  • Quiet, spacious site on a hill above the village of Kilgetty
  • Fabulous views over the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
  • Set on 10 acres of mature and well-kept grounds
Surrounded by the gorgeous green countryside of west Wales, Ryelands Holiday Park is a splendid spot for a peaceful Pembrokeshire retreat. From this hilltop position above the village of Kilgetty, you’ll have fabulous views over the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park – and of one of its main attractions too. Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo is less than half a mile away, and you’ll be able to see it from the campsite to ramp up the excitement ahead of your visit. That’s not the only attraction that’s easy to get to from this handy base – places like Manor Wildlife Park, Wild Lakes Wales and the award-winning Heatherton World of Activities are all about 10 minutes’ drive away. For beach days, the ever-popular towns of Tenby and Saundersfoot are just a few miles away too. Set within 10 acres of mature, well-maintained grounds, there’s plenty of space at Ryelands Holiday Park to relax and unwind or enjoy a kickabout. A small play area is also available for the little ones. The on-site amenities block has been completely refurbished and upgraded for the 2025 season following visitor feedback, with high-quality toilets, hot showers and washing facilities, all cleaned daily. Firepits and wood are also available for those who want to enjoy a cosy evening outdoors under the stars. For essentials or a quick bite, Kilgetty village is only half a mile away with takeaways, a fish and chip shop, a cosy pub, a well-stocked supermarket and a post office. The village is also home to an award-winning restaurant with a butcher and fishmonger inside (something tasty for your barbecue, perhaps?). The village also has train and bus links to help you explore the stunning Pembrokeshire coastline and countryside easily.

Kay C.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Very peaceful spacious site with lovely views. Plenty of open space for the children to play. Clean toilet and shower facilities and under cover washing up area. The cleaning lady is lovely! We didn't see any wardens but had clear instructions on where to pitch sent to us the day before arrival.

Disliked Nothing to dislike about the site. The wasps were a nuisance so suggest to bring insect repellent.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Beautiful views. Free showers, lovely clean facilities.
Just a short drive to so many family attractions and gorgeous beaches

Disliked It says there's a children's park onsite.
I disagree, yes there are a couple of swings and a small play area but it's amongst the permanent caravans and nowhere near the campsite. I don't think the site should be advertising the park as an attraction for families booking for a one off stay.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Anna was an incredible warden at the site and made us feel very welcomed and at home with her instantly likable personality it felt like we had a new best friend. Not only did she keep the toilets immaculately clean but she created a real sense of community between the campers and went out of her way to help us. Ryelands is definitely a place we will be returning too as the toilets and showers are fantastic and the location is a great base for Sauderfoot, Tenby and Narberth. Also the fish and chips situated at the end of the road in kilgetty is the best around especially if you want epic gluten free fish.

Local attractions

Just behind the site’s field is access to the Miners’ Walk of south Pembrokeshire, the circular trail to and from Kilgetty that winds past old industrial sites of the area. Leave Ryelands Holiday Park and stroll downhill through woodland for 40 minutes or so to join the famed Pembrokeshire Coast Path at the Wisemans Bridge pub – obviously with a stop-off first for a supper at the inn garden and its smashing views over Carmarthen Bay… Indoor and outdoor attractions and activities of all flavours are within a five-mile radius of the site, such as family days out at Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (five minutes’ drive) and the Blue Lagoon Water Park (10 minutes). The sands and sea of handsome seaside town Saundersfoot are 10 minutes’ drive away too. Slightly further afield are more family days at Heatherton World of Activities (15 minutes), and the beaches of Tenby (15 minutes) are along the coast.
