  • Small, peaceful family-run site just outside Marloes village
  • Among spectacular scenery a hike or short drive from the beach
  • Two and a half miles from boat trips to Skomer Island
Head way out west, almost to the far end of a Pembrokeshire peninsula and a peaceful break at Foxdale Campsite, on the edge of the village of Marloes: this small site 25 minutes’ drive west of Haverfordwest is surrounded by splendid scenery, and the pitches are fully sheltered from the breezes that occasionally buffet the nearby coast. There are some fab hikes around here (particularly for those who choose to treat their boots to a jaunt on the always-scenic Pembrokeshire Coast Path), and some equally excellent options for other ways to see this cracking stretch of coastline: might you be tempted by wildlife-watching boat trips, windsurfing days, surf lessons or galloping through the shallows on horseback perhaps? Such levels of activity aren’t compulsory, of course (cue sigh of relief from folks seeking flop time). The marvellous Marloes Sands is a mere mile and a half away for easy beach days – the place is so pretty it’s even earned itself a role in a Hollywood film (part of Snow White and the Huntsman was filmed here in 2011). To feed your outings (whatever they may be), settle in for meals at the pub a short stroll away. Takeaways and breakfasts are available from the on-site food trailer at weekends and during busy days during the summer (please call the site to check the availability before your stay). Essential amenities are all sorted on site: basic showers and toilets, laundry facilities, a fridge-freezer and a washing-up area. The village also has a pizza takeaway, a short walk away. The nearest shop is at a café in Dale, 10 minutes' drive away.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, quiet campsite with friendly staff and clean facilities, including new showers. Pitches are spacious and level, and the site is ideally located for coastal walks and visiting Skomer Island. A food van offers convenient meals. Some guests noted a lack of sufficient facilities during busy periods and limited nearby shops.

Liked Nice well maintained site in a quiet area.

Disliked No enough toilets and showers for the number of people staying on the site.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments, and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. We are engaged in a process of improvements which inevitably takes time. Guidelines for a basic campsite such as ours suggests 1 toilet and 1 shower per 10 pitches. We currently have 7 and 3 respectively, for 26 pitches, but hope to further improve that ratio over time.

Well-maintained site with big, flat pitches and lovely staff.

Liked Brilliant site. A lovely peaceful site where the owners, wardens and catering team- Top 1 food, are excellent and couldn’t do enough for you.
The village is nice and a short walk from some lovely walking and beautiful sea views. A trip to see the puffins topped it all off, with a lift to catch the ferry an added bonus. The dogs had a great time at Marloes Sands worth the walk. I would highly recommend Foxdale and would certainly return.

Local attractions

The local beach – an energetic walk or a very short drive away – is clean, uncrowded Marloes Sands, a huge expanse of beach at low tide, with rockpools and unusual cliff formations for added drama. Turn your sights in the opposite direction to hit the north Pembrokeshire coast with a 10-minute drive for the views over St Bride’s Bay. Hop on a boat at nearby Martin’s Haven for the 15-minute crossing to Skokholm and Skomer islands, bliss for birdwatchers: as well as cormorants, razorbills and many other sea birds, between April and August the islands play home to a sizeable puffin colony. Skomer is also a good place to see grey seals, although you can often spot them from dry land as well, during the short walk around the cliff tops at Martin’s Haven Deer Park (no deer, but spectacular wildflowers and sea views). For active types, there are many more fab walks along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, as well as golf, sailing, windsurfing, sea fishing and pony trekking nearby. Also within a 45-minute drive are the teeny city of St Davids, family-friendly days at Oakwood Theme Park and Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo… plus Pembrokeshire beaches galore of course…
