Orielton

Pembrokeshire Coast

Outdoor Classroom

Within easy reach of the Centre is a remarkable variety of biological habitats including exposed and sheltered rocky shores, sand dunes and salt marsh as well as ponds, lakes, streams and woodland in the grounds. Geographers take advantage of our proximity to the coast and often study coastal landforms, management and processes. In addition Pembrokeshire is an ideal place to study rivers, hydrology, tourism, rural settlements and urban areas. We are more than happy to take Day Courses for local schools.

FSC Programmes

The simplest and most often cost effective way of conducting fieldwork at an FSC centre is by booking one of our fixed length residential programmes. Find out more about FSC Programmes.
