Bluestone National Park Resort has announced a significant expansion through the launch of 64 new luxury holiday lodges in time for the summer holidays.

The announcement takes the luxury holiday village’s total number of five star lodges, cottages and studio apartments to more than 300.

The completion of the new lodges marks the final phase of an ambitious expansion programme, which took 18 months and cost £8.5 million.

The development comes against the backdrop of sustained growth for the five star resort, which is set over 500 acres of national park near Narberth.

Visitors can now chose from four different lodge types - the three-bedroom Tenby, six-bedroom Tenby Connect, the open-plan six-bedroom Pembroke, or the four-bedroom St. David’s lodge, which comes complete with its own playroom. Each lodge also has its own garden and outdoor dining patio area.

Pamela McNamara, commercial and operations director for Bluestone, said: “The completion of phase three is a significant milestone for Bluestone. The development of the new lodges has been several years in the making and underpins an ambitious vision to further cement our offering as the go-to independent luxurious accommodation resort.

“Nestled in unparalleled Welsh scenery, the new lodges are impeccably designed to a high specification to cater for visitors’ modern living requirements, offering more choice than ever, including catering for larger groups.

“Crucially, the expansion will also provide further employment opportunities for Pembrokeshire, helping to grow the local economy and bringing new visitors to this unique part of Wales.”
