Watch your happy hound bound across the lawned garden and along the scenic South West Coast Path when you book this charming, thatched hideaway in North Devon. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, single-storey lodge is situated near Yeo Vale, 4.5 miles from Bideford. It comes with a handy outside shower for rinsing off those sandy and muddy paws after exhilarating, doggy days out.
Make your way in via the porch to find yourselves in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. This light-filled space has French windows that can be opened up to the patio, so you can be sure your cheeky chum is well-contained if he fancies wandering outside on his own. Feed him over in the stylish kitchen, which is well-equipped and has plenty of storage space, then whip up your own meal and pull the chairs out from under the table. Let him lounge about on the floor while you sink back into the soft seating and flick through the Smart TV to find something everyone wants to watch. Give him a last pat before the night begins, then amble through to your gorgeous bedrooms. These include a super-king-size, with zip-and-link beds that can also be made up as twins on request, and a king-size. Each of these has an en-suite shower room. Enjoy the attractive garden to the full. Dine on the patio and play fetch with your happy hound on the lawn. Keep an eye on him as there is a pond in the next garden. There is off-road parking here for two cars.
Pack a picnic and head 5.5 miles to the beautiful, golden stretches of Westward Ho! Beach, where there are many areas for dogs to play about all year round. Find walking routes to follow together that take in sections of the Tarka Trail.
