Watch your delighted dog race across the walled garden at this splendid Gloucestershire barn. Sleeping 15 guests, the gorgeous, seven-bedroom retreat is perfect for large parties eager to bring their pups along for a special getaway. With an annexe, games room and wood burner, this three-storey, holiday home, is close to some fantastic Cotswolds and River Severn walks.
Follow your four-legged friend in to find characterful accommodation, with different levels, steps and low beams. Gather in the magnificent lounge, with its stone walls and vaulted ceiling and light the wood burner to warm chilly paws. Watch TV with your chum or head up to the mezzanine to play pool in the games room. Feed your hungry hound and prepare feasts in the beautiful kitchen/diner, a few steps down from the dining room. There is also a snug, where you and your contented canine can savour a little tranquillity in front of another TV, and a utility room. When you are ready for bed, settle your pet then head off to one of the five ground-floor bedrooms: two doubles, one with en-suite shower room, a twin, with en-suite bathroom, a single and a family room, with a double and a single bed. A triple room, with three singles, a TV and an en-suite bathroom, is on the second floor. The detached annexe features its own lounge/kitchen/diner downstairs and double bedroom, with en-suite shower room, upstairs. Gather in the garden together to play ball with your ecstatic pal and any children in the group or to enjoy BBQs on summer evenings.
