Take a stroll through history with your favourite furry friend as you wander along the Hadrian’s Wall Path together from this Cumbrian pod. Sleeping two guests, the one-bedroom holiday hideaway at Bowness-on-Solway is just perfect for a couple and their canine companions. Situated beside a shared grassy area with four other wooden pods, this glamping abode comes with its own wood-fired hot tub and deck.

Let your four-pawed pal lead you up three steps to the bijou bolthole. Open the French doors and watch pup pad into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner/bedroom, which has been creatively designed to ensure your comfort throughout your stay. Choose whether to relax inside or out with a cup of tea before setting to and cooking up a tasty meal in the kitchenette. Feed your hungry hound over here then set the table for your meal. While away your evenings watching a good film on the TV or planning dog-friendly activities for the following day. Settle your contented canine for his well-earned sleep before stretching out in your own double bed for the night. Awake to enjoy a steaming shower in the adjacent shower room before breakfast. Unwind in your private hot tub after long walks through the Cumbrian countryside and along the coast. Play games with your pet on the shared lawn and crack open a bottle of wine on the deck on warm evenings. There is private, on-site parking.

Pull on your boots, pick up the dog lead and stroll 2.5 miles to Drumburgh View Point to gaze out over the picturesque estuary and River Esk. Plan a day trip to the Lake District, 18 miles away, or head 21.5 miles to Gretna Green, where dogs are welcome to join you in the sculpture garden, maze and Famous Blacksmiths Shop.
