About Trellyn Woodland Campsite
Trellyn Woodland Campsite sits in mixed woodland near St Nicholas, a short drive from Newport and close to the coast at Abercastle and Pwllcrochan, and is run along deliberately low-impact, back-to-nature lines. Pitches are spread through the trees rather than lined up in an open field, giving each one a sense of privacy and shade that is unusual for a Pembrokeshire campsite.
The site keeps facilities simple and sympathetic to its woodland setting, with composting toilets, hot showers and a small honesty shop for essentials, but no electric hook-ups, which suits campers looking for a genuine escape from mains power and Wi-Fi. Fire pits are permitted at most pitches, and the wooded setting gives good shelter from the wind that can otherwise sweep across this exposed stretch of the north Pembrokeshire coast.
Its location makes it a good base for exploring the quieter western end of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path around Abercastle and Trefin, as well as Newport and the Preseli Hills a little further east, and it attracts a mix of walkers, families and campers simply looking for a peaceful few nights among the trees.
