  • Relaxed site between the Pembrokeshire coast and the Preseli Hills
  • Haverfordwest 15 minutes' drive; St Davids half an hour
  • Family- and dog-friendly farm camping; campfires and barbecues allowed
Whether you’re just looking for somewhere to stay in Pembrokeshire's pretty countryside or planning big hikes and bike rides, you’ll be in a prime patch at Headlands Farm Camping. What makes this space such a great base? Well, its simple and well-presented farm field pitches have the relaxed and laidback vibe you’d want out of any holiday location. There’s also easy access to both the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, and the Preseli Hills, a range of small mountains just to the north. Facilities across the small-scale site include things like chemical waste disposal and a toilet block, making Headlands Farm Camping a wise choice for self-sustaining groups of adventurers who are happy to stick to the bare necessities. Families, dogs, motorbikes and same-sex groups will all find a warm welcome here. You’re likely here for some action out in the Pembrokeshire countryside, but it’s also easy to get out and visit attractions elsewhere too. Perhaps Llys-y-frân reservoir (10 minutes’ drive), the sandy beaches that line the shores of St Brides Bay (25 minutes) or the tiny city of St Davids (30 minutes)? Handily, the site’s also a quarter of an hour's drive from the centre of Haverfordwest, which is a sizeable town packed with pretty much all you need for the duration of your stay. Supermarkets, cafés and pubs aside, the town also has a great public leisure centre and the ruins of a medieval priory to explore.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Nice quiet campsite, access to water and electricity. The washing facilities have everything you need and not too far away from your pitch which was good for us with young children. Host was very friendly. Good location to visit beaches and folly farm.

Electric optional grass motorhome pitch

Liked: The pitches were grass and good access to water

Disliked: The facilities were poor considering the cost of the campsite. The sinks were grubby and spidery and there was nowhere to wash you face and no soap or toilet roll in the toilets.

Lovely site, nice owner, slightly let down by facilities.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: That we were greeted by the owner next day

Disliked: In the beginning, nobody was there, so we didn't even know where to stay. It was a bit misleading to get an extra electric pitch, we didn't see this extra charge down the menu while booking and in the end all our food went off and we couldn't inflate the mattresses. The camp itself is very basic, one toilet and quite cold showers with only one temperature.

Local attractions

Your break can be as relaxing or as action-packed as you like here. The start of the Preseli Hills is just 10 minutes’ drive away, meaning that you’ll be poised for hiking among crags, or following The Golden Road past burial cairns, prehistoric remains and Iron Age hill forts. At Llys-y-frân reservoir (10 minutes' drive), the adventurous vibe continues: sailing, canoeing, mountain biking or paddleboarding will surely get your blood pumping. As for those of you who have kids to keep well-entertained, both Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo (30 minutes) and Heatherton World of Activities (40 minutes) are likely to snatch up even short attention spans. Here primarily for the lush Welsh coastline? Dive right in – literally – at St Brides Bay (20 minutes), where snorkelling and diving are common pastimes. Tenby (45 minutes) is a treat for all things watersports, fishing trips and ghost walks. If you’re looking for a slightly more laidback sort of day (that isn’t a beach day, at least), probing around the cathedral, museum and gallery in St Davids (30 minutes) fits the bill.
