Watch ears prick up and tails wag when you set out on long walks across the magnificent Kent Downs from this holiday lodge near Warren Street, 3 miles from Lenham. Sleeping six guests across three bedrooms, the single-story property, which is set within the owner’s grounds, welcomes two delighted dogs with open paws. Head out along a section of the 150-mile-long North Downs Way, which begins close by. Make trips to the coast about 16 miles from your base or simply relax out on the expansive deck, while your pups and children play on the grassy area in front.

Step inside the wooden cabin, hang the dog leads and jackets in the hall, and then wander through to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area. Open the French doors onto the deck in here on warm days and keep an eye on Fido and Fred as they amble out. Find everything you need to help you prepare delicious meals for hounds and humans alike with your own fresh produce, plus a table where you can dine and enjoy the country views. Watch the Smart TV/ DVD player after dinner as your furry friends rest their weary paws too. When you are ready to turn in for the night, choose between a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room; a super-king-size that can be arranged as twins in advance, and an additional twin, all with Smart TVs. There is also a family bathroom, and a utility room with a washing machine for damp doggy towels.

Visit Belmont House and Gardens, 5 miles away, where your happy hounds are also welcome and will find fresh bowls of water in the courtyard. Milton Creek Country Park, 10.5 miles away, is also a picturesque place to visit and includes a long section where happy hounds can bound free.

  • 3 bedrooms - 1 king-size, 1 super-king-size zip-and-link (which can be made into a twin on request), and 1 twin (which can be made into a super-king on request),
