For over 35 years, Preseli Venture set the bar for sustainable adventure tourism, working in harmony with the astounding wilderness of their surrounding environment and maintaining a working partnership with the National Trust and National Park to use their nearby pristine locations for outdoor adventures.

They now work with an exciting range of local activity partners who they trust to bring you the same high-quality experiences:

• Boat Trips

Directions

By Car

• Take the M4 west as far as it goes past Swansea, and then join the A48 to Carmarthen.
• At Carmarthen take the A40 west towards St Clears, and continue on the A40 to Haverfordwest.
• From Haverfordwest take the A40 towards Fishguard for 9 miles, until you reach Letterston and then TURN LEFT onto the B4331, sign posted for Mathry.
• Continue for 5 miles, until the B road meets at a junction with the A487; the Fishguard to St Davids road.
• Cross over the A487, and then turn IMMEDIATELY right down a single-track lane – CAUTION drive slowly down this narrow and twisty road! We are the first place you come to on the left, about 2/3 of a mile down the lane (ignore any other earlier farm tracks!). For the campsite take the first entrance on the left, for the eco barn take the second entrance on the left, and for the courtyard cottages, take the third exit on the left.

By Train

Local Train Stations

Our nearest train station is “Fishguard and Goodwick” which is just 5 miles away or a 10-minute drive. From here, you can take a taxi or a local bus which will drop you at the end of our lane one mile away.

The other local station is Haverfordwest which is 15 miles away. Taxis are available from here to transfer you to the Preseli Eco Barn and Courtyard Cottages.

We would always recommend travelling into ‘Fishguard and Goodwick’ whenever possible as it’s much closer, but trains only run 5 times each day to this station, so sometimes you may need to use Haverfordwest. To avoid any confusion with your return or round trip tickets, we can confirm that tickets for ‘Fishguard and Goodwick’ and Haverfordwest are interchangeable, so you can arrive into either station and depart from either station and your ticket is valid.

By Bus

The eco barn is just 5 minutes walk down our narrow lane from the main coastal road the A487 and Mathry village just 15 minutes walk. The local bus service the T11 runs between Fishguard and St David’s so this service can be used to access the lodge, getting off at Mathry junction or Mathry village. For people travelling from further away in Wales, take the T5 long distance bus to Fishguard and then transfer onto the T11 to reach Mathry and Preseli Venture.
