllic doesn't even begin to describe it. Had a great pint at Tafarn Sinc and climbed Mynydd Carningli (angel mountain), with spectacular views from the coast to the dales. All are within easy striking distance.
Disliked We didn't have time to visit the watersports and activity centre at Llys y Fran county park.
And leaving, we definitely disliked leaving!

One of the best campsites we've been to
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked The site is beautiful and quiet, with well spaced pitches and lots of greenery. The owners were incredibly friendly, welcoming and had loads of useful information about the area. Facilities were spotless. We loved the environmentally friendly ethos.
Perfectly placed to explore all of Pembrokeshire as the site is roughly an equal distance from each coast.
