Property code: SZ265

Offer your beloved pup the getaway of a lifetime with a stay in this charming countryside property, perfect for embracing long walks in the Yorkshire Dales National Park and Lake District further afield. After a day of walkies, fetching sticks and chasing the Cumbrian wildlife, we’re certain there’s nothing your dog will want to do more than curl up and get cosy in a warm and welcoming property. This single-storey cottage provides an ever-inviting atmosphere for four guests and one canine companion to call home, offering an equally rewarding environment for all guests (humans included) to feel completely comfortable!

Boasting increased accessibility, this farmhouse accommodation can be accessed via an external ramp and is all laid out on the ground floor. Painted with warm and cheerful colours throughout, both man and man's best friend will feel instantly cheery when waking up in this delightful space. Let Fido park their favourite dog bed in the cosy lounge, a space with an electric heater to add a cosy ambience and plenty of seating for lazing around late at night. Let a sleeping dog lie when it's time for bed, heading on through to a double and twin bedroom just down the hall. Naturally, a dog-friendly property wouldn't be complete without plenty of outdoor space and this property doesn't disappoint with a private terrace and generous shared gardens.

Take the lead with long walks in the surrounding hills, soaking up the very best scenery of the two nearby national parks. Close by, you’ll find fascinating woodlands and the banks of the River Eden when walking in Stenkrith Park (6 miles), as well as the chance to drop into the charming market town of Kirkby Stephen (7 miles). Leave no stick unfetched in the Lake District National Park, flocking to ever-popular Lake Windermere (25 miles) for a rewarding lakeside dog walk or even a pup-friendly boat trip on its shore.

We stayed in the Howgill property in April 2024 and found it warm, comfortable and very clean. We didn't notice the very cold night until we saw the frost the next morning.

It is a lovely cottage with plenty to do in the area. I would have given 5 stars but for the lack of somewhere to hang wet coats as you enter the property.

Lovely barn conversion cottage with a view up to the hills. No need to draw the curtains, wake up to stunning view. Family owners + dog, Feather, really nice folks. Even left a jar of doggy treats for our dog. Ideal location to explore The Lakes and the Dales, near a road but so well insulated you could hear nothing. Ate some great food in local inRead morens. Lots of birds and saw a red squirrel fleetingly. Worth the long drive from Dorset. Hide
