🐾 **Tired of muddy leads, dodgy recall and the classic “he’s friendly!” moment? Here are some inland and enclosed dog walking fields around Pembrokeshire**

Pembrokeshire is famous for beaches, cliffs and coastal walks, but not every dog wants a busy beach. Some dogs need space. Some need peace. Some need a fence because they have the recall skills of a drunk pigeon.

So, we’ve had a look around the county for dog-friendly enclosed fields, secure paddocks and fenced areas where dogs can enjoy a proper run without their owners developing a nervous twitch.

Please check directly before travelling, as prices, opening times and booking rules can change.

🐕 **Llys-y-frân Dog Agility Area, Clarbeston Road**

📍 **Address:** Llys-y-frân Lake, Clarbeston Road, Pembrokeshire, SA63 4RR
💷 **Cost:** Free
🌳 **Size:** The wider Llys-y-frân site is around 350 acres, but the off-lead dog agility area is a specific fenced activity area rather than the whole site
📞 **Contact:** Llys-y-frân Visitor Centre, via Welsh Water / Llys-y-frân website
✅ **Best for:** A free day out, a walk around the lake, and a dog who fancies pretending they are at Crufts

Dogs are welcome at Llys-y-frân, but they must be kept on leads around most of the site. The good news is that there is a dedicated dog agility area where they can go off-lead and try out equipment including weave posts, a seesaw, a catwalk and a jump-through. Great for burning off energy before the cafe visit. Human agility area sadly not provided, which is probably for the best.

🐕 **Llanstinan Dog Park, Letterston**

📍 **Address:** Llanstinan Kennels, Letterston, Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, SA62 5XD
💷 **Cost:** From £10 for one dog. Prices rise depending on the number of dogs
🌳 **Size:** Enclosed private dog park, exact size not clearly published
📞 **Contact:** 01348 840676
✅ **Best for:** Dogs with poor recall, reactive dogs, or owners who would like to unclench their jaw for 45 minutes

Llanstinan Dog Park is part of Llanstinan Kennels and offers private hire sessions. Bookings are for 45 minutes, with the remaining time used to clean up and leave the park before the next visitor arrives. The site says it opens from 6am, with closing times varying depending on light and weather. In other words, great for early risers and Labradors with too much emotional commitment to tennis balls.

🐕 **Cosheston Dog Field, Cosheston / Pembroke Dock**

📍 **Address:** Batemans Hill, Cosheston, Pembroke Dock, SA72 4TU
💷 **Cost:** £12 per hour
🌳 **Size:** Around one acre
📞 **Contact:** 07538 245957
✅ **Best for:** Exclusive-use dog zoomies near Pembroke Dock, Pembroke, Tenby and Milford Haven

Cosheston Dog Field offers one acre of enclosed exercise space for private hire. It is fully enclosed with stock fencing and hedgerows, giving dogs room to run without owners having to scan the horizon like security at Glastonbury. Handy location too, close to the A477.

🐕 **Saundersfoot Dog Park, Bush Farm, Kilgetty**

📍 **Address:** Bush Farm, Kilgetty, Pembrokeshire, SA68 0SE
💷 **Cost:** From £5 for 30 minutes. One dog for 60 minutes is listed at £10, with extra dogs at £1 each

📞 **Contact:** 07982 492501 or [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** A private run near Kilgetty and Saundersfoot without heading straight for the beach

This fenced and gated paddock offers private hire with enrichment obstacles. It is aimed at dogs who need safe off-lead time, including nervous dogs, reactive dogs and those with the recall of a shopping trolley on a hill. Advance booking is required, so do not just turn up and hope for the best. That is not a plan, that is a sitcom.

🐕 **Ruby’s Field Secure Dog Park, Whitland / Llanboidy**

📍 **Address:** Ruby’s Field, Llanboidy Road, Whitland, SA34 0ED
💷 **Cost:** £5 for 30 minutes or £10 for one hour, for up to four dogs
🌳 **Size:** Listed elsewhere as around 0.5 acre
📞 **Contact:** 07919 308670 or [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** A calm, secure field for reactive dogs or dogs still working on recall

Ruby’s Field is a family-run secure dog park designed for dogs with reactive behaviour or poor recall. It is fully enclosed and bookable for private use. A lovely option for people on the eastern side of Pembrokeshire, or anyone near Whitland who needs a safe space without the stress.

🐕 **Ffynnone Dog Field, Boncath / Abercych**

📍 **Address:** B4332, Abercych, near New Chapel and Boncath
💷 **Cost:** Booking required, price not clearly shown in the public search result
🌳 **Size:** Around two acres
📞 **Contact:** 07960 308868 or [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** North Pembrokeshire dogs who need a bigger run in a secure rural setting

Ffynnone Dog Field is described as a securely fenced private dog exercising field between Abercych and New Chapel. Listings describe it as around two acres, with six-foot fencing, water and shelter. Basically, room for the dog to run, sniff and behave like it has never seen grass before.

🐕 **Herbrandston Dog Field, Milford Haven area**

📍 **Address:** Herbrandston, Milford Haven area. Exact field address provided through booking
💷 **Cost:** Not clearly published in the search result
🌳 **Size:** Not clearly published
📞 **Contact:** 07816 482923 or [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** Milford Haven and north-bank dog owners looking for a local secure field

Herbrandston Dog Field has an active booking page and is listed as open from 6am to 8pm, seven days a week. Reviews describe it as safe and secure, especially useful for nervous dogs. Good local option if your dog needs freedom but not the full “let’s disappear into the next parish” experience.

🐕 **Pooches at the Paddocks, Manorbier**

📍 **Address:** Shipping Hill Farm, Manorbier, Tenby
💷 **Cost:** £5 for 30 minutes or £10 for around 55 minutes, according to recent listings
🌳 **Size:** Just over one acre
📞 **Contact:** 07376 243274 or [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** South Pembrokeshire dogs who like a secure paddock with enrichment equipment

Pooches at the Paddocks offers a secure one-acre-plus dog walking paddock with enrichment equipment, six-foot fencing, coded gate access and off-road parking. There are weave poles, a tyre, a tunnel and other bits for dogs who enjoy having a proper job to do, even if that job is mostly “run in circles and look thrilled”.

🐕 **Valley Orchard Dog Park, Narberth**

📍 **Address:** Valley Farm, Valley Road, Narberth, SA67 8BS
💷 **Cost:** £5 for 30 minutes or £10 for one hour for up to four dogs
🌳 **Size:** Around one acre
📞 **Contact:** 07780 686175 or [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** Dogs who like sniffing, exploring and living their best orchard life

Valley Orchard Dog Park is a secure orchard near Narberth with tunnels, tyres and enrichment features. It is a peaceful option for training, recall practice or letting dogs run off-lead without bumping into other dogs. Perfect for dogs who enjoy a scenic sniff with a side order of chaos.

🐕 **The Hay Meadow Dog Walking Field, near Nolton Haven / Broad Haven**

📍 **Address:** Nolton Haven area, Pembrokeshire, SA62 3NW
💷 **Cost:** £12 per hour for up to two dogs, with extra dogs listed at £1 per hour
🌳 **Size:** Around five acres
📞 **Contact:** 07789 887038
✅ **Best for:** Bigger-space walking, nervous dogs, sensitive dogs and recall practice

The Hay Meadow is a secure five-acre dog walking field near Nolton Haven. It offers exclusive use and is aimed at dogs who need a calm, safe space. Five acres is a proper run, so if your dog gets out of the car already vibrating like a tumble dryer, this might be the one.

🐕 **Woof and Tumble Pembs, near Tiers Cross**

📍 **Address:** Near Tiers Cross, Pembrokeshire
💷 **Cost:** £5 for 30 minutes, £10 for 60 minutes, or £15 for 60 minutes for three or more dogs
🌳 **Size:** Not clearly published
📞 **Contact:** [email protected]
✅ **Best for:** Dogs who love natural sniffs, trees, streams and muddy toe beans

Woof and Tumble Pembs describes itself as a secure dog walking field near Tiers Cross, with trees, a stream and plenty of natural sniffing opportunities. This one sounds ideal for dogs who like their walks a bit more wild, but still safely enclosed.

🐾 **Why these places matter**

Not every dog can cope with a busy public park, a packed beach or another dog charging over at full speed while someone shouts, “He’s friendly!” from three fields away.

Secure dog fields are brilliant for:

Reactive dogs
Rescue dogs
Dogs with poor recall
Nervous dogs
Young dogs in training
Older dogs who need calm space
Owners who fancy a walk without needing the reflexes of a ninja

They also give dogs a chance to run, sniff, train, play and decompress. And let’s be honest, a tired dog is a better housemate than a bored dog who has decided the sofa cushion is an enemy combatant.

🐶 **Final reminder**

Always book ahead where required, clean up after your dog, follow each field’s rules, and check fencing height if your dog is a known escape artist. Some fields are perfect for most dogs but may not suit tiny puppies, serious jumpers or dogs under control orders unless the owner confirms it.

Pembrokeshire has beaches, woods, fields, reservoirs and countryside in every direction, but these secure dog spaces are a real bonus for owners who need peace of mind.

Happy walking, happy sniffing, and may your dog’s recall be better than your mobile signal in the Preselis.

Fancy something other than a coastal walk ? Pembrokeshire has lots of choice ……. Take a look 👀 🐕‍🦺 🚶‍♂️

🌿 Pembrokeshire walks that AREN’T the Coast Path, and yes, your knees are invited

When people talk about walking in Pembrokeshire, the Coast Path usually steals the show. Fair enough, it is a bit of a show-off. But away from the cliffs and sea spray, the county is packed with woodland paths, reservoirs, castles, rivers, lily ponds, valleys and Preseli views that are perfect for a family stroll, a gentle leg stretch, or a proper “why did I agree to this hill?” afternoon.

So, whether you’re walking with children, pushing a pram, bringing the dog, easing back into fitness, or just trying to get everyone off a screen for an hour, here are some brilliant Pembrokeshire walks that are not on the Coast Path.

🥾 Easy and family-friendly walks

Carew Millpond Easy Access Walk
Start: Carew Castle car park
Distance: 1 mile / 1.6km
End: Carew Castle car park
Time: Around 30 to 45 minutes
This is one of the best gentle walks in Pembrokeshire. Level, surfaced paths take you around the millpond with views of Carew Castle, the tidal mill and, on a still day, a reflection good enough to make your phone think it is a professional camera. The National Park lists it as an easy access walk with mostly level surfaced paths.

Llys-y-Frân Family Trail
Start: Llys-y-Frân Visitor Centre
Distance: 1.5 miles / 2.4km
End: Back at the Visitor Centre
Time: Around 45 minutes to 1 hour
A cracking choice for families, little legs and anyone who likes their walk with a café nearby. The family trail follows the eastern side of the reservoir, ducking in and out of the trees, with picnic spots along the way. Pembrokeshire County Council describes Llys-y-Frân as a 350-acre country park with a reservoir, wildlife and a family trail from the visitor centre.

Puncheston Short Walk
Start: Puncheston village
Distance: 1.7 miles / 2.7km
End: Puncheston village
Time: Around 1 hour
A short north Pembrokeshire countryside walk with fields, local history and village character. It is not too long, but it still feels like a proper “we went out” walk rather than just wandering to the shop for milk and accidentally buying biscuits. The National Park lists it as a 1.7-mile short walk taking around 1 hour.

Canaston Wood Short Walk
Start: Canaston Wood car park / Minwear area
Distance: 2.3 miles / 3.7km
End: Back at the start
Time: Around 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes
Woodland tracks, reasonably level paths and no stiles or gates make this a lovely choice for families and casual walkers. It is a proper trees-and-fresh-air route, with less drama than a teenager asked to unload the dishwasher. The National Park describes the Canaston Wood route as 2.3 miles on reasonably level woodland tracks, with no stiles or gates.

Pengelli Wood
Start: Pengelli Wood area
Distance: 2.2 miles / 3.6km
End: Back at the start
Time: Around 1 hour 30 minutes
Ancient oak woodland, wildlife, mossy paths and a slightly magical feel. It can be muddy in places, so this is one for shoes you do not mind getting a bit “Pembrokeshire authentic”. The National Park lists Pengelli Wood as a 2.2-mile walk taking around 1 hour 30 minutes, through ancient oak woodland on well-defined paths.

🌳 Moderate walks for a bit more adventure

Upton Castle Walk
Start: Upton / Cosheston area
Distance: 2.6 miles / 4.2km
End: Back at the start
Time: Around 1 hour 30 minutes
A lovely mix of woodland, fields and views towards the castle grounds. It is reasonably level overall, with some quiet road walking, so it is a nice middle ground between “gentle stroll” and “I have made a terrible footwear decision”. The National Park lists the Upton walk as 2.6 miles, around 1 hour 30 minutes, with woodland, fields and livestock.

Carew Full Circuit
Start: Carew Castle area
Distance: 3.3 miles / 5.3km
End: Carew Castle area
Time: Around 1 hour 45 minutes
If the 1-mile millpond route feels too short, this longer Carew circuit adds more countryside while keeping the castle and millpond as the headline act. Expect fields, livestock, stone stiles, steps and some road walking. The National Park’s route notes list the full Carew circuit as 3.3 miles, taking around 1 hour 45 minutes.

Llanychaer, Gwaun Valley
Start: Llanychaer
Distance: 3 miles / 4.8km
End: Llanychaer
Time: Around 1 hour 30 minutes
A riverside and woodland route in one of Pembrokeshire’s most atmospheric inland valleys. Expect old bridges, birdsong, muddy patches and one steep section. In other words, it is beautiful, but maybe do not wear your white trainers unless you enjoy regret. The National Park describes it as an easy-to-moderate 3-mile walk taking around 1 hour 30 minutes.

Bosherston Lily Ponds Adventure Walk
Start: Stackpole Outdoor Learning / National Trust centre
Distance: 3 miles / 4.8km
End: Viewpoint over Broad Haven South, then return route as planned
Time: Around 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours
This is not the Coast Path, but it does give you one of Pembrokeshire’s most beautiful inland water settings. Lily ponds, wildlife, views and a beach viewpoint at the end. Some paths are uneven and there are gradients, so it is more adventure stroll than pavement plod. The National Park lists the Bosherston Lily Ponds adventure walk as 3 miles, starting at Stackpole Outdoor Learning and ending at a viewpoint over Broad Haven South.

Minwear and Canaston Woods Half-Day Walk
Start: Minwear / Canaston Woods area
Distance: 5.1 miles / 8.2km
End: Back at the start
Time: Around 2 hours 30 minutes
For those who want more than a short woodland loop, this gives you riverside views, Blackpool Mill and a good dose of trees. It is reasonably level for the distance, making it a great option for walkers who want a longer outing without heading up into the Preseli Hills. The National Park lists the Minwear and Canaston Woods half-day walk as 5.1 miles, taking around 2 hours 30 minutes.

⛰️ For stronger walkers and “we brought snacks, we mean business” days

Rosebush and Foel Cwmcerwyn
Start: Rosebush
Distance: 4.8 miles / 7.7km
End: Rosebush
Time: Around 2 hours
A proper Preseli walk with forest track, moorland and views. The big draw is Foel Cwmcerwyn, the highest point in Pembrokeshire, plus the old Rosebush slate quarries. This one is more exposed and can involve livestock, so go prepared. The National Park lists the Rosebush route as 4.8 miles, around 2 hours.

Cwm Gwaun Half-Day Walk
Start: Cwm Gwaun / Coed Sychpant area
Distance: 5.2 miles / 8.4km
End: Back at the start
Time: Around 2 hours 15 minutes
Woodland, fields, livestock and steep valley sides. This is a beautiful walk for people who like their countryside with a bit of climb and a lot of character. The National Park notes woodland, fields, livestock and steep ascents on the valley sides.

Llys-y-Frân Reservoir Full Circuit
Start: Llys-y-Frân Visitor Centre
Distance: 6.27 miles / 10.1km
End: Llys-y-Frân Visitor Centre
Time: Around 2 hours 40 minutes
A longer reservoir loop on gravelled track, with water views and plenty of space to clear the head. Welsh Water lists the full reservoir circuit as a hard route of 6.27 miles / 10.1km, taking around 2 hours 40 minutes.

The Golden Road, Preseli Hills
Start: Preseli Hills route area, commonly linked with Rosebush / eastern Preseli access
Distance: 7.4 miles / 12km one way
End: One-way finish, so plan transport before setting off
Time: Around 4 hours
This is one for more experienced walkers. It is a rugged ridge-top route with moorland, boggy patches, livestock, Bronze Age burial mounds, Carn Menyn and big Pembrokeshire views. In other words, it is stunning, but it is not a “pop out in Crocs” situation. The National Park lists the Golden Road as a 7.4-mile one-way route taking around 4 hours.

🌦️ Before you go

Pembrokeshire has walks for just about everyone, from smooth easy-access paths to muddy woodland loops and big Preseli leg-stretchers. Visit Pembrokeshire also highlights that there are accessible routes across the county for wheelchair users, prams, people with limited mobility and anyone looking for a gentler surface.

As always, check the weather, wear the right shoes, keep dogs under control, close gates, take your rubbish home and do not underestimate a “short walk” in Pembrokeshire. It may be short on the map, but somehow still finds a hill. Funny that.

So this weekend, skip the doom scrolling, grab a coat, choose a route and get out into Pembrokeshire. The Coast Path is lovely, but it is not the only star of the show. 🌿🥾

PRESS RELEASE: Recent rockfall prompts safety reminder
--
Pembrokeshire residents and visitors are being advised to be cautious when accessing the Coast Path and beaches following a number of recent landslips at coastal locations.

A wet winter following last year’s dry summer may lead to further landslips and cliff falls over coming weeks.

Those visiting the coast are reminded to stay clear of cliff edges and advised not to sit directly beneath cliffs when visiting beaches.

Cliffs along the Pembrokeshire coast are naturally formed and constantly changing as a result of coastal erosion and weathering.

Heavy or prolonged periods of rainfall can seep into cracks and weaken layers of rocks, reducing stability and increasing the likelihood of rockfalls and landslips.

These processes are normal part of how the coastline evolves but they mean that cliffs faces can fall suddenly and without warning.

Cabinet Member for Residents’ Services Cllr Rhys Sinnett said: “We have seen a number of landslips and cliff falls around the County this winter and want people to ensure they are aware of their surroundings while out and about.

“If you are out on the coast, please stay safe and follow HM Coastguard guidance to stay well back from cliff edges and bases, follow any warning signs in place, and stick to signposted coastal paths.”

James Parkin, Director of Nature and Tourism at the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority commented: “After months of prolonged rainfall, we are experiencing areas of instability along several sections of the coast and we’d advise everyone to be mindful of their surroundings and take extra care when accessing the Coast Path and beaches.

“We’re working with colleagues from partner agencies to monitor the coastline and issue advisory information via our social media channels and website where required.”
