About Dreamcatcher Wagon

Dreamcatcher Wagon is a rustic shepherd's hut tucked away in the Black Mountains near Hay-On-Wye, Brecon Beacons. This off-grid hideaway sits on a 17-acre farm with horses, donkeys and chickens. Complete privacy and stunning mountain views make this spot perfect for those wanting to escape the daily grind. The arched-roof wagon offers a back-to-basics experience that's surprisingly liberating.

The location is truly spectacular. You'll have fields and streams to explore, with the Black Mountains as your backdrop. Stargazing opportunities are incredible - especially from the wood-fired hot tub! Hay-on-Wye is just 25 minutes away with its famous bookshops and literary festival. The Bulls Head pub is only 1.5 miles from your door - their food is brilliant after a day of hiking.

The wagon itself is cosy but well-equipped with a gas oven, hob, cool store and wood burner. Outside you'll find a gas-powered hot shower and eco compost loo. Solar panels provide minimal electricity - no phone charging here! Think of it as digital detox with benefits. The hot tub takes a bit of effort to heat up, but trust me, soaking under the stars with a glass of wine makes it worth the wait.

For day trips, visit Hay-on-Wye (25 mins), hike Pen-y-Fan (45 mins), ride the Brecon Beacons Mountain Railway (40 mins), or explore Big Pit Mining Museum (50 mins). You can even book a private donkey trek with the owner for an extra cost - how's that for a unique date activity?

Dreamcatcher Wagon is ideal for couples wanting to reconnect without distractions. Dogs are welcome too - they'll love the freedom to roam. The hot tub seals the deal for romantic evenings. Just bring a power bank for emergencies and prepare to fall in love with simple living.

Is Dreamcatcher Wagon Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families

For Couples
Dreamcatcher Wagon is perfect for couples seeking genuine connection. The complete privacy, wood-fired hot tub under starry skies and cosy interior create natural romance. Cook together on the gas stove or fire pit, then snuggle by the wood burner. The lack of electricity means no digital distractions – just you two in a beautiful mountain setting.
Pet Friendly
Dogs will love the freedom at Dreamcatcher Wagon. The 17-acre farm offers plenty of space to run and explore safely. Two dogs are welcome with a £20 charge per dog per week.

Dreamcatcher Wagon Reviews

Emily
Honestly, staying in the Dreamcatcher wagon was such a cool experience! Being off-grid felt surprisingly freeingand we loved how close we were to those incredible views - totally breathtaking. The hot tub was a real treat, especially under the night sky. We brought our dog alongand he had a great time too. It's a truly special getaway spot that's different from anything else out there. We'll definitely be coming back!
Samuel
We spent a couple of nights here and really enjoyed our stay. The wagon is such a charming little spot-very cosy and peaceful, perfect for unwinding. We loved exploring Hay-on-Wye, which is just a 25-minute driveand spent a lovely day at the Brecon Beacons waterfalls, about an hour away. The location's fantastic and we'd definitely recommend it for a relaxing break!
Michael
Cozy rural retreat, perfect for a short escape
Emma Parker
Really peaceful spot, perfect for unwinding. The hot tub was fantastic, just watch out for how long it takes to heat up - water's colder than you think! Staff greeted us warmlyand the view of Black Mountain was gorgeous.
Oliver
We had such a lovely stay! The secluded spot really made us feel like we had the place to ourselves, which was perfect for some peace and quiet. The wagon surprisingly had a good amount of spaceand the cosy vibe was just right. The hot tub was a real highlight, especially under a clear sky. The detached shower and compost toilet gave it that rustic charmand the warm shower was a bonus. Exploring the surrounding fields and streams was a delight. Hay-On-Wye is a must-visit for book lovers. Thanks so much for having us!
Emma
Our stay at the Dreamcatcher wagon was fantastic! The setting is truly enchanting and peaceful, perfect for relaxing. The wagon itself had all we neededand Sue and John were lovely hosts-really attentive without being overbearing. We're already planning our next visit!
Sam
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was incredibly relaxing and really secluded, which was just what we needed. The wagon and the whole area are so well thought out. The hosts provided towels, logsand kindling with an honesty box, which was great, plus some books and games to keep us entertained. The gas-powered shower was nice and hotand we loved using the gas hob and grill. The hosts were super helpful. It was lovely to have the field available for our dogs, even though it's not totally enclosed since the horses roam in a separate area, so having long lines was useful if your dog likes to wander off. We're definitely planning to stay again in the future!
