  • Peaceful Pembrokeshire Coast National Park campsite and wildlife haven
  • Newport Sands and Castell Henllys Iron Age Village 10 minutes’ drive
  • Spacious grass pitches with simple facilities in a dark skies park
Craving peace and quiet in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park? You might care to stay a while among the flower meadows of Nevern Camping, a nearly wild camping site 10 minutes’ drive from the beaches of Newport. Why nearly wild? Well, you get a back-to-nature adventure under canvas, but there are still a few handy facilities like showers, a washing-up station and phone charging points. Set in 12.5 acres of natural pasture sheltered by hedgerows and mature trees, this rural retreat has just a few spacious pitches (big enough for bell tents), with plenty of room between them to ensure privacy. As the site is well away from busy roads and towns, red kites, buzzards and swallows are regular visitors, while foxes, owls and badgers can often be spotted at night. This wildlife haven has virtually no light pollution after dark, so on cloudless nights you can snuggle up around your exclusive-use firepit and get down to some serious stargazing. The camping fields are car-free zones, with access on foot only (no more than a couple of minutes’ walk), with wheelbarrows provided to transport all your gear to and from the pitches.

Primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked: This is our second greener campsite that we have stayed at and we really like the concept… very natural field but with low key but very clean facilities. Glamping I suppose

Disliked: Grass pitches little tricky to get off when wet…. But to be expected when almost wild camping

Recommend to friends Visit again

Excellent site, peaceful chance to see butterflies and amazing skies.

Primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked: We stopped here for a night on our tour of Pembrokeshire and so glad we did. A beautiful tranquil campsite with great facilities. So many stars! Walked down to the village pub and had a lovely meal. We managed to fit in a short walk on the coastal path from Ceibwr Bay- incredible rock formations, amazing wild flowers and saw some Choughs and a Puffin. We’ll be back!

Local attractions

First stop the beach? Backed by dunes, Newport Sands (10 minutes’ drive) sits on the River Nevern estuary and suits all comers, from surfers to rockpoolers and swimmers. Poppit Sands (20 minutes) is popular for power kiting, kite boarding and sand yachting, while Ceibwr Bay, Pwllgwaelod and Aberfforest (all 15 minutes) are other likely candidates for fun times on the sand. There are walks of all lengths and difficulty in Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, including dramatic coastline hikes on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, and if you’re looking for something a bit more adrenaline-inducing, have a go at coasteering or try cliff-climbing on ropes at Carreg-y-Barcud (45 minutes). If that just sounds too scary, then potter down to the castle ruins in the pretty village of Nevern (20 minutes’ walk), and stop off for a pint at the pub. Have a look inside the neolithic burial chamber at Pentre Ifan (10 minutes’ drive), and if that piques your interest, check out the reconstructed Iron Age round houses at Castell Henllys Iron Age Village (also 10 minutes).
