Cilrath Wood Camping
Vehicle-free eco camping on a Grade II Listed Pembrokeshire farm, where pitches sit in ancient woodland and the Preseli Hills fill the horizon.
Cilrath Wood Camping occupies a Grade II Listed farm on the ancient Landsker border, a few minutes from Narberth and within reach of the full length of the Pembrokeshire coastal path. The pitches are vehicle-free: you park, you walk in, and the site settles into something quieter than most. Fifteen pitches spread across ancient meadow and woodland, each with its own fire bowl and picnic bench, with uninterrupted views toward the Preseli Hills.
Pete and Jackie run the place with real care. A wildlife conservation lake sits at the heart of the site and a ten-minute loop takes you through woodland, around the water and back across the fields. Bluebells in season, a dawn chorus that earns its reputation, and a communal parachute shelter that becomes the social hub on wetter evenings. Firewood, fire starters, fresh eggs and home-made fudge are all available on site.
Facilities are honest rather than polished: compost toilets (centrally located and very well kept), hot showers, a shared kitchen prep area with sinks, communal fridge-freezer, and free plug sockets. There is a children's-sized bathroom and the meadow pitches have enough space between them that families spread out without crowding each other. Narberth is a 30-minute walk or a short drive: good pubs, restaurants and a proper independent high street.
This is a site with a clear point of view. Eco credentials are real, the setting is the reason to come, and the owners plainly love the land they're running.
