Stag weekend in Pembrokeshire
I’ve just got back from a weekend in Pembrokeshire. Dennis, a friend from Bristol is getting married in a few weeks time so it was a stag weekend with a difference. Nothing too ‘stag-like’ about it in fact and Dennis didn’t even want to call it a stag weekend, just a weekend away before the wedding.
We stayed at Caerfai Farm campsite which although fairly basic had nice views of the sea and all the amenities you need whilst camping, including toilets, showers and a little farm shop. It was also fairly quiet and there was plenty of room. We did manage to squeeze 9 tents onto one pitch though which seemed to confuse the campsite owners!
The weather was great and most people returned looking decidedly red thanks to too much time in the sun. As well as heading off to the pub each night, we sat around a campfire on the beach wandered around St. Davids and went for a swim in the sea. I also walked along the coast path a bit and found a geocache. The beach at Caerfai Bay is a small rocky cove with sand when the tide is out. The rocks around here are perfect for scrambling over and ‘coasteering’. The coast path is easily accessible from the campsite and as part of the Pembrokeshire National park offers amazing views and lovely coastal scenery. I didn’t walk far along the coast path but did explore the nearby St Non’s Chapel and walked around the deep inlet of Porth Clais.
All in all a nice weekend away and its about time we got our own tent and went camping with Morgan. if only we could guarantee nice weather all the time.
