  • Family-friendly site with easy access to Newgale Beach, Pembrokeshire
  • Haverfordwest 15 minutes’ drive; Tenby 50 minutes
  • On the Pembrokeshire Coast Path; a two-minute drive from a pub
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. 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. The nearest pub is a two-minute drive away, and there are several restaurants within a five-minute drive, plus plenty more in Haverfordwest (15 minutes).

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Everything about the site. The staff were friendly and welcoming.. facilities were great. From the showers, to the back hind charging facilities.. they have thought of everything. The live music on the Saturday night was great.. great atmosphere. Loved it. Will definitely return.

Disliked: The wind lol.. nothing we can do about storms.. the price of being in such a beautiful part of the coast

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: This is a brilliant campsite - great location, very clear arrival instructions, lots of information around the campsite for things to do in the area, and where to get help if needed. The facilities were very clean and all staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We had to change our dates at the last minute, and they still managed to fit us in during the run up to Easter weekend. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Electric grass pitch (medium, no pets, water hook-up)

Liked: Toilets very clean and staff very friendly and attentive. No problems with the dogs staying with their owners and all the dogs were happy with plenty of room to move. Campsite is split into dog friendy and dog free area so everyone is catered for.

Footpath at the bottom of the site to reach the beach over the road. To get to the beach you have to go over pebbles acting as a flood defence but on the far end there is an accessible area by the car park which also has very clean toilets.

New bar opened on site on Friday and I expect it to be very popular in the warmer weather.

From the manager: Thanks for the great review! Yes the new bar is going down really well and we expect it to be very busy going forward :) we hope to see you again!

All the best, Team Newgale x

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: The levelled off pitches on the slope were a real bonus as we had a fantastic sea view. The facilities were very clean and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Everyone else we met on site were also friendly and it had a good atmosphere.

Disliked: Not a dislike, but if you stay in a tent, be aware that the road is quite busy and we pitched up close to it, so obviously got woken up early!

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Really good pitches, very close to the beach. Toilet and shower facilities were very clean. We will be coming again when the weather is warmer.

Disliked: More options for food would be great. With the pub closed due to fire, there is only one cafe. A small shop on site would be good.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi there,

Many thanks for the fab review. Our new takeaway cafe and bar will be opening May 2025 adjacent to the campsite. This will be licenced to sell alcohol too. We will also sell the essentials such as milk and toiletries.
We hope to see you again soon,

Best wishes,

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.
