Since the release of Companion Vilja, people have quite often been asking me about housemods suitable for companions. Alas, many house mods that else are brilliant won't work at all well with companions. If there are no pathgrids, no persistant chairs and no beds without ownership, companions won't behave very well.
I've been working on a list of houses that are suitable for companions, and I wonder if you have any suggestions of house-mods that fits well for this - either a mod you have made or a mod you have used.
These are on my list so far, I hope the list can be made longer : (houses marked with *) I haven't tested myself but others have suggested them)
Note: On TESNexus, one can now tag-search for companionfriendly houses. So far, only a few modders have tagged their houses as companionfriendly, so I'll continue with this list for now. I will try to regularly add the houses listed as companionfriendly to this list (unless I have tested them and found that they don't have any sleeping accomodation for companions, in which case I don't feel they belong in the companionfriendly cathegory).
By suggesting Companionfriendly as a tag on your favorite houses on Nexus, you can help to make this Nexus tag-search more useful.

Enchanted Portable Tent is companion-friendly. The only hiccup is that because its door is an activator and not a real door, companions won't follow you through unless they're scripted to teleport to the player if they get separated.
Also, the private room you get in Better Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary when you complete the DB quest chain is its own cell, and is companion-friendly.
