  • Family-friendly site with easy access to Newgale Beach, Pembrokeshire
  • Haverfordwest 15 minutes’ drive; Tenby 50 minutes
  • On the Pembrokeshire Coast Path; bistro-bar on site
If you would like your Welsh holiday to be punctuated by spectacular sunsets over the sea, now might be the time to book a spot at Newgale Campsite. This family-run (and family-friendly) spot benefits from a privileged location on the western coast of Pembrokeshire. How do you fancy the idea of getting up in the morning, crossing the road, scrambling across a low bank of shingle and being faced by the spectacle of St Brides Bay? It shouldn’t take any more than… oh, about one minute on foot to reach Newgale Beach. The time you save by staying so close to the sea can be invested in your favourite water-based activities, whether wild swimming, surfing or canoeing. The Pembrokeshire Coast Path passes just by the site; follow it north to reach Porth Mynawyd (a one-hour walk), a remote tidal beach in a deep cove with shallow waters and rockpools, or south to Nolton Haven Beach (55 minutes’ walk). This is a popular spot for surfing, so you might want to drive instead and bring your board (it takes about 10 minutes by car). National Trust - Southwood Estate (five minutes’ drive) is a top place for spotting the local wildlife, from grazing ponies to nesting birds. The nearest pub is right on site: the bistro-bar, named The Landsker Line, dishes out local Pembrokeshire ales, soft drinks and coffee, as well as food like pasties, sausage rolls, loaded fries and ice cream. It's a splendid place to refuel and unwind, especially since it has sports TVs and live music from artists throughout the season. Amenities on site include a toilet/shower block with facilities for disabled guests, a launderette and a communal freezer. On weekends in June and the school summer holidays, a catering van serves woodfired pizzas. There are also several restaurants within a five-minute drive of the site, plus plenty more in Haverfordwest (15 minutes).

What customers say

Great beachside spot with friendly staff and clean facilities. Pizza van and pub on site. Some found it a bit busy with road noise and pricey showers/pizza. Still, a good atmosphere and close to the sea.

Carys R.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Excellent access to a lovely beach that allows dogs either end.
Pizza van on site is useful when not wanting to cook every night.
Shop/cafe - chips, chicken nuggets, bacon rolls, pints, hot drinks, cold drinks, bakery, milk, eggs, bacon etc
Showers and toilets are clean - the small charge is a good idea as there are 4 showers and kept queuing time short.

Disliked We are relatively new to camping and so far have been to quiet camp sites with more room around the campervan so it took us a little time to adjust to how busy it was - but as we spent all the time on the beach not really an issue!

Unpowered grass site

Liked Site clean and tidy, staff do a fantastic job maintaining facilities. Location brilliant as directly opposite the beach and on Welsh coastal path. Very family friendly. Cafe/bar offers good menu with quality products and also well thought in offering bread/eggs/milk for those who don't want to leave site

Disliked Made me nervous there's no barrier between the campsite and main road with the amount of stones in the road especially at night with traffic exceeding speed limits

Liked Everything, from polite, helpful staff, clean facilities, accessible location with amazing sea view ( literally the most beautiful & clean beach was across the road), 'Sunset pizza', - wood fire delicious pizza freshly made to order on site, to an amazing live music band! Could not ask for more.

Disliked Can't think of one

Local attractions

The smallest city in the UK, St Davids (15 minutes’ drive) has a cathedral that holds a shrine to St David, which was an important pilgrimage site in the Middle Ages. Just across the River Alun are the imposing ruins of Llys yr Esgob, Tyddewi / St Davids Bishop’s Palace. Roller coasters, water rides and family attractions await at Oakwood Theme Park (half an hour), which also has a soft-play area and indoor games. If the kids (or you…) are more into animals, book a relaxed trek at Pembrokeshire Llama Sanctuary (45 minutes). Do you like sunrises as much as sunsets? Then get up early and head to Tenby (50 minutes), which has two east-facing sandy beaches on Bae Caerfyrddin. From Tenby it’s also possible to catch a boat to Caldey Island, where you might buy chocolate or perfume made by the resident monks.
