Construction is underway on 17 new luxury coastal lodges at Dylan Coastal Resort in West Wales, marking the final residential release at the flagship destination. Priced from £375,000 to £1.25 million, The Cliffside Collection will combine contemporary architecture, private outdoor living and five-star resort facilities, with completion scheduled for February 2027.
Luxury Lodges has commenced construction on The Cliffside Collection, the third and final release of holiday residences at its Dylan Coastal Resort in Laugharne, West Wales.
The development comprises 17 new lodges with a combined gross development value (GDV) of £12 million. Off-plan sales launched in April 2026, with several properties already sold, according to the developer.
Set within a 30-acre coastal resort overlooking the Taf Estuary, the collection follows the reported sell-out of the destination’s earlier residential phases.

Construction Begins on the Final Collection
The start of construction marks a significant milestone for Luxury Lodges, the family-run developer behind a portfolio of coastal and countryside destinations across the UK.
Scheduled for completion in February 2027, The Cliffside Collection will be delivered alongside new community infrastructure and a show lodge, which the developer expects to unveil early next year.
The latest release has been designed to take advantage of its elevated coastal setting, with contemporary architecture, expansive glazing and private outdoor spaces connecting the residences to the surrounding landscape.
Jack Hurley, Commercial Director at Luxury Lodges, commented on the development’s progress:
“Commencing construction at The Cliffside Collection is a big milestone for Dylan Coastal Resort. With all earlier phases now sold out, anticipation is building for this final premium phase. The Cliffside Collection has been very well received so far, with several lodges already sold off plan, so we’re looking forward to seeing construction take shape over the coming months and to delivering a really special show lodge early next year.”

Inside The Cliffside Collection: Four Luxury Residence Styles
Prospective buyers can choose from four distinct lodge designs, ranging from two to four bedrooms.
Each has been conceived around indoor-outdoor living, incorporating landscaped gardens, private terraces and extensive glazing to make the most of the coastal surroundings.
The Boathouse: £1.25 Million
Positioned at the top of the collection, The Boathouse is the most expensive residence offered within the Luxury Lodges portfolio.
Available with three or four bedrooms, the flagship design features floor-to-ceiling glazing, an expansive terrace, private enclosed garden, swim spa and outdoor sauna.
The residence is designed to maximise views across the Taf Estuary, combining private leisure facilities with contemporary interior finishes.
The Odyssey: £850,000
Available with two or three bedrooms, The Odyssey offers spacious open-plan interiors and a private terrace.
An outdoor sauna and hot tub extend the living space beyond the main accommodation, providing opportunities for relaxation throughout the seasons.
Owners of both The Boathouse and The Odyssey will also receive a Big Green Egg Modular Nest outdoor cooking setup as part of their ownership package, following a partnership between Luxury Lodges and the outdoor cooking brand.
The Lookout: £595,000
The Lookout takes its inspiration from the surrounding coastal landscape, with extensive glazing designed to capture natural light and views across the resort.
Available in two and three-bedroom configurations, the property features contemporary interiors and a private terrace complete with a hot tub.
The Verse: £375,000
The Verse provides the entry point to The Cliffside Collection, with two and three-bedroom options available.
The design incorporates airy, open-plan living spaces, modern finishes and a private outdoor terrace with a hot tub, creating a more compact coastal retreat within the wider resort.
All prices are advertised guide prices and are subject to availability.
Five-Star Facilities at Milk Wood House
Beyond the residences, owners have access to the leisure and hospitality facilities at Milk Wood House, the resort’s central destination for wellness and dining.
Milk Wood Spa offers an extensive collection of facilities, including an infinity pool, Technogym-equipped fitness space, treatment rooms, saunas, herbal steam rooms, outdoor hydrotherapy pool and tepidarium.
The facilities are intended to provide owners with a hotel-style wellness experience while retaining the independence and privacy of their own holiday residence.
Milk Wood House is also home to the resort’s bar and restaurant, with dining terraces overlooking the estuary.
A New Italian Dining Experience Arrives in November
The latest phase of development coincides with further investment in the resort’s hospitality offering.
Luxury Lodges has announced that Milk Wood Bar & Kitchen is being transformed into an Italian dining destination, introducing a new culinary direction for both owners and visiting guests.
Led by newly appointed Restaurant Manager Graziano Starita and Head Chef Francesco Trovero, the restaurant will focus on traditional Italian dishes, including handmade pasta prepared in-house and bespoke wood-fired pizzas made fresh to order.
The new menu is scheduled to launch on 7 November 2026.
The transformation forms part of the developer’s wider plans to enhance the resort experience, complementing the existing accommodation, wellness and leisure facilities.
A Coastal Retreat in Dylan Thomas Country
Located in Laugharne, Dylan Coastal Resort occupies a distinctive stretch of the West Wales coastline overlooking the Taf Estuary.
The area is closely associated with Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, whose former boathouse remains one of the town’s best-known landmarks.
Beyond Laugharne, the resort provides a base from which to explore the surrounding coastline and countryside, including Pembrokeshire, Tenby, Saundersfoot and the Gower Peninsula.
For owners, this location offers a combination of countryside seclusion, coastal scenery and access to some of Wales’s most recognised destinations.
Luxury Lodges also offers managed holiday letting arrangements for owners seeking to generate income when not using their residences themselves.
However, prospective purchasers should review the relevant ownership arrangements, permitted holiday use, ongoing charges and any projected rental returns before committing to a purchase.
The Love Lux Life View
The Cliffside Collection reflects an approach to luxury holiday-home ownership where the wider experience is as important as the residence itself.
Private gardens, outdoor saunas and extensive coastal views provide an attractive setting, but the additional access to wellness, dining and leisure facilities is what distinguishes the development from a more conventional holiday retreat.
The four residence styles also offer different levels of accommodation and private amenities, from The Verse at £375,000 to the £1.25 million Boathouse.
For buyers considering a holiday residence rather than a permanent home, the combination of privacy, resort services and the natural surroundings of West Wales presents an interesting proposition.
With construction progressing towards February 2027, The Cliffside Collection marks the final residential release at a coastal destination that continues to evolve.
Further information, residence specifications and availability are available through Luxury Lodges’ official Dylan Coastal Resort website.
