Pitchup
A warm welcome to our Patch of the Planet
On the Southern foothills of the Preseli Hills, you’ll find our five acre, organic smallholding, with its beautiful, quiet little family-friendly campsite.
We enjoy stunning views over Pembrokeshire, wonderful stars at night, a beautiful rural setting and an array of wildlife, including badgers, bats, a willow copse, and regular close visits from Red Kites.
With coast, hills, countryside and destinations all around us, we're brilliantly located for a varied holiday of hills, beaches, days out and coasts. It’s also just up the road from the Llys-y-Fran country park and activity centre.
We love that people want to stay here for their holidays and we do what we can to make the experience special.
About the site
We sell eggs and fresh salad when available, as well as logs for open fires at each pitch. If you’re feeling sociable, join others in the large, communal fire pit, based in a willow circle.
Hot showers, generous pitches and room to roam come as standard. But we’re a little different to most campsites.
You’ll be based on our working, nature-based smallholding where we also run a fruit tree nursery and grow fruit and veg. There’s an orchard, a willow coppice, chickens and lots of focus on building space for nature to run wild, as well as people.
You’ll often see us busying ourselves out and about around the site and we’re always happy to chat.
nature aplenty
Look and listen and you might discover badgers, buzzards, owls, hedgehogs, dragonflies, foxes, red kites, bats and much more.

There are footpaths all across it with beautiful walks and views. That includes footpaths right by us and lovely walks in all directions from our doorstep. And we're just up the road from Llys-Y-Fran country park and outdoor activity centre.
