Pembrokeshire School Residentials, Scout Camps & Family Adventure Breaks
Stay together at Dewslake Farm near Lamphey and build a complete Pembrokeshire outdoor programme with Outer Reef — surfing, coasteering, kayaking, paddle boarding and coastal learning.
This partnership is especially strong for schools and Scout groups who need a spacious, practical base with multiple accommodation options and professionally guided activities nearby.

We can shape a day trip, weekend or residential-style camp around your group and the coastal conditions.
Turn Pembrokeshire Into Your Outdoor Classroom
A residential should give pupils more than a change of scenery. It should create challenge, confidence, teamwork, independence and memorable shared experiences.

How A 5-Day Pembrokeshire Residential Could Work
The exact order stays flexible because coastal activities need to work with tides, sea state, weather and the group.

Multi-Generational Trips

Campfires, Woodland, Café Stops & Time To Unwind

A Useful Extra For Busy Group Days
Dewslake’s on-site café gives teachers, leaders and families an easy place for coffee, food and a little downtime between adventures.
