A POPULAR attraction in the UK is set to reopen it’s US-themed land – after being forced to close two years ago.
Bluestone National Park Resort, a holiday park in Pembrokeshire, is reopening its American-themed Steep Ravine later this week.

Often said to be ‘better value than Center Parcs‘, Steep Ravine was forced to close in 2024 due to damage caused by a storm.
But on May 23, guests will not only be able to step back into the USA, but also experience two new rides.
Returning to the attraction is Camp Smokey, an open-air ‘dining experience’ at the foot of the ravine.
Here, kids can have a barbecue feast, roast marshmallows around the campfire and enjoy a brand-new lunch menu in the great outdoors.
The other returning favourite, Smokey Joe’s Shindig, is back with live entertainment, dancing, music and games as well as barbecue food.
New this year at Steep Ravine are two new high-speed ziplines.
The Summit Flight is an exciting 279metre long zipline suitable for all ages.
But if Summit Flight is a little too daunting then the Double Glide is a good way to ease children in as it has shorter zips designed to build confidence.
Another activity at the Steep Ravine is Wellies in the Wild: Mud Mission where children can dig and take on some mud play.
The guided adventure has hands-on activities, marshmallow toasting, and guests get a tasty Welsh cake to finish.
Camp Smokey and Smokey Joe’s Shindig will reopen from May 23, with the new zip line experiences rolling out initially for guests staying before July 16.
Summer breaks start from £400, based on a four-night stay at a Caldey Lodge arriving on June 8.
The Welsh resort had to close Steep Ravine at the end of 2024 following severe storm damage, since then work has been ongoing to restore the site.
James McNamara, Director of Product and Programme Development at Bluestone said: “Steep Ravine has always been about bringing people together outdoors – whether that’s around the campfire at Camp Smokey or experiencing the adventure of the Ravine itself.
“We’re excited to welcome guests back this month and reopen a place that means so much to so many people.”
