Follow the South West Coast Path with your furry friend and let him dip his paws in the salty water of Cornish coves when you stay in Polruan. Sleeping four guests, this traditional, two-bedroom cottage is a paws-down winner for pups who enjoy being near the sea. Right by the river, it offers bright, sunny accommodation and views across the water to Fowey. It is well placed for splendid walks both inland and along the coast.
Step inside to find yourselves in a light-filled lounge with space for you and your happy house to relax after your excursions. Lay a fire in the wood burner on chilly days then let him stretch out on the carpet to warm his soft fur. Watch the TV or a DVD in here, play games or read your book. Take your pet through to the kitchen when it is time to dish up his dinner and prepare yours using the fresh seafood you have bought locally. Call everyone through to the sun-soaked dining area adjacent when it is time to eat. Settle your cheerful chum downstairs for the night before climbing the cottage stairs to your own rooms. These include a king-size, with waterside views, and a twin. There is also a family bathroom. There is no outside space with this property but you are right on top of the South West Coast Path and can be out of the village within 200 metres to give furry legs some scenic exercise.
Stroll 1.5 miles out along the dramatic coastline to the National Trust’s picture-postcard Lantic Bay, where pups can play freely on the sand and splash in the shallows all year-round. Take the ferry over to Fowey, with your delighted dog by your side and ready to explore the landscape from the other side.
