Construction work has commenced on 80 new 'Platinum' luxury ecologically sensitive lodges at Bluestone National Park Resort, near Narberth, Pembrokeshire.

A total of £23million has been invested in the development which is the fourth phase at Bluestone which currently has 344 existing lodges, cottages and studio apartments surrounding its private village all nestled within 500 acres of Pembrokeshire countryside.


At least 250 jobs will be sustained during the construction phase and 100 operational jobs will be created once completed. Bluestone already employs more than 800 people and 65 per cent of its £6million annual expenditure is retained in Pembrokeshire through employment and using a local supply chain.

The company said the additional lodges will increase visitor spend in the area by £1m a year and Bluestone’s own impact on the economy by a further £1.5million annually.

The 'Platinum' lodges will be located with their private entrance, complete with virtual check-in. They will provide some of the most luxurious facilities to date at the resort.

The construction work will be undertaken in four phases over 18 months, with the first lodges opening in Summer 2023.
