Go prepared!
Beautiful location for this site with lovely walks in every direction. However there is absolutely nothing on site in the way of provisions. No milk, no bread, no gas nothing. You are asked not to put glass in the mixed recycling bins as it’s too heavy for the wardens to lift. The toilet blocks are closed for cleaning at 10 am, which if your on holiday can be a tad early. Appears to be run for the convenience of the wardens. The narrow dog legged entrance to the site needs careful negotiation so as not to kerb your vehicle or trailer.

Beautiful, clean well run site with very helpful hosts
A quiet, but truly beautiful site, with lots to do if you like walking and the outdoors. Hosts are very welcoming and helpful, and the facilities are excellent and very well looked after. Easy access to the Coastal Footpath, Whitesand Beach and St Davids is in easy walking distance, or there is an hourly bus from outside the site entrance if you prefer. St Davids Cathedral is a must, and although a bit of a drive, Skomer is well worth a visit, particularly in spring and early summer. Puffins are totally unafraid of people, and the rabbits don't run away ! There have been comments about the lack of a shop - true, but the shop at the adjacent public site is only 200 yards away, and has most things you need. We stayed for 4 nights, but will be back !
Great Peaceful site in a lovely setting
Access roads a little narrow in places but take your time & all will be fine. Warm & friendly welcome from the sites staff who are only too happy to help. Toilet block clean with a separate wc when the main block is closed for cleaning. Childrens play area (not tested as no Children) but the kids looked to be enoying themselves. No longer a shop on site but the campsite next door has all you need. Bus service from the site entrance to Whitesands beach (walking distance) & also St Davids. The site is all grass awning pitches & the staff work hard to keep the site looking great.. Porthgain is a well worthy visit with its harbour & history plus pub & chippy.Pembrokeshire coast is stunning with a recommended vist to Solva/Newgale/Stumble head & fishguard.
A little disappointed - no shop.
We have stayed here a number of times and previously awarded a 5 star review.
The staff were friendly. The dog pit stop is a great improvement on having to walk up the lane to allow pooches to do their thing. In addition there is now a gate which means dogs can have a little mooch off lead. The gate seemed secure, a simple latch.
The shower block is spotless.
There is less disturbance from rooks these days as most of the trees have gone. Although personally they didn't trouble me.
The pitches are flat and seem to drain reasonably well. There are lovely walks from site around Carn Lidi and the little cove of Porth Melgan is a delight.
The ice cream kiosk at Whitesands Beach sells lovely ice cream. So why you may you ask only 4 stars.
Well, there is no shop at all. No gas, no chemicals, no milk, no bread - absolutely nothing. (Although you can go next door to the neighbouring site!)
I understand that this a permanent state of affairs - not just covid related. I have enquired of caravan club what the situation is and I await their reply.
The site is often very windy. Peg your awning down well!

Nice Quiet Site
Away from the hustle and bustle of town life where bird song can be heard all day long. Staff are friendly and worked hard to get the toilet block open early each day, and they is always the toilet around the side of the block that is open. St David's is about a 1.5 mile walk away, easy cycle if you do not mind a short hill each way (even easier if you have an electric bike). Whitesands is just down the road, good for surfing and has RNLI beach patrol. Site gets the sea breezes so will be cooler when the sun is not out. We will stay here again.
Enjoyable short stay
We enjoyed our short stay at the site. The site team were friendly and the facilities were very clean. We were, however a little disappointed that there was no shop open at the time of our stay and the Dog Walk was basically a walk around the average new build house garden and the gate was not adequately secure. This we feel is important as the walk is adjacent to the children's play area .
A great place.
Not long back from ten days at St. David's. Great location, ideal for walking the Coastal Path and seeing all sorts of wildlife, or cycling quiet lanes and minor roads. Well kept site with helpful, informative and enthusiastic wardens.

Lovely stay at this site
We have recently stayed for 6 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it-our first trip to Wales.
The wardens were very friendly and informative about the surrounding areas when we arrived after our very long journey.
The views from the site are amazing-this is a very natural site-which fits in with the surroundings perfectly. The beaches and walks are fabulous and St David’s is a perfect little City with a beautiful little Cathedral to visit.
Great toilet and shower block which was very clean.
All in all we really enjoyed our visit here and hope that it stays being harmonious with its surroundings
