VW-Type Campervan - Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)Aug 2025

I loved this site which was well located, very safe and my pitch was very private. It was a shame that the high vegetation around the pitch meant there were no sea views. There were plenty of facilities, I didn't need to wait at all, an the site was very clean. Great for a solo female traveller and the layout offered good pitches for families and small groups too.

Medium Tent - Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)Aug 2025

We have just arrived home after 3 nights at this campsite. The site was easy to find. Ann was very welcoming, showed us around the facilities which were spotless. The site is very quiet and chilled. Easy access to the beach and amazing costal walks. We will definitely be returning.

A very enjoyable stay

Small Tent - Grass Pitches (Optional Electric)Aug 2025

I had a pitch in a small field with an electrical hook up. Water was on tap 5 meters away and toilets, showers and washing basins a very short walk around the corner. View was great, Abercastle cove ten mins walk down the hill leading directly to the coastal path. The Spar and filling station is a short drive away. Staff were nice and informative at the campsite. Plenty of room for car and tent. A short but sweet stay.

A note from the site themselves...

Camping has always been part of my life. From when I was a baby, I camped with my family all over the UK, Europe, America and Africa. Some of my fondest memories are of those adventures - exploring new places, living simply, and always being outdoors. One thing I loved while camping in France was how many sites offered large, individual pitches.

So when the opportunity came to set up a campsite here on my land at Garn Isaf, I knew just what I wanted to create. With groundwork carried out across the property, we had plenty of excess stone and earth - and, with the support and permission from the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, we decided to shape it into traditional hedge banks between most pitches.

These not only provide natural privacy and shelter for campers but also create fantastic wildlife habitats, which have become a haven for birds, insects, and small mammals. It fits perfectly with the character of Pembrokeshire - the land of the little fields - and helps the site blend beautifully into its surroundings.

I hope you'll find the same joy here that I've always found in camping. I feel incredibly privileged to welcome new guests here - and absolutely love welcoming back our regulars, many of whom have now become friends, some who have been coming since the very beginning in 2005. I look forward to welcoming you here and letting you see for yourself.

Things to do on site and in the Abercastle area

Just a ten minute walk from your pitch is Abercastle Cove, a small, sheltered bay that's great for paddle boarding or watching the boats bob on the water. This pretty little cove is part of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, making it an ideal starting point for scenic clifftop walks.

A 15 minute drive brings you to the famous Blue Lagoon at Abereiddi, a bright blue natural pool surrounded by dark slate cliffs. Once a working quarry, it's now a popular place for wild swimming and coasteering.

If you fancy a classic beach day, head to Whitesands Bay, about 25 minutes away. With golden sands, it's popular with surfers and swimmers, and there are often lifeguards in summer.
