Summary:
The name "Dallas" is derived from the British 'dol' meaning "meadow" and 'gwas' meaning "dwelling".
Meadow House is a petite guesthouse inspired by Dallas architecture and art museums, native plants to the area, as well as my own travels and heritage from Southeast Asia. Most of the furnishings in Meadow House are vintage, a part of our commitment to reducing consumption while providing a safe and comfortable experience for guests. We're a 5 min drive from the lively Bishop Arts district.
The Space:
Our home caters to both short term and medium term stays, making it an excellent choice for corporate housing needs. Whether you find yourself temporarily displaced from your home or require accomodations for your team during an extended project in our area, we provide a welcoming and comfortable "home away from home" experience.
Welcome to Meadow House: your cozy and serene oasis awaits you. With all the bells and whistles of a hotel, and yet, plush and welcoming like your very own home.
Our living room is designed to help you indulge in life, complete with flatscreen tv and nap-worthy couch.
A perfectly situated kitchenette is complete with a bar-height dining nook for two.
Your beautiful and spacious bedroom featured a queen sized bed, vintage style vanity and plenty of closet space.
Best of all, your bedroom comes with an en-suite zen style bathroom with rain shower.
We don’t blame you if you never want to leave!
Lastly, we must stress that we do NOT allow parties or large unauthorized gatherings of any sort at our property. We are adamant about only welcoming families and groups who are looking to relax and enjoy the beautiful stunning backyard and the amenities the home has to offer.
