A wide, flat sandy beach at low tide, but also plenty of space at high tide. Pretty harbor, breathtaking views from above. Please note: between May 1st and September 30th there are dog restrictions on the entire beach except for a small area just before Coppet Hall beach!

The stairs are tough, but the effort is rewarded - among other things by this magical square.

Opened in 1849 by the Pembrokeshire Coal and Ironworks Company, the Stepaside iron works were an imporant part of the region's industry. Here, ore collected from the cliffs between Saundersfoot and Amroth would be processed in the blast furnaces and coke ovens. A railway was built to transport anthracite coal to the harbour at Saundersfoot, though it ceased operation in 1939, not long after all activities stopped at the workshops in 1930. Today, it makes for an excellent walk, full of industrial heritage and natural beauty.

Coppet Hall was where coal was shipped out during the region's 19th-century industrial heyday. At that time it was known as Coalpit Hall. It was connected to the iron works at Stepaside by a railway line that now forms part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. If you're in need of refreshment or a refuel, there are sandwiches, ice creams and hot drinks available from the Kiosk.
