A Proper Dog-Friendly Stay

Dog-Friendly Beaches Near St Davids

Caerfai Bay (1 mile)
A small, sheltered, south-facing bay with stunning multi-coloured cliffs and golden sand at low tide. Access is via a steep, winding path, so sturdy footwear is recommended. Dogs are welcome year-round.
Our tip: Time your visit for low tide to enjoy the beach at its best – the exposed sand is perfect for dogs to run and explore.

Caerbwdi Bay (1 mile)
A quiet, rocky cove east of St Davids, reached on foot via the coastal path. This peaceful spot is ideal for a contemplative walk with minimal crowds. Dogs are typically welcome year-round.
Our tip: Perfect for a tranquil morning walk when you want to escape the busier beaches. Rocky terrain means it stays quiet even in peak season.

Solva Harbour & Beach (3-4 miles)
A picturesque harbour village with sandy patches appearing at low tide. The harbour walk is gentle and scenic, making it perfect for all ages and fitness levels. Finish with a coffee at one of Solva's charming cafés. Dogs are welcome year-round.
Our tip: Visit at low tide for the best beach access. The walk along the harbour is excellent for energetic dogs who need a good run, and the village has several dog-friendly pubs.

Abermawr (20-minute drive)
A more secluded beach with pebbles and rocks, backed by ancient woodland. This peaceful spot rarely gets crowded, making it brilliant for longer, slower-paced walks when you want complete tranquility. Dogs are welcome year-round.
Our tip: Park away from the beach and walk via the woods.
