We have just returned from a lovely weekend at Bluestone. The lodge was clean, well equiped and we had a fabulous view over the lake. Once the barrier was down, we didn't see any cars on site. Initially, we were a little disappointed to find that we didn't have any details in our lodge about the opening times of the places to eat and only after we had walked down to Camp Smokey that we found out it was only open for 2 hours during our whole stay! We were able get the list of opening times from the Village centre
The nature trails were excellent, albeit very muddy, which did add to the fun.
We didn't visit the blue lagoon, choosing instead to spend our days at the fabulous beaches in the area. This is where the biggest difference with CP lays - rather than lots of organised activites, Bluestone can not be visited without making the most of the amazing Welsh Coastline, and so wall to wall activities aren't required!
Saying that our son loved the sky ropes in the adventure centre and the 4x4 driving will be on our to do list next time.
Overall, we would recommend Bluestone. its a family friendly base to spend some time in a tranquil environment...and build the odd sandcastle...perfect!
