  • Serviced campervan pitches in the grounds of a Pembrokeshire pub
  • Folly Farm three minutes' drive; 10 minutes to Tenby or Saundersfoot
  • Family-run pub with beer garden and home-cooked meals
Finding a campervan pitch in the grounds of a pub is always a good idea for ease of access to an evening meal and a drink or two at the end of the day. But it gets even better at The Begelly Arms, where you’ll get not just that but also a handy location that puts you within just a short drive of some of Pembrokeshire’s top attractions (beaches, castles and family attractions among them). This family-run pub is about half a mile from Kilgetty, in a very convenient spot close to both the A477 and A478 for easy journeys to all sorts of places – Folly Farm is pretty much just round the corner, and the beaches of Tenby, Amroth and Saundersfoot are about 10 minutes’ drive away, as are places like Carew Castle and Oakwood Theme Park. That means filling your days should be straightforward – and so should catering for your evenings, as the pub has a restaurant serving up home-cooked meals (using local seasonal produce where possible). There’s a good range of drinks, too – including an impressive range of whiskies – which you can sip in the cosy interior or out in the beer garden on sunnier days. You’ll be pitching up in the pub’s car park, which has a small number of dog-friendly hardstanding pitches with grass areas and services including water, waste and electricity. You’ll have access to the pub’s toilets during opening hours, and you can also buy breakfasts in the restaurant if you like. Dogs are welcome on site, but not inside the pub please.

What customers say

This pub stopover has well-kept, level pitches with water, EHU, often with a picnic table & artificial grass. Friendly, helpful staff. Great for exploring Tenby/Saundersfoot, with a nearby bus stop, and good value. Some noted no showers or bins, but 24hr toilet access was appreciated. Food's good, though some wish dogs were allowed inside.

Michelle R.

FHU cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Great value for money. Level hard standing pitch with EHU and water as well as a table and bench set on your pitch was perfect. £17.50 was a great price. There was no obligation to eat or drink here but we did and enjoyed a lovely steak meal with a beer.

Disliked Would like it better if there was a dog friendly area inside tye pub.

FHU cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Excellent facilities, very friendly people, beautifully prepared food at a reasonable price, stayed 3 nights, and used the close bus stop to visit Tenby, and Saundersfoot, great days out. At 77 and 75, we really enjoyed our stay. Our sincere thanks to the brilliant staff at the Begelly arms.

Disliked No locks on mens toilet cubicles, both broken.

James F.

FHU cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Level hardstanding pitch with included electric hook up and water. Patio area with bench for each pitch, great food in the restaurant, friendly and welcoming staff, 24-hour access to pub toilets, CCTV monitoring pitches, quiet main road, easy location, felt safe and happy!

Disliked Nothing to dislike - there were no showers but we knew when booking and it is a pub stop as opposed to a campsite so it really is great value for the cost.
