Bluestone National Park Resort has announced the much-anticipated return of its festive celebration, “Kingdom of the Elves”.
Returning for the first time since 2019, from November 4 to January 2, the resort will transform into a festive wonderland, with new seasonal experiences being introduced for all the family to enjoy.
Guests visiting Kingdom of the Elves this year can get stuck into complimentary activities, including the Jingle Jive, a celebration with Christmas characters, festive games, disco, and singalongs, Polar Postal, where Santa’s elves will collect little ones’ special letters, and Christmas Countdown, a daily celebration with the elves as the big draws nearer.
Extra activities on offer include Santa’s Lodge, nestled in the trees, and the Elf School Journey, where guests discover Christmas secrets, learn festive skills, and graduate with joy. The day can also begin with the Elf Breakfast, a lively buffet filled with singing, dancing, and plenty of fun alongside the playful elves who bring the Kingdom of the Elves to life.
Recently voted third best resort in the UK and Wales’ top resort by Which?, Bluestone is a five-star self-catering resort, spanning 500 acres of Pembrokeshire countryside. Known for its seasonal takeovers, the resort promises to give guests, big or small, a magical experience, calling it the ‘ultimate Christmas experience’.
The Christmas magic will extend across the entire resort, with the elves spreading festive cheer throughout the Blue Lagoon, the subtropical water park, and the Serendome – the UK’s largest ‘umbrella’ and the hub of entertainment.
Bluestone’s firm favourites will still be running alongside the seasonal events, with a wide range of adventure-filled activities to choose from. For guests looking for a little respite from the festivities, the doors will also be open to the award-winning ‘Well Spa’.
Operations Director at Bluestone, Rebecca Rigby, said:
“The Bluestone team is thrilled to welcome Kingdom of the Elves back to the resort. Our ‘Christmasland’ event was a huge success over the last few years, but Kingdom of the Elves has always held a special place in our guests’ hearts.
“This year, we’re pulling out all the stops to make the festival even more special. With exciting new events and mischievous elves spreading festive cheer from the moment guests arrive, it’s the perfect way for all ages to embrace the Christmas spirit. We can’t wait to turn the Christmas lights on and for everyone to experience the magic.”
Last year, the resort added 80 new platinum lodges to its lineup, each designed to accommodate up to eight guests and includes complimentary access to an electric buggy. With these spacious lodges, Bluestone is looking forward to welcoming more multi-generational families, especially during the festive season.
The resort has also enhanced its sustainable efforts with its brand-new solar farm, which launched in September 2024. Aiming to provide 30 percent of Bluestone’s annual electricity, it will help power this year’s magical lights across the resort for the first time.
For guests looking to book a Kingdom of the Elves stay, a four-night, midweek break starts from £360, while a three-night weekend break starts from £495 (based on a 2-bedroom lodge sleeping up to 4 people).
