Welcome to the Castaway Fleet
Hidden in the tranquil Llanthony Valley on the edge of the Brecon Beacons, Llanthony Castaway offers three unique glamping experiences – The Hatterall Hut, The Dome and The Railway Carriage. Each stay brings a different way to relax, explore and reconnect with nature, making them perfect for romantic breaks, creative retreats, or peaceful escapes from everyday life.
1. The Hatterall Hut – Cozy Off-Grid Escape
The newest addition to the Castaway collection, The Hatterall Hut is designed for simplicity, comfort, and quiet moments. Nestled into the landscape, the Hut offers a beautiful, peaceful space for guests who want a slower pace and open views across rolling fields. There is a private hot tub for your sole use, perfect to relax and unwind.
Ideal for couples or solo travellers who want to unplug, parents looking for that unique 1-2-1 time with their child, or creatives looking for that space to let new ideas unfold. This space blends rustic charm with Castaway comfort. You’ll feel tucked into nature, yet well cared for – the perfect formula for total rest and reconnection.
