Boasting views that will take your breath away, this incredible holiday home is a wonderful base for adventure in the heart of Snowdonia National Park. An outdoor activity–filled stay wouldn’t be the same without your bold-spirited four-pawed pals, so this handsome abode welcomes up to three canine companions alongside six human guests. Set tails wagging as you explore the magnificent Slate Trail on the doorstep, an 83-mile route that traces the history of the slate industry through North Wales’ enviable national park. Let Fido lead the way as you pass through majestic forests and striking mountain landscapes, searching for the perfect stick or sniffing out endless Welsh wildlife.

Spacious and stylish, with mid-century-inspired interiors, this attractive holiday home is sure to impress. Hear the patter of paws on hardwood floors as you explore the ground floor, a generous level featuring a dining room, lounge and kitchen that flow seamlessly together. Get cosy by the wood burner, listening to the gentle hum of Rover’s breath as they drift off and dream of Eryri adventures. Upstairs, three elegant bedrooms boast incredible views to wake up to, all served by a family bathroom. Outside, along with private parking for one car, discover a large, enclosed garden with lawn space for pets to play and sweeping vistas of the surrounding hills.

Let Rover roam through the mighty countryside that surrounds the property, exploring mystical woodlands and winding country lanes with ease. Venture to Betws-y-Coed (7.5 miles), a pretty village wrapped in the leafy trails of Gwydir Forest Park. Around 10 miles away, discover Blaenau Ffestiniog, an adventure-filled town at the centre of it all. Home to the idyllic waterfalls and a welcoming town centre with pet-friendly pubs and cafés, it’s an excellent choice for slow dog walks and peaceful, meandering days.

We had a lovely weekend here with our dogs, and it fitted our needs perfectly. There's not much in the way of restaurants or shops nearby, but the owners have a really handy little information book with the best places to go and shops that will deliver to the house. There are baby gates on the stairs that we found really useful too. Everything waRead mores super clean and there were plenty of extra towels if needed. The garden is a good size, the only thing I'd say is just be aware that there are sometimes sheep in the field directly behind the property, and the fences aren't that high, so if you have dogs with a high hunting instinct, you may have to keep an eye on them. All in all we had a great time, and the owners are lovely:) Hide
