Pets

Are Pets Welcome?

The first time Gandalf stayed at Lothlorien Cottage he did bring a Welsh Dragon along.

Normally however, we prefer guests to keep their dragons on the Black Mountain which is very close and convenient for dragons*.

However, if you are travelling with a well-behaved dog (or two), please let us know.

As long as you take responsibility for their good behaviour, and we are warned in advance, they are welcome.

*(There are plenty of caves in the Black Mountain so dragons do very well there, and they usually get on very well with the dinosaurs in the nearby Dinosaur Park.)

 
Bird Watching in Wales

Wales with its diverse and beautiful landscape is a bird-watchers paradise.
