Boasting over two miles of golden sand, it&#8217;s become a popular destination for holidaymakers.<\/p>\n<p>Renowned for having one of the best surfing beaches in Pembrokeshire, Newgale is an absolute must-visit if you are in this area. It is located on the western coast, some 7 miles south of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welsh-cottages.co.uk\/st-davids-peninsula-holiday-cottages.html\">St Davids<\/a> and about 9 miles from the county town of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welsh-cottages.co.uk\/haverfordwest-cottages.html#close-map\">Haverfordwest<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Want to find out more about this lovely stretch of coastline?

Newgale is really all about the beach.<\/p>\n<p>If you do fancy a trip to the pub after a busy day on the beach, The Duke of Edinburgh offers classic pub fare with a games room to keep the kids entertained. You can also grab a bite to eat at any time of the day at The Sands Cafe.<\/p>\n<p>If you head a little further inland, you&#8217;ll find the village of Roch less than three miles away. Much like Newgale, you won&#8217;t find a huge variety of amenities here &#8211; but you can pick up some delicious local seafood! Great for taking back to your cottage and cooking up some tasty delicacies for the family.<\/p>\n<h2>How about the beach?<\/h2>\n<p>Newgale is one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welsh-cottages.co.uk\/blog\/9-best-beaches-pembrokeshire\">favourite beaches in Pembrokeshire<\/a>. Spanning some 2 miles of the coastline, Newgale beach is an absolute beauty. It is pebble backed with plenty of sand at low tide and there is ample space in Newgale&#8217;s car parks to cope with even the most demanding days. Kitesurfing and surfing classes are available on the beach during the busy summer months, so it&#8217;s well worth booking an hour or two if you fancy trying out a new hobby!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d prefer to escape the crowds on the main section of the beach, you&#8217;ll find an assortment of coves and hidden bays to explore. These are often quite sheltered, making them a good spot for picnics without the risk of sand-filled sandwiches!<\/p>\n<p>Lifeguards are on duty during the summer months, but it&#8217;s still worth keeping track of the tides if you plan on going for a dip.<\/p>\n<p>Like many beaches, there are dog restrictions between 1st May and 30th September on certain sections of the beach. However, there are some parts that allow dogs throughout the year &#8211; the beach map should help you find out which places are dog-friendly.<\/p>\n<h2>Are there are other sights nearby?<\/h2>\n<p>The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path also makes its way along the beach and some great short or long (depending on your mood) walks can be made along the coastal path here.<\/p>\n<h2>Where to stay<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welsh-cottages.co.uk\/cottage\/South-Wales-Pembrokeshire-HaverfordwestHwlffordd\/Dill-Cottage-1035706.html\">Dill Cottage (Ref. 1035706) Newgale, Pembrokeshire, South Wales &amp; Pembrokeshire<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2162\" src=\"https:\/\/www.welsh-cottages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2019\/12\/resized-image-Promo-25.jpeg\" alt=\"Dill Cottage\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A cosy dog-friendly home, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welsh-cottages.co.uk\/cottage\/South-Wales-Pembrokeshire-HaverfordwestHwlffordd\/Dill-Cottage-1035706.html\">Dill Cottage<\/a> is just a mile from the village of Newgale.
