Watch your four-pawed pal pad into this single-storey abode to discover his new home from home. At its heart is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with plenty of space for everyone to relax. Prepare his meals over in the kitchen area and whip up tasty dishes for everyone else to enjoy inside or out. There is also a handy washer/dryer here for your chum’s damp towels after wet walks. Settle on the soft seating to watch TV or play games while your contented canine finds himself a quiet corner in which to doze. When your eyelids start to droop too, make your way through to the twin bedroom or the super-king-size, which has an en-suite shower room and can be arranged as a twin if discussed at booking. There is also a family bathroom. Spill out on to your private patio to bask in the sunshine with your soft-eared friend at your feet or take him for a walk around the grounds.
