Notes to Editors

Milford Waterfront

Milford Waterfront is a multi-million pound regeneration project being led by the Port of Milford Haven. It aims to continue to develop the area which is home to Milford Marina and Milford Fish Docks into a vibrant destination, adding to the existing mix of leisure, retail and dining businesses and boosting the economy by providing long term, sustainable jobs.

A number of flagship projects have already been completed at the site including the opening of four custom-built Floatel Cabins, which offer a restful retreat for visitors looking for a unique glamping experience. And in April 2022 the new 100 bedroom Tŷ Hotel operated by the Celtic Collection opened and we hope more visitors will stay and experience all of the new and existing attractions here at Pembrokeshire’s hidden gem.

The development will also celebrate the arts, culture and heritage of the area, working in partnership with key stakeholders. The Port already hosts a busy calendar of events at Milford Waterfront working with partners including Milford Haven Round Table to deliver events including Milford Haven Carnival, Milford Haven Beer Festival and Milford Haven Fireworks Display, as well as  other food and cultural festivals. More information can be found on the What’s On page.
