Savour the glorious sunshine of your private garden at this spacious cottage in Devon while your delighted dog bounds and plays. Sleeping eight guests, the five-bedroom, stone retreat near East Allington, 10.5 miles from Dartmouth, has an enclosed, lawned garden, as well as access to wider shared grounds with a heated, indoor swimming pool, tennis court and games barn, and picturesque woodland to explore with your pet.
Return from long country and coastal walks to brush sandy feet and enter the dog-friendly hideaway. Head through to the utility room to leave your shoes, dog leads and any outerwear before taking two steps down into the lounge. Let your exhausted pal flop on the rug, while you play a game, read your books or watch the Smart TV. When puppy eyes start pleading for dinner, take him through to the modern kitchen to feed him his feast and prepare something tasty for the rest of your party. Congregate around the large table in the dining room for your meals and linger late into the night over a bottle of wine. There is a WC downstairs. Give soft ears a last stroke before bed then climb the stairs to the first floor. Here you will find a double bedroom and a king-size, each with an en-suite bathroom. In addition, there are two twin rooms and a single, plus the family bathroom. The private garden at this cottage is the jewel in its doggy crown. Let your canine chum wander about, while you sizzle supper on the BBQ and unwind in the sunshine. There is parking for three cars.
Head down to the charming, dog-friendly beach at Soar Mill Cove, 10.5 miles away, to let your pet paddle in the sea. Follow the picturesque South West Coast Path together from here in either direction.
