Simple Pembrokeshire pop-up campsite five minutes’ drive from Tenby
Wales Coast Path five minutes’ walk; Penally beach 40 minutes' walk
Back-to-basics pitches; farm shop within five minutes’ walk

When it’s time for a back-to-basics, off-grid camping adventure in the spectacular Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, pack up the tent and all your gear and head for Giltar Grove Camping. Part of a farm with sea views, this family-friendly pop-up site is particularly handy for hikers ‘doing’ the Wales Coast Path, as it’s only five minutes’ walk away. Basic facilities available on site include a toilet of the portable variety, a hot shower, a wash basin and a drinking-water tap on the level camping field. Please note – electricity is not available. Bonuses, however, include easy access off the main road through a farm gate, and parking is allowed next to your tent on the grass pitches. If you’ve packed the barbecue and are keen to get down to some alfresco grilling, pick up provisions in Tenby supermarkets (five minutes’ drive). Alternatively, there’s a farm shop and café within five minutes’ walk, as well as a couple of pubs in Penally (a few minutes’ drive) for the days when you just don’t feel like cooking. Filming of the Doctor Who TV series took place in the adjacent field in early 2023.

Cath J. Sept 2024

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked: great location and on a bus route, near to the coastal path

Disliked: grass hadn't been cut
facilities very basic
the owner called by and was very helpful and pleasant
no mirror

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi, thank you for your feedback, it’s very much appreciated but I must point out that this is a basic camp AS described on Pitch Up WITH basic facilities, it’s a pop up site on National Parks so the grass is wild unfortunately, maybe next time your down this way stay in a bigger campsite to suit your needs not a basic one. The mirror has been replaced several times following theft. Once again, thank you for staying.

Lorna H. Aug 2024

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Andrew was so friendly and welcoming. He made sure the site was clean and tidy with bins emptied twice a day, the toilets and showers were cleaned twice a day and the actual facilities were really top notch, hot showers aren’t always standard, but these were easy to use and piping hot.
The surrounding area is great, with loads of activities for all ages if that’s what you want to do. We just enjoyed walks along the breathtaking coast and fun on the beaches.
Bless Andrew, he truly went above and beyond when we’d packed up and our battery died. He jump started our car for us! We will be back next year with our extended family!

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Lovely quiet campsite. We would have stayed longer but the wind stopped play. We look forward to returning in better weather. Toilet and shower spotlessly clean. We saw the owner checking up on the cleaning when we were there.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike with campsite. The roast outside is quite busy so if you are planning on the coastal walk be mindful of the little ones that you may be taking.

Local attractions

Several beaches are within walking distance of the campsite, including the dune-backed, crescent-shaped Penally beach (40 minutes’ walk or a five-minute drive), or you can turn west along the Wales Coast Path (five minutes' walk) to the sand-and-shingle cove at Lydstep Haven (15 minutes). From there, just carry on walking; after 40 minutes, Skrinkle Haven beach, encircled by steep cliffs, will hove into view. Turn east for views over to the Cistercian monastery on Caldey Island as you stroll, and you can be in the historic walled town of Tenby in about an hour. There are three sandy beaches on which to plonk yourselves down, as well as a fishing harbour and medieval castle to nose around, and colourful waterfront cottages to admire. If the kids are demanding a treat, you may like to let them be animal keepers for the day at Manor Wildlife Park (five minutes' drive). Younger offspring can run amok on the dinosaur trail at Dinosaur Park (10 minutes) or whizz around the go-kart track and wear themselves out zorbing on the pool. There’s more family fun to be had on the fairground rides at Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (15 minutes), where there are also big cats in spacious enclosures, penguins frolicking in their pool and cuddly ponies at the petting farm.
