The Passmore family has been farming since the 1600s, moving over generations before settling here in Llanthony 45 years ago, when my grandfather began buying sheep at Brecon market.

My parents, Colin & Cordelia, live in the main house and run the camping & bunkhouse.  Having handed the farming reins over to me, my Dad still spends time on the farm and also helping my sister Annabel and her husband Jamie, who have recently taken over the Llanthony Priory.

The Llanthony Priory is well worth a visit during your stay at Castaway – with delicious homemade meals and locally sourced drinks served at the bar, set within the Priory’s unique and historic surroundings
