Bluestone National Park Resort Free Range Holidays – Let’s play Bluestone National Park Resort is an all weather luxury short break destination like no other. Relax, unwind or play and have fun in over 500 acres of spectacular Pembrokeshire countryside - it’s all about free range holidays at Bluestone! Since opening in 2008, Bluestone National Park Resort has quickly grown to be one of the largest private sector employers in Wales. With a workforce of over 700, further expansion will take staff numbers to 1,000 by 2020, with 90 per cent of the current workforce living within a 30 mile radius of the resort. The resort is the perfect place to escape to whether you are looking for a generational family break, romantic short break, or if you’re celebrating an occasion with friends. Guests can choose from a range of luxury lodges set around a private Welsh village with cottages and studio apartments, fine dining restaurants, shops, a pub and its very own holistic spa and thermal rooms. With over 100 activities to choose, from high ropes and zip wires through ancient woodland, to bug hunts and nature craft sessions, there is something for everyone to enjoy. The resort is also home to the Blue Lagoon Water Park, flumes, wild waves and a lazy river. The water park is the world’s first to be heated by biomass. Warmth is provided by an energy centre, which is fuelled by woodchip and Miscanthus which is grown by local farmers. Combine all of this with the opportunities to visit the nearby coastal towns and countryside communities and you have a perfect short break destination, whatever the weather.
