If you believe your top dogs deserve a holiday too, this spacious bungalow in a quiet hamlet on the beautiful North Cornwall coast is sure to set tails wagging. Ideal for families or a group of friends sharing, the welcoming property sleeps six guests, together with three pets. It is less than 2 miles from the charming fishing village of Port Isaac, familiar to TV viewers from the popular Doc Martin series. Wander along its winding streets down to the picturesque harbour, where children and four-legged friends can enjoy rock pooling and paddling on the small, dog-friendly beach.
This light-filled holiday home is appealingly furnished, with ample floor space for canine companions to nap on their dog bed or blanket. Keen cooks will enjoy using the range-style cooker in the well-appointed kitchen/diner, with meals shared around the dining table. Relax on comfortable seating in the airy lounge, with a Smart TV and cosy wood burner. There are three inviting bedrooms: a king-size, a twin and a bunk room, all sharing a sleek family shower room. Outside, greenery encloses the large rear garden, with seating and a lawn where children and pets can play in safety. There is private parking for two cars.
Enjoy a Cornish ice cream or fresh-caught crab from one of Port Isaac’s excellent seafood restaurants, then take a stroll to neighbouring Port Gaverne, just 500 metres away. Pets can scamper through the waves on this sheltered beach all year round. Test their sea legs on a boat cruise or marine wildlife safari from Port Isaac and walk the South West Coast Path for glorious clifftop views and intriguing smells for canines. Dogs are also welcome, on a lead, at Tintagel Castle (9.5 miles), reached by a dramatic foot bridge high above the rocks.
