Watch soft ears prick up when you arrive at this fabulous Nottinghamshire retreat. Surrounded by verdant countryside, the two-bedroom cottage, in South Leverton, 6 miles from Retford, is a true puppy paradise. With exciting dog walks right on the doorstep and a private garden to nose about in, there is also a wood-fired hot tub for the people in your party.
Call your canine away from his spectacular surroundings to enter the stylish cottage. Wander into the kitchen/diner to give him some tasty treats, whip up a feast for everyone else and relax with a glass of wine at the table or breakfast bar. Pull the bi-folding doors back to bring the views right inside. The lounge is another inviting place to spend quality canine time together. Light the wood burner in here to warm chilly paws and catch up on your latest boxset via the Smart TV. As night falls, bid your handsome hound goodnight and take yourselves off to your own sumptuous bedrooms upstairs. These include a splendid super-king-size, with its own free-standing bath, and a twin with zip-and-link beds that can be put together to make a second super-king with a ensuite shower room. Carry morning coffee out onto the patio on summer days with your faithful friend at your heel. Soak in the hot tub under the stars on fine evenings with your chum close by. There is parking here for two cars.
Visit the National Trust’s picturesque Clumber Park, where dogs are welcome to explore the 3,800 acres of beautiful parkland with you and can also run free in an exercise paddock. Plan a day trip to magnificent Sherwood Forest to take your chum to walk along leafy trails said to have been frequented by Robin Hood.
