Stay at New Holmus Farm

Accommodation that fits around your paddling

Stay where your activity begins. Participant camping offers a simple, friendly base, while Holmus Cottage provides a comfortable self-contained option when available.

The Wheelhouse shared indoor space at Sea Kayak Academy

Two on-site options

Choose the stay that suits you

Both options keep you close to the Academy, the Chart Room classroom and the practical facilities. Guests staying on site also have the Wheelhouse: a spacious shared indoor social area with sofas and a basic kitchen. You are equally welcome to stay elsewhere and travel in each day.

New Holmus Farm and Holmus Cottage are owned by Ant and Libby. The Academy is based here permanently; this is our home and working base, rather than a hired course venue.

Simple booking

How to arrange your stay

1

Add camping

Add camping during online checkout where offered, or arrange it by email as part of your course booking.

2

Ask about the cottage

Email before booking if Holmus Cottage availability affects your plans. It operates separately and cannot be assumed to match every activity date.

3

Receive arrival details

Your joining information explains where to go, where to park and anything you need to know before arriving at New Holmus Farm.

Why stay on site?

A calmer course rhythm

No extra morning journey, hot showers, somewhere practical for wet equipment and more time to reset between days. The Chart Room, kit-care facilities and the shared Wheelhouse indoor space are all on the same site.

Prefer to stay elsewhere?

That works too

You can choose other accommodation in Pembrokeshire and travel to the Academy each day. Your joining information confirms the normal 9:00am meeting time unless something different has been arranged.

Plan your journey

Would you like to stay on site?

Camping is normally the straightforward option. Email Ant if you need to add it to a booking or want to check whether Holmus Cottage could suit your dates.
