Bodnant Garden is an 80-acre Grade I listed historic garden on the slopes of Snowdonia, created over 150 years. The formal Victorian East Garden features a Round Garden, Parterre and famous Laburnum Arch. Edwardian Italianate Terraces descend with rose beds, pools and pergola garden rooms. Beyond the formal gardens lie meadows, woodland walks through The Dell among magnolias, rhododendrons and rare Champion Trees, plus water gardens and garden architecture including an 18th-century Pin Mill. The Rose Walk offers a 1.5km accessible route avoiding steps. There's a play park in the car park and a natural play zone at the Far End with a willow maze and den building. The Pavilion and Magnolia tea-rooms serve food, with a Dell Kiosk for takeaway refreshments. Dogs on short leads are welcome on Thursdays to Sundays from April to September.
From 1 April to 30 September, dogs on short leads (not extendable) are welcome in the garden every Thursday to Sunday inclusive. From 1 October to 31 March, dogs are welcome every day.
