Gather your nearest and dearest, including your four-legged friend, for a holiday to remember at this special, single-storey getaway. Sleeping 14 guests, the six-bedroom retreat in Hollym, 1.5 miles from Withernsea in East Yorkshire, comes with sumptuous accommodation, as well as a private swimming pool for the humans in your party and an enormous garden that the hounds will simply adore.
Step inside, hanging jackets and dog leads, before moving on into the lounge, where pups can snooze by the open fire while you read or pick out a tune on the piano. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner also has comfortable seating, where you can bask in front of the dual-aspect wood burner while your chum mills about in the capacious room. Prepare delicious meals in the magnificent kitchen, where there is a breakfast bar, then dine at the grand table with the bi-folding doors pulled open. Everyone, including your delighted dog, will enjoy the seamless indoor/outdoor living. When it is time for bed, settle your pal perhaps in the utility room, where there is a handy dog flap that opens onto an enclosed outside space. Your own bedrooms include a super-king-size, two doubles, a twin and a king-size, with an en-suite shower room, plus a room with two sets of adult-sized bunks. There are also two family bathrooms and a family shower room. The garden, which extends to two acres, is quite simply a puppy paradise. Keep an eye on him and any children near the pond. The swimming pool has a changing room, shower and WC. There is parking for five cars.
Spend time on the beach at Withernsea, where great stretches are pet friendly all year round. Venture 10 miles to the Spurn Discovery Centre, where there is a designated route for dog walkers that avoids areas with wildlife.
