Hike up mountains and follow forest routes from this impressive stone retreat in North Wales. Sleeping eight human guests, the handsome four-bedroom property is set in picturesque, riverside surroundings, 150 metres from Ganllwyd and 6 miles from Dolgellau in Eryri, also known as Snowdonia. With a gorgeous garden and two roaring wood burners, it is perfect for larger, pet-loving parties.

Step inside to find rustic stone and timberwork, together with exquisitely finished rooms . Enter via the hall, where there is a dining table and access to a WC. Call your chum into the utility room to rub him down and pop his towel straight into the machine. Wander through to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with its wonderful vaulted ceiling, to stoke up the wood burner. Let your pal warm his paws as he awaits his dinner and you chat to the chef from the comfort of the sofa. Open the doors to the garden in here on fine days. While away your evenings together through in the beautiful, beamed lounge, where another wood burner sits inside a great inglenook fireplace. There is a Smart TV here and in the main living area. Bid your contented canine goodnight and head upstairs to your own enticing bedrooms. These include two king-sizes, one of which has a Smart TV, plus a double and a twin, all with glorious rural outlooks. The family shower room is also here. Play fetch with your delighted dog out in the lawned garden. Light the BBQ and the fire pit on summer evenings. There is parking for four cars.
