Only 1 mile from the picturesque village of Clifton-upon-Temes, where you can stock up on essentials in the village store and enjoy a quiet drink in the dog-friendly pub, this homely holiday bungalow is a lovely rural escape for a family of four and two canine companions. As well as walks in the surrounding countryside, let your dog off the lead in the enclosed field where they can run to their heart’s content.
The interior of the bungalow has been designed to reflect the surrounding environment, with pretty wooden furniture and decorated in warm earth tones. The whole family can get comfortable in the bright open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. On colder evenings, underfloor heating will warm tired feet and paws. Gather round the table for home-cooked meals and tasty treats, then have your hound curl up on their favourite cushion while you snuggle onto a sofa. Watch TV, or simply admire the stunning countryside views, while Fido dreams of an endless game of fetch. At bedtime, let sleeping dogs lie! Wake refreshed, ready for morning walkies. Keep your curious canine on a lead in the unenclosed garden, with the promise of a lead-free run later.
Set tails wagging with a trip to one of the surrounding areas sumptuous estates, with acres of parkland for your four-legged friends to sniff out. At Witley Court and Gardens (7 miles) there are refreshments available and ruins to have a look in, and let your dog lead the way along the woodland walks at National Trust’s Brockhampton Estate (9 miles). Further afield, pack the car for a day of exploring and drive out to the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. You’ll be at the heart of the Hills in only 16.6 miles.
