Welcome to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, where new adventures are waiting. There are 240 spectacular square miles just waiting to be discovered. World famous for its dazzling beaches, weather-worn cliffs, secret coves jewelled with rock pools, and islands with unique wildlife habitat, Pembrokeshire's crinkled coast offers endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. Here, where land, sea and sky combine, walkers, surfers, kayakers and sailors are in their element. National Geographic Traveller magazine in the US recently rated the Pembrokeshire Coast one of the top two coastal destinations in the world. No wonder its visitors keep returning, year after year.
Accommodation - Hostel
Dale Fort Centre is set in a spectacular location high on the cliffs within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, giving superb views over the sea. Built in 1856 to defend the Milford Haven waterway against invasion, it has been a field centre since 1948. For many visitors staying in a 150 year old historic Fortress is exciting. It comes with a fully fitted kitchen with gas industrial cookers, dishwasher, fridge, freezers, microwave, crockery and utensils.The centre has rooms of various sizes with single bunk-beds and ensuite (toilet/shower in the room) or regular (sink in the room) facilities. The centre is exclusively hired by MFA and the facilities will only be used by us.
