Escape to the country with man’s best friend by your side, staying in this wonderfully traditional cottage surrounded by ample dog-friendly gardens. A top dog accommodation choice for those seeking outdoor adventure, this cottage is within reach of Dartmoor National Park (5 miles) and the North Devon coast at Bude (25 miles), offering so much choice for fetching and sightseeing. The property sleeps up to three guests with the use of an additional single bed, perfect for couples or small families, and invites three dogs to stay as well.
Step into this stone cottage and take in the splendid, traditionally styled decor inside. An open-plan lounge and dining room present plenty of space for your pups to curl up and get cosy, preferably with their masters curled up on the sofas. There’s no TV in this space, so you’re invited to enjoy some real quality time with man and dog alike. Next door, a well-equipped kitchen is on hand to rustle up delicious dinners and a ground-floor bathroom completes the space. Leave your sleeping dogs to lie downstairs as you make your way onto the mezzanine first floor, home to the bedroom. Outside, the property is completed by 24 acres of meadowland, lakes and garden, un-enclosed and shared with others so care should be taken with pets.
Just a short distance away, the West Devon town of Okehampton (7 miles) is a base for adventure, complete with easy access to the Dartmoor National Park and plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants to loop back to after any long walk. Discover the mysticism of Dartmoor with walks to the Nine Stones Circle (10 miles) or Higher Tor (10 miles). For pups who prefer to run wild on sandy shores, jump in the car and reach the Hartland Heritage Coast in less than 28 miles. Sandymouth Bay Beach (26.5 miles) is a spectacular seaside destination where dogs are welcome year-round.
