As part of our Green Traveller's Guide to Pembrokeshire National Park, Paul Bloomfield picks out a selection of barns, cottages, eco lodges and campsites in this wonderful protected area in southwest Wales.
Each of the places we've listed has been chosen because it offers a truly green (and gorgeous!) experience, whether that's Preseli Venture's eco lodge and activity centre, or the truly innovative geodesic 'dome' at Fforest Camp. It doesn't matter whether you're looking to lose yourself in the Welsh countryside or bed down next to the ocean, there's something for you.
And because you don't have to worry that your stay is having a negative impact on the environment, you can tuck into that locally sourced breakfast, or explore the woodland trails, knowing you're doing your bit to conserve Pembrokeshire.
