  • Modern site with Ramsey Sound views, a 10-minute drive from St Davids
  • A 10-minute walk to St Justinian’s; Whitesands Bay 10 minutes’ drive
  • Dog-friendly pitches a short walk from the Pembrokeshire Coast Path
With spectacular views and access to some of Pembrokeshire’s finest countryside, Rhosson Ganol Caravan and Camping Park is in a splendid spot a 10-minute drive from the cathedral city of St Davids, on a working farm that has been home to the same family for more than 100 years. In addition to modern, clean and well-maintained facilities and hot showers, this family-orientated site has far-reaching views towards Ramsey Island and the St David’s Head peninsula. Settling in here means you’re in a prime location to explore this dramatic coastline – or alternatively just hang around on site to enjoy the serenity and the sunsets over Ramsey Sound. If you fancy abandoning the car for a day, you can take the 10-minute walk to St Justinian’s, where you can go on a guided tour of the RNLI St Davids Lifeboat Station on the cliffside. From St Justinian’s, you can also access the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, go on a fishing trip or take a boat to Ramsey Island, an RSPB Nature Reserve where you might see guillemots, choughs and Atlantic grey seals. Dogs are welcome to join you here, and at many of the local attractions – the closest dog-friendly beach is the quiet, sheltered cove of Porthselau (15 minutes’ walk). From here, at low tide, you can wade to Whitesands Bay – but be sure to check the tide times before attempting this route. Alternatively, stay dry by hailing the local bus service, which will take you right into St Davids.

What customers say

Stunning spot with amazing Ramsey Island views & sunsets. Spacious, quiet pitches. Top-notch loos. Great for coastal path & St. Davids. Longer walk to facilities & patchy signal noted, but owners' great service shines through.

Disliked Shower block some distance away
Road leading into the site itself has several pot holes which filled with rain water, so couldn’t walk to the shower block without getting wet feet (it was raining consistently mind)

Liked Absolutely stunning views of the coast and Ramsey Island. The site is easy to find and very accessible for motor homes etc. our pitch was named when we arrived and easy to set up. The facilities are very new and well thought out but are a bit of a walk from the pitches. Definitely be prepared for a bit of gusty wind, having such a view means you are very exposed to the elements.
The walks from the site are amazing and easily reached. Great Wi-Fi connection. Just to be aware this is a busy working farm and not a site where staff are readily available and on hand however the farmer can be reached by text in emergencies.

Disliked The shower blocks seemed not to be checked daily but there wasn't many campers during stay.

Liked Location was very quiet and the views were amazing. Toilets, showers and washing facilities were good.

Disliked Not being able to find the WIFI password. This could be added to your pitch reservation slip.
Not seeing the owners at any point during our stay. When tried to contact them, they either didn’t reply or took over a day.
Power cut during our stay and no information from owners.

Liked The view of the sea

Disliked Worst campsite I have ever stayed in. Dry difficult to find locations of things. No helpful information easy to find. Toilet/shower blocks filthy. Post-apocalyptic vibes despite the beautiful location. Nowhere to sit and wait out the rain. Lights not working. Depressing vibe

Liked Location was lovely, facilities were clean and functional and no issues. Site was well kept and WiFi was good signal

Disliked Our name wasn't on list when we arrived so never knew what pitch and owner never answered phone after numerous attempts to find out where we were meant to be so ended up just going on a empty pitch as was getting late.

Local attractions

St Davids (10 minutes’ drive) owes its status as Britain’s smallest city to its 12th-century cathedral, with its remarkable wooden nave ceiling. Take in St David’s shrine, then visit the Gothic ruins of St Davids Bishop’s Palace just across the Alun river before heading back into the city centre for a look at art galleries and a bite to eat. If you’ve come to Wales with your surfboard or paddleboard your next stop should be Whitesands Bay (10 minutes), also known as Porthmawr – it's a top destination for watersports. With its sandy crescent overlooked by rugged hills covered in wildflowers, the area also lends itself to lazy beach days or coastal walks. A trip to Dr Beynon’s Bug Farm (10 minutes) ought to make kids with a passion for creepy crawlies pretty happy. In addition to a Tropical Bug Zoo with an ant colony, there’s also a British Bug House and a Walled Garden with butterflies and bees, plus several trails through farmland where you can learn about the importance of insect pollinators.
