Full of character and charm set on the edge of a quaint Welsh village, this period cottage is a perfect staycation for families with dogs whatever the time of year.
Surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and woodland, this pretty property is ideal for a family getaway – with your canine companions in tow, of course! Sleeping six across three cosy bedrooms with enough space for up to two dogs, you’ll soon all be ready to get out and explore the stunning Welsh countryside or just enjoy some relaxing change of scenery. Take a trip on the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway (6 miles) where pups get their own ticket, or simply enjoy a day out in the sunny garden with your favourite book.
The property, which sits just 1 mile outside of the village of Pontrobert, is spacious and inviting. The kitchen has a farmhouse style with a beautiful tiled floor and wooden dining table with bench seating, while exposed beams and calming, neutral decor in the lounge beckon you to sink into the sofas in front of the wood burner, the hounds by your feet. Upstairs, the welcoming bedrooms are perfect for a good night’s sleep; wake up refreshed and head to the bathroom for an invigorating shower or a sumptuous bath.
Kids and canines will love Powis Castle (14 miles) where dogs are welcome in the main courtyard all year round and even in the gardens through the winter. Coed y Brenin Forest Park is only 40.5 miles away and offers fantastic walks that the whole family can enjoy, while Snowdonia National Park is 51 miles away if you want to make a true day of it to experience some spectacular scenery. The 480-acre estate at Chirk Castle (28 miles) has a long history of dogs going back to medieval times when the family used to kennel wolf-hounds, so your pups will love sniffing around the grounds.
