If you couldn’t enjoy a reunion of family or friends without the company of your favourite pets then this property is the one for you. Hosting a mighty 20 guests and welcoming four pups with just as much gusto, you really will find something for everyone when staying here. Be sure to keep a close eye on the pups when staying on this impressive 30-acre estate – there’s a variety of animals including pygmy goats, alpacas, ponies, pigs, and sheep to meet within the grounds of the property. The enclosed paddock offers plenty of safe space to exercise your four-pawed pals before enjoying a well-earned drink on the wraparound patio.

Presenting ample space both inside and out, you’re certain to find something to go mutts for when staying here. As you enter, you’re greeted by five ground-floor en-suite bedrooms, each furnished with two super-king-size zip-and-link beds (which can be made into twins on request). Let the dogs curl up in the corner whilst you drift off and dream of outdoor adventures yet to come. Heading up to the first floor via the stairs or electric lift, you’ll find an open-plan space, including a kitchen/diner with a large, refectory-style table, and a generous lounge with Juliet balcony.

Head out on an adventure in surrounding Powys, packing up all of the much-needed treats for a day of interesting dog walks. Head to Newton (3 miles) to explore a calming route along the River Severn or to Welshpool (11.5 miles) to embark on a trip along the Montgomery Canal. A local attraction, also accessible from this nearby town, is the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway. Perfect for a sunny afternoon, this excursion is always pup-friendly and will ferry you through mid-Wales rolling hills and along to the smaller town of Llanfair Caereinion (8 miles).

The owner of the property had great communication and was quick to respond to any queries and was very helpful. The property was well planned out and stocked with everything needed. Liked the fact that there was a lot of outdoor space and was all fenced off to make the area safe for the children to play in. Great choice of games for both childreRead moren and adults to play.

We booked Highgate Barnhouse for a stag do weekend and it was excellent. The owner was lovely and everything was exactly as advertised. Plenty of room for us all and we had a lovely meal at the local pub. One thing we did miss was oven gloves and tea towels (and we also ran out of toilet roll!) but this was clearly noted on the listing so just makeRead more sure you double check what is included and what isn't! It just meant we needed to go to the shop, which isnt far away, so it wasn't a massive deal. Hide
