  • Woodland pitches a five-minute drive from the Pembrokeshire coast
  • Abermawr Bay 10 minutes’ drive; St Davids Cathedral 25 minutes
  • Private hot-water shower and covered campfire area; washing-up area
Can’t decide between a seaside holiday and hiking in the Welsh hills? No need to agonise at Kitewood Camping, which is set in 60 acres of gorgeous woodland a five-minute drive from the coastal town of Fishguard, right on the edge of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Shaded by tall trees, the large pitches feel completely private. What’s more, you won’t have to queue at the toilet block, since each pitch comes with its own compost toilet and shower (with unlimited hot water – bliss). And if that’s still not enough to persuade you, how about your own covered campfire area complete with firepit (and free firewood), grill and picnic table? That ought to seal the deal, right? Kitewood is not all about woodland solitude, though. If you feel like making new friends, there is a communal area with games (and USB charging points, if you are desperate to check your Twitter feed), as well as a washing-up area set in a timber-frame structure in the woods. How will you spend your time here? Climb up Dinas Mountain (15 minutes’ drive) for expansive views of the north Pembrokeshire coastline, or join the Pembrokeshire Coast Path at Abermawr (10 minutes) for dramatic clifftop walks. Kitewood’s owners will be happy to recommend the most suitable section of this long-distance path for your fitness level. Then there’s the beaches, of course, whether you’re into surfing and swimming (Barafundle Bay, one hour), fishing (Abermawr Bay, 10 minutes) or spotting seals (Abercastle Beach, 15 minutes).

Unpowered forest floor tent site (private bathroom amenities)

Liked: Excellent campsite and layout. Camped here by chance and weather forecast changed and wanted some shelter. Tucked away in the woods, each pitch has plenty of room and includes: - Shelter - Benches - Hot Shower - Toilet There's a bug pile of wood and wheelbarrows to help yourself too for fire and it's only 20 mins walk into Fishguard. Highly recommended and started an appreciation for Forest Camping

Local attractions

The surrounding area is dotted with constructions dating back to ancient times, including the Pentre Ifan Burial Chamber (25 minutes), with several massive stones sourced from the nearby Preseli Hills. The Gors Fawr Stone Circle (half an hour) dates from the second or third century BC, while three stone cairns mark the top of the Iron Age Foel Drygarn Hill Fort (35 minutes). Originally built in the 12th century, St Davids Cathedral (25 minutes) was later much altered and added to, which results in its intriguing blend of Romanesque and English Gothic architectural elements. Just across the River Alun are the medieval ruins of St Davids Bishop’s Palace. In addition to farm animals (from lambs to shire horses), Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (40 minutes) is home to lions, giraffes and other African mammals. There’s also a Ferris wheel, plus a selection of vintage-style rides, from waltzers to dodgems, in an indoor enclosure, so the rain doesn’t have to stop the good times.
