About K9 Walled Garden K9 Walled Garden is exactly that: a walled garden of just over an acre in the grounds of Plas Coch at The Roe, St Asaph, booked for exclusive use. A wall all round and a double-gated entrance mean dogs cannot slip through a fence line, which makes it reassuring for escape artists. Bookings start from 7am, with the last ones in the evening. Puppy socialising events are held most months, and block bookings are available for regular visitors. Booking Book online through Setmore, or by phone or email. Getting There Plas Coch Independent Hospital, The Roe, St Asaph, LL17 0HU.
