  • Simple pitches with a warm welcome at a Pembrokeshire rugby club
  • A 10-minute walk from the centre of St Davids
  • Clubhouse on site for food and drink; dogs and kids welcome
Wales is famously a nation that loves its rugby – so what could be more fitting than staying right on site at a Pembrokeshire rugby club? St Davids Rugby Club should make a splendid base for exploring around north Pembrokeshire… To start with, the site is just a 10-minute walk from the centre of St Davids, Wales' smallest city, where there are shops, places to eat and attractions like the cathedral and Bishop’s Palace. Coastal favourites like Solva, Porthclais and Whitesands beach are all nearby – and if you need any tips on places to go, you’ll be in the right place to ask a local. Although these pitches are fairly simple in style, they’re safe and flat and you’ll have access to lots of useful facilities including showers, toilets and fresh water. You’ll also be most welcome to join the locals at the clubhouse, which has a pool table and dartboard as well as serving a good range of food and drinks. (Pint of beer that helps support a community enterprise? Be rude not to…) Don’t worry, you won’t have to get involved in any scrums when staying at St Davids Rugby Club as the pitches are well away from the rugby pitches. What you will be doing by staying here is helping to support Wales’ most westerly club, with profits from the campsite going towards keeping the game running in the UK’s smallest city.

What customers say

Great spot, close to St Davids town and buses. Staff are friendly, facilities are clean and good value. Basic but well-kept loos/showers open 24/7. Some say limited facilities, especially single toilet/shower. Clubhouse/food popular when open.

Liked Great location. Easy 10 min walk to the town and bus stops which take you to the beaches. Also only a 40 min walk to Whitesands. Quiet campsite. Club house was open some of the time we were there, so there was a bar on site. Toilet and shower were clean and well maintained. Basic but suited our needs.

Disliked It could really do with a few more showers and toilets for when the site is busy but other than that, it was fine

Liked St David’s

Disliked We arrived before 6pm but the rugby club was locked and the place deserted, called the given number but no answer and left a voicemail, no use of toilet facilities on the first night, tried the rugby club the next morning and again all locked with nobody around, spent several hours out before trying again at the rugby club in the afternoon but still locked so no facilities again on day 2.

Liked A brilliant location just 10 minutes walk from St Davids. We also liked the fact there was one shower and one toilet that's available 24/7 with a code. All spotlessly clean. Would definitely stay again .

Disliked Only very small dislike, there is only one bathroom to share across the site.

Liked Great cost and ideal location. Definitely recommend. Quiet

Disliked 1 shower and toilet but we knew this before booking. Campsite wasn’t busy so no issues with waiting. Toilet/shower facilities would be nice to be cleaned and restocked with toilet paper and tissue paper for hands on a regular basis

Liked Price was good at £17 compared to other options. Remember it’s a rugby club not a fully equipped camp site.
Free access to a toilet/shower and an outdoor tap. Toilet and shower in same room which is not an issue when site not busy.
Grass site at side of rugby pitch was level and firm despite recent rain. Some bigger vans remained in car park due to those concerns, but probably not possible when rugby club is in use.
Only 1min walk to toilet.
Lovely countryside views and only 10in walk to town and supermarket opposite which is children’s playground.

Disliked We arrived on Tuesday and were a bit confused as there was no one there. However a friendly helpful man who was doing some work there said the couple that run it are off Monday/Tuesdays so club closed. We paid him and he passed money on.
A communication glitch with their mobile phone also meant we couldn’t contact them. But other campers there were able to give access to the toilet/shower which is coded. Managers apologised via text, but we never met as we left early on Wednesday morning.

Liked Fantastic bagels on site! Great shower.
Good location, flat site, 15 - 20 minutes from the center of St. David's.
Facilities not all as advertised as the site had new owners but this didn't affect the stay & owners reduced the price

Local attractions

Start your stay with a little stroll around St Davids, visiting the cathedral, Bishop’s Palace and Oriel y Parc gallery, before heading out of town on a path to Caerfai beach or Whitesands Bay. The latter is a well-known surf location, so you may prefer to drive there (five minutes' drive) if you’ve got boards with you. Walks on the Wales Coast Path are highly recommended, of course – perhaps along to St Non’s Chapel, to the little harbour at Porthclais or all the way along to the pretty village of Solva (10 minutes' drive). Heading north, Porthgain and the Blue Lagoon at Abereiddy (both 10 minutes) are also popular spots. This stretch of coast also attracts a whole lot of wildlife, and the best way to see some of that is on a boat trip to Ramsey Island, which you can organise from St Davids. Back on dry land, kids may well be intrigued by a trip to Dr Beynon’s Bug Farm (three minutes’ drive).
