  • Peaceful 10-acre site two miles from Solva harbour
  • Within 15 minutes' drive of St Davids and Newgale beach
  • Campfires welcome, with firepits provided and wood for sale
Stretched across 10 acres, with open space all around and within easy striking distance of St Davids and Solva… Ffynnonddewi’s a super spot for a break in pretty Pembrokeshire. ‘Back to basics camping as it used to be – but with better bathrooms’ is how the folk here see their site. In fact, each pitch has its own composting toilet, and a dog shower is available for four-legged friends. Hot showers for humans are also on hand to hose off the sand after a beachy outing. Stargazing around the campfire is one of their fave pursuits, so they’ve kitted the place out with firepits and will happily sell you some wood to stack up in them. Barbecues are welcome too, with supplies to be sourced from the delis of St Davids or the bigger supermarkets 15 minutes away in Haverfordwest. Ffynnonddewi has its very own cidery on site and is fully-licensed to sell ciders and other local beers and wines. These can be delivered right to your pitch, and there's also the option of having baguettes and hot drinks delivered for breakfast the next morning. Nippers with energy to spare have plenty of space to run about and play games on site, and there’s a separate six acres next door where dogs can be liberated from the lead for some dashing about.

Benjamin L. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Everything was above and beyond what I had expected. From the warm greeting to what was available on site. I was slightly off season but was still offered breakfast, wood (with a free bag of marshmallows), beer and more from a small kiosk. Free solar Charing for phones in keyed lockers. There was not just information on walks but laminated A4 maps you could borrow. In with the green site credentials the site plots where divided my some wildlife friendly vegetation. At night there was no traffic noise but plenty of owls, donkey, cows and the odd flying goose singing in the distance. The pitches were very generous in size and each has it own compost loo. The loos were were clean and even came with a complementary loo roll, yes that is what I forgot so thank goodness for that foresight! There was some many little small things that added up to a site that really took away a lot of stress any from camping. Can't wait to book again.

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Clean shower and toilet block for communal use along with personal toilet on the pitch. WiFi and phone charging facilities were a great touch. Onsite dinks and firewood shop was handy Peaceful with large pitches felt as though everyone using the site in the week we camped here respected others and the site and understood camping etiquette.

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Lovely large pitches on a safe small site - great space in the middle of the field for the children to play. The option to order breakfast to the tent is a definite bonus as is the honesty fridge for drinks / firewood / marshmallows. Having your own toilet is great to avoid the morning queues. The solo powered charging pods work well and the electric kettle in the washing up area makes getting your morning cup of tea a dream as no waiting to boil a kettle on a little gas stove!

Unpowered grass site

Liked: We loved the large pitches with a toilet per pitch. The showering and washing up facilities are really good with a swap shop shelf and phone charging. Breakfast can be purchased onsite with a great selection on offer. There is an honesty payment fridge of a variety of drinks, marshmallows and firewood. The dog walking field is fab, especially when you own a lunatic spaniel. All in all a really lovely place to stay with great campsite hosts and all the amenities you could wish for.

Disliked: Nothing. Fabulous site.

Local attractions

Pembrokeshire’s famed for its beaches – and rightly so, for they are many and varied. Stride forth on foot from Ffynnonddewi and you’ll get to the nearest little beach in about half an hour; for something somewhat more massive, it’s a 10-minute drive to the two miles of splendid sands at Newgale, or 20 minutes to Whitesands. Both are popular surf hangouts too, with kit hire and guidance to be had. In between the beaches, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path runs along all 186 miles of the county’s coastline and makes for some cracking days of sea-view strolling. Should you be hankering after something more energetic, activity centres 15 minutes away in St Davids can hook you up with days of kayaking, paddleboarding, coasteering and climbing. It’s worth sticking around in St Davids for a while too, to take a wander around the cathedral and Bishop’s Palace, and grab a bite in one of its independent restaurants or pubs. It’s also the place to sign up for boat trips to Ramsey Island, home to Wales’s most sizeable grey seal colony.
