  • 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

Great little campsite! Friendly staff, top-notch facilities, and a cracker location for hitting the Pembrokeshire coast and Skomer Island. Food van and shop are a bonus. Perfect for a chill escape, though it's a bit out of the way for supplies.

Liked Small, friendly site. Located in a lovely village. Food available on site from a small food wagon, but pub and pizzeria close by.
Beautiful walk from the site to the beach and around the headland. Facilities are good and clean. Lovely dark sky at night for star gazing.

Liked Quiet pitch, amenities ok.

Disliked Made to feel a little unwelcome. Being reminded at 10.25 that check out is at 11am as someone else is being allocated our pitch.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feed back. Nothing personal. The wardens go round every morning around this time to remind those leaving that check out time, as per your PitchUp booking confirmation email, is 11am. That gives us opportunity to mow pitches etc., before our next guests arrive.

Friendly little site with helpful staff.…

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…
