Majestic Bus

Whitney-on-Wye - Chalet

A lovingly converted Bedford Panoramic Bus tucked into a garden riotous with flowers near Hay-on-Wye, and enjoying sweeping panoramic views over the Herefordshire countryside. Nothing but rolling, green hills as far as the eye can see.

The bus has a beautiful wooden floor, painted pine boarding and a well thought-out dining/kitchen area with hand-built units, oak worktops, a gas cooker and a fridge. At the back is a cosy double bed and a wood-burning stove placed on an old flagstone. An L-shaped sofa seat folds into a further double bed. Solar panels on the roof power the lights and a socket to charge phones, laptops etc.

Outside is a decked area on two levels, a fire-pit on which you can cook in the open air and two level platforms. These can act as tent-pitch areas, able to accommodate up to a further four guests if your party is larger, or which could be used simply as places to relax, take in the view or enjoy a picnic. There is also a luxury Swedish wood fired hot tub for up to 5 people. Easy to use with its brilliant economical side loading integral wood burner.
Set in a perfect position to enjoy the beautiful surroundings where you can look at the stars and share the nights with the bats and the owls.

A few metres away lies a purpose built wooden bath house, containing a flush toilet and a luxurious roll-top bath with shower above. A second wood-burner is installed for those chillier nights and the room comes complete with tea-light candles for the ultimate romantic bath experience.


Set on the edge of the Radnorshire Hills 5.5 miles away from the famous book town of Hay-on-Wye, the area is completely unspoilt. Wild and open hills contrast with wooden valleys and green pastureland. Wildlife is abundant and a myriad of footpaths and quiet country lanes link everything together. The well-trodden Offa's Dyke footpath lies just a few fields away from the door.

Hay-on-Wye itself is a small, historic market town with a huge amount of character. Apart from the second-hand bookshops and the world-renowned literary festival (end of May annually) for which it is famed, it also has a good selection of independent gift & craft shops, galleries, pubs, cafes and an art-house cinema.

As the towns' name suggests, it lies on the banks of the River Wye and just a stones throw from the main car park, it is possible to walk along the Bailey Riverside walk to The Warren, the towns own conservation area, with picturesque beach.

In addition to the annual Hay Festival, the town has a range of events, including a summer and Christmas food festival, a Festival of British Cinema (September annually) a Walking Festival (October annually) and many colourful arts and cultural events hosted by the Globe at Hay.

For outdoor pursuit enthusiasts the Hay-on-Wye area is a haven, offering canoeing on the River Wye, open-hill horse riding and pony trekking, hiking, mountain biking, fishing and even free tennis courts in Hay.

There are a wealth of local companies specialising in all of these activities, who can tailor packages to suit all range of abilities and interests. The Brecon Beacons National Park and the Brecon to Monmouth Canal are half an hour drive away. The local vicinity also offers a plethora of ancient monuments, castles, country houses and pretty towns and villages to visit.
