General view

  • Spacious family-run park with sea views over St Brides Bay
  • A mile from Newgale beach for surfing and other watersports
  • Farm shop on site; pub 20 minutes' walk away
Surfing, hiking, horse riding, coasteering, wildlife spotting… if it’s fresh-air frolics you’re after, the Pembrokeshire coast is a pretty fab pick. And if sea-view sunsets would top that all off nicely, you’ll settle in well at Rainbolts Hill Farm. From this family-run four-acre site there are stunning views out over St Brides Bay, best taken in at the end of the day as the sun dips below the horizon… Naturally, that’s a fab time to crack open a beer and sizzle a few sausages too; barbies are welcome here and there's a farm shop on site selling top-notch local food and craft beers. For more supplies, decent-sized supermarkets are 10 minutes' drive away in Haverfordwest. Welsh weather not all that warm? Cosy up at the cracking country pub 15 minutes' stroll away. Having seen the sea from the site, you’ll no doubt want to take a closer look, and this is a fine location to do so. A 20-minute ramble will take you to the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, and the beaches of Newgale, Nolton Haven and Broad Haven are all under 15 minutes away by car. Turn and face inland and you’ll be looking at the Preseli Hills, also a fine place for a scenic hike. However you’ve spent your day, back at base you’ll be staying at a peaceful place (no parties, please) with heaps of space to chill out, as well as top-notch heated bathroom blocks (ladies' and gents', with toilets and showers) to keep everyone spruced up.

James W. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: Friendly staff, clean and warm toilets and really good views. Dog friendly. Decent shop.

Disliked: I wish this site and other British campsites had more trees/bushes on them and perhaps a touch more landscaping like they tend to have in France, Germany, Holland and other countries I have stayed in. Trees and bushes would beautify the place, give more habitat for nature and might help to reduce the howling wind on the top site.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: Shop Facilities Hosts

Disliked: Noisy main road (not the campsite's fault) Slightly further away from coastal walks than we thought - 45 minutes before you hit the coastal path - but that's down to our research.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: The site was very welcoming, it was mainly flat, staff amazing

Disliked: I did not like the idea of paying for the showers as they were not cleaned on a regular basis and there was a lack of ventalation in the shower/toilet block therefore you could not dry completeely after a shower. Flet as iof it needed some kind of " hardcore path/road" to walk on to move around the site. The WIFI would drop in and out.

Georgia S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: The campsite was really clean and the toilets were always well stocked with toilet paper, soap etc. However, there were only 2 toilets and 2 shower cubicles for females and the same for males. This was okay for our stay but might be an issue if it was busier. Showers were nice and hot though. The customer service was great and every person who worked on the campsite was super friendly and helpful. The shop was also very well stocked and reasonably priced. The beach nearby is lovely, a short drive away but not too far.

Disliked: The campsite was next to a busy main road which did mean we were awoken very early in the morning by vehicles driving past which wasn’t ideal. The campsite itself was very quiet though minus the road. The camp was quite windy as well, with little cover as it is on a hill and no trees to stop the wind around the site.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: A great quiet pitch with plenty of space for children to play without bothering any other campers. Close to lovely beaches. Was our first ever family camp and really enjoyed. Toilets and showers were clean.

Disliked: Could have done with a couple more toilets. There was often a queue in the ladies (especially in the morning) but they were clean and warm shower so not too much of an issue.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Lots of space for children to play on field, lovely friendly & helpful staff, well stocked shop on site with great prices, clean facilities, lovely views & 3 minute drive from beach.

Disliked: Not a dislike, but could benefit from a little park for the kids! Wifi very patchy, but wasn’t a problem for us as we were so busy.

Local attractions

Watersports on your Welsh wishlist? Bring your surfboard to Newgale beach to join the regulars, or hire kit if you’re travelling light. Those who haven’t quite mastered the art yet can sign up for surf and kitesurfing lessons here, or join sea kayaking, paddleboarding or coasteering tours. If you're after something a little more leisurely, the family-friendly sands of Broad Haven beach are about 15 minutes’ drive away, or you could don your boots for a ramble along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. Pony rides, lessons and beach or country canters are all on the menu at the local riding stables, 10 minutes away. St Davids, 20 minutes away, is worth a jaunt too: the UK’s smallest city is famed for its cathedral and independent shops, and it’s also the meeting point for boat trips to spot wildlife around Skomer and Ramsey islands (bring the binoculars and keep the peepers peeled for puffins and dolphins).
