Surrounded by stunning mountains that lay waiting to be explored, there’s really no better place to enjoy a dog-friendly retreat than the Cumbrian village of Glenridding. Both pups and people will find something to go mutts for in this bright and beautiful property, whether it’s the endless routes for walkies on offer close by or the cosy bedrooms that await you after a long day of throwing tennis balls and receiving sticks. Merrily sleeping four guests and one canine companion, the cottage lends itself perfectly to any small family or a doggo-loving friendship group with a beloved four-pawed pal making up part of the pack.
Cheerfully presented with bright tones and colourful interiors, this accommodation choice is a delight to wake up to each and every morning. Jump out of bed and head downstairs, throwing open the door to let Fido stretch their legs as you relish your morning brew. Back inside, you’ll find an abundantly spacious kitchen with room to park your pet’s favourite bed, along with a lounge/diner where each and every member of the pack will find somewhere to get comfy. Throw a log on the wood burner to create a truly warming ambience, switching on the telly as your beloved bowwow curls up and snoozes by your feet.
Let Rover take the lead when exploring walks from your doorstep, embracing a walk to nearby Place Fell (3.5 miles) or heading further afield to Fairfield Peak (5 miles). The cottage itself is less than 1 mile from the banks of Ullswater, a generous expanse of lake with boat trips and plenty of waterside walking routes. Leave no stick unfetched when exploring the stunning Aira Force Waterfall (2.5 miles) or take a pup-friendly lake cruise from Glenridding Pier (1 mile) to Pooley Bridge (8.5 miles).
