Wannabe mountain dogs take note – this gorgeous farmhouse in West Wales is right near the top of the 408 m Llanllwni peak. The remote property also overlooks the wonderful Brechfa Forest, so as you can imagine, the walks and the views are truly spectacular. It welcomes up to five humans and an unlimited number of dogs, so your pets could easily outnumber you for a big furry party. Now that’s what we call dog-tastic! With its large enclosed garden and adjacent farming field, there’s ample opportunity for your pets to let off steam and for you to kick back in the gorgeous surroundings.

Enter into the foyer where you can store your coats and shoes and brush off any muddy paws. The welcoming lounge is a glorious place to relax with fellow guests and has a wood burner which tired pets will likely gravitate towards. Stretch out on the sofa and pop on the Smart TV for some entertainment while your pets doze contentedly on the rug. In the sunroom, soak up the fantastic views and catch up on some reading with a hot cuppa. The beautiful kitchen has appealing light blue units, a large wooden dining table for the humans, and plenty of floor space for the dogs’ water and food bowls. Outside, you’ll have a lawned space where the dogs can run free while you sizzle up some treats on the BBQ (extra sausages for the dogs, please!).

You can take the pets (on leads) for a tour of the surrounding open fields, along forest trails or through the nearby cemetery (150 m), all accessible without needing your car. The nearest amenities (shops, restaurants and pubs) are 6 miles away in Brechfa village. Brecon Beacons National Park starts just 19 miles away – more opportunities for excellent walkies – or you can head to the sea at Llangrannog (22.5 miles), whose spectacular sandy beach is dog-friendly all year round.

Stayed here over new year for some peace and quiet and to get the dogs away from the fireworks, it did not disappoint! Such a peaceful location with beautiful scenery. The dogs were in heaven in the garden and even our escape artist terrier could not find a way out.

Just returned from a week at this beautiful cottage. Absolutely perfect for our family and four dogs. The cottage is so cozy and well equipped.

What a fabulous retreat with friendly welcoming host James. 4 adults and 2 lurchers thoroughly enjoyed the house which was spacious and comfortable. One of our lurchers loved to run halfway down the stairs , wait on the landing (making sure everyone on the sofa was watching), then descend at great speed down the rest of the stairs! The tiered gardeRead moren and the wooded paddock were very popular with us all. Fences were absolutely secure, so we did not worry about possible escapees. Hide

This is just a lovely place to stay. Off the beaten track with good views and alive with birds. The house is spacious and comfy. Kitchen and linens etc all good spec. Interesting books. Best for us and the dogs was the field with the wooded part that they could snuffle around in. And the sunset over the hills from the top corner.

One of the best holidays weve had with 4 chihuahuas and a labradoodle. Accommodation is top notch and in a really lovely quiet place. The garden is great for dogs and the paddock is a real bonus. Theres a lovely walk just 10 mins drive away where you can let dogs off the lead.
