Myself, my husband and our two (medium-sized) dogs had a fantastic time at Meirion House! There was plenty of space for all of us (though it is worth noting that the owners prefer no dogs on the furniture or upstairs), and the garden is pretty secure. However, the side entrance gate could easily be cleared by a relatively athletic dog if they were Read moreminded to (we blocked the alleyway off with a couple of wheelie bins to be on the safe side).

Meirion House was welcoming, warm and cozy. All the rooms were clean and comfortable and well equipped. The utility area was perfect for towel drying the dog after a long walk and swim. The garden was a good size and dog friendly as it was safe and secure. The welcome pack was a lovely touch and thoughtful, and also included doggy treats.

This is a beautiful clean cozy cottage. Set in a very nice little village near some amazing walks/views. The garden is stunning. Ideal for 4 people. The welcome pack was a treat. Breakfast / lunch at the cafe over the road is gorgeous. Loved staying here and highly recommend it to anyone. Road parking is not a problem there is plenty of space.

Great to have an enclosed garden for travelling with our dog. Waterfall walk nearby was spectacular. Handy location for visiting attractions in the area. The cottage itself is small but well equipped. This was our second visit and we plan to return. The low doorways and steep stairs were a bit of a challenge for my 6'7" tall husband but other featuRead moreres compensate for that. Hide

This cottage was truly lovely! It was clean, cozy and definitely had a homely feel. We had a chance to meet the owner who kindly provided electric fans as we stayed during the unexpected heatwave! Not only was this appreciated, it was very thoughtful and you also got a sense of this throughout the cottage. The location was great, with an easy driveRead more to several attractions. We will definitely be visiting Meirion House again! Hide
