Blaenavon | UNESCO Countryside Wellness Escape | Pool, Sauna, Ice Bath
✨ Welcome to The Retreat at Little Oaks
Reset in nature and breathe deep.
Your thoughtfully designed eco–wellness retreat awaits in Blaenavon’s UNESCO World Heritage town, on the edge of the Brecon Beacons.
Here, woodland tranquillity, world-class wellness facilities, and warm Welsh hospitality combine to create a countryside escape like no other.
👬 Your Hosts
We’re Mark & Andy, and our aim is to make your stay both relaxing and memorable.
At The Retreat at Little Oaks, we balance the warmth of a personal welcome with the care and detail of a luxury escape.
Inclusivity and belonging are central to our ethos, and every guest is valued.
Whether you’d like tailored recommendations and insider tips, or prefer the privacy of a quiet retreat, we’ll adapt the experience to suit you.
🛏 Your Stay
Wake to birdsong and views of the rolling Welsh mountainside. Your Deluxe Double Room is a calm and welcoming space designed for complete comfort after a day of wellness and exploration.
You’ll enjoy:
• A king-size bed with crisp linens
• A private bathroom with both shower and bath, plus complimentary toiletries
• Tea and coffee facilities for quiet moments
• Smart TV with SKY and Netflix for evenings in
• Window overlooking the Rest & Relaxation Patio with wonderful mountain views
• A few surprise Welsh snacks and treats in your room to make you feel at home
It’s your perfect base for a restorative countryside escape.
🌿 Rest & Relaxation Patio
The heart of the retreat is our spacious Rest & Relaxation Patio, a place to swim, lounge, and share moments under the Welsh sky.
Here you’ll find:
• Outdoor swimming pool (heated in Summer months)
• Wood-fired sauna
• Invigorating ice bath
• Sun loungers and cabana
• BBQ and pizza oven for relaxed outdoor dining under the pergola
• Heated gazebo bar for cosy evenings with drinks, whatever the weather
This is where your rhythm slows: swim, heat, cool, rest, repeat.
💆 Wellness Suite
Sink into calm with treatments designed to restore both body and mind.
In our Wellness Suite, Mark, a Master Body Control Pilates teacher and highly qualified wellness specialist, offers:
• Matwork Pilates focusing on core strength, alignment, and mindful movement.
Suitable for all levels, matwork builds resilience and balance, leaving you feeling longer, stronger, and more centred.
• Equipment Pilates (Reformer, Cadillac and Barrel) to build strength, improve posture, and increase flexibility.
Ideal for anyone seeking a deeper, more supported practice with expert guidance.
• Pre and Post Natal Pilates, specially designed for new and expectant mothers.
These sessions support your body during and after pregnancy. Mark is fully certified to teach safe, effective exercises that enhance mobility, reduce discomfort, and promote recovery.
• Upledger Craniosacral Therapy, a gentle, hands-on treatment that works with the body’s natural rhythms to release tension and support overall wellbeing.
Using light touch, Mark helps the body to relax and rebalance, which may ease stress, improve sleep, and support recovery from pain or long-term conditions. Suitable for all ages.
• Structural Integration, a comprehensive 12-session programme designed to realign the body, release chronic tension, and restore natural movement.
Each session lasts 90 minutes, with a full series recommended for long-term transformation.
• Oncology Massage, a supportive massage therapy tailored for those living with or recovering from cancer.
Gentle, nurturing techniques are used to ease pain, reduce stress, and promote comfort and wellbeing.
• Sports Massage, designed for athletes and active guests, sports massage targets muscle tension, enhances recovery, and helps prevent injury.
Ideal pre- or post-activity to keep your body performing at its best.
• Scarwork Therapy, a highly specialised treatment aimed at improving the health and feel of scar tissue.
Gentle techniques soften and integrate scars, helping restore ease of movement and comfort.
• Back Pain and Hypermobility Treatment. Mark is a Level 4 Specialist Instructor and BackCare Professional, certified in managing back pain and hypermobility.
Sessions are designed to reduce discomfort, improve stability, and support long-term spinal health.
Mark also trains other Pilates teachers on Body Control’s Hypermobility course.
So, whether you’re here for movement, stillness, or both, this is where wellness becomes personal.
🌍 Eco by Design
Every stay supports the planet as well as your wellbeing. From our solar-powered pool heating to rainwater-fed ice baths, from sustainably sourced wood to low-impact design, every detail is chosen to care for the earth as much as our guests.
🍷 A Taste of Wales
Sip, savour, and discover the flavours of Wales. All of our wines and spirits are award-winning or Great Taste accredited, from White Castle Vineyard wines just 9 miles away, to small-batch spirits from Barry Island Spirits Co and locally brewed beers.
The only exception, of course, is Champagne, because sometimes only Champagne will do. 🥂
By choosing local first, we reduce wine miles, support Welsh producers, and ensure every glass tells a story of Wales.
🚶 Explore Blaenavon & Beyond
Step outside and discover where heritage, nature, and culture meet. On your doorstep you’ll find:
• Blaenavon Big Pit National Coal Museum, part of the UNESCO World Heritage landscape
• Blaenavon Heritage Steam Railway: step back in time with a scenic ride through the valleys
• Blaenavon Ironworks, a dramatic reminder of Wales’ industrial past
• Keeper’s Pond, perfect for wild swims and breathtaking mountain views
• Bannau Brycheiniog / Brecon Beacons National Park: endless walking trails, dark skies, and sweeping scenery
• Annual events including the Green Man Festival and the Abergavenny Food Festival

Über den Gastgeber
Zu Gast bei Andy Parfitt Jones
We’re Andy and Mark, your hosts at The Retreat at Little Oaks. After long careers in different fields, we followed our passion to create a place where people can relax, recharge, and enjoy the best of Wales. Mark is a wellness specialist with decades of experience in Pilates, craniosacral therapy, and structural integration, while Andy brings a love of hospitality, local culture, and sustainability.
We live here in Blaenavon, a UNESCO World Heritage town surrounded by beautiful woodland and the Brecon Beacons. We enjoy walking the local trails with our Alaskan Malamute named Chewey, discovering Welsh food and wine, and welcoming guests who want to experience the area’s history, nature, and tranquility. Hosting is our way of sharing both our home and our ethos of wellness and care for the environment.
We look forward to welcoming you, whether you’re here to relax by the pool, book a wellness treatment, or explore the heritage of Wales.

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft
✨ We chose this place so you could experience its magic.
Blaenavon is a town with a soul, celebrated by UNESCO for its role in shaping the modern world. At the same time, it is surrounded by wild hills, ancient woodland, and the gateway to the Brecon Beacons National Park. Few places blend heritage and nature so seamlessly, and that is why we knew this was the perfect setting for The Retreat at Little Oaks.
The woodland around us creates a natural haven, alive with birdsong, wildlife, and seasonal colour. Step outside and you are immediately connected to trails, panoramic mountain views, and skies so dark they are filled with stars. It is the kind of environment that restores you without effort; peaceful, grounding, and timeless.
Equally, the history here is extraordinary. Guests can visit Big Pit National Coal Museum, Blaenavon Ironworks, Blaenavon Heritage Steam Railway or the town’s many heritage landmarks, all within minutes of the retreat. This area’s industrial past is not just history, it is part of a living story that shaped communities and landscapes across the world. Experiencing that heritage alongside today’s natural beauty makes Blaenavon a destination unlike any other.
We also wanted to celebrate the culture of Wales, and one way we do that is through our curated list of award-winning Welsh wines and spirits. White Castle Vineyard, just nine miles away, produces internationally acclaimed bottles, while Barry Island Spirits Co brings creativity and local flavour. By sharing these with our guests, we connect you not only to the land but also to the makers who carry its traditions forward.
We created The Retreat at Little Oaks to bring all these elements together: the tranquillity of nature, the inspiration of history, the taste of Wales, and the power of wellness.
