Enjoy the pleasure of watching your four-legged friend frolic in the waves and leave paw prints on the sand when you stay at this property. The two-bedroom, single-storey, holiday home at Westward Ho! in Devon welcomes two delighted dogs, as well as four guests, and is in a great location for days out at the beach and long coastal walks. Pick up a stretch of the South West Coast Path from the cottage then return home to take in the sea views or to relax out in the courtyard garden.

Watch the pups bound out of the car and into this inviting property. Call them into the airy lounge/diner where they can pad about as you unload and unpack. Watch the Smart TV in here after your trips out, with your cheerful chums close by, and dine at the table after whipping up holiday meals in the well-equipped kitchen. Feed your hungry hounds in here too then take them for a play in the garden before patting them goodnight and heading off to either the double bedroom or the room with a small double and single bunk above. The bedrooms share the family shower room. Bask in the spring and summer sunshine out in the courtyard garden, with your furry pals also enjoying the fresh air. Find you have some outdoor storage space plus parking for two cars at the property.

We had a great time at Salty Paws, the weather was fabulous, the beach was beautiful and the accommodation was comfortable. Outside space is limited so if youre looking for a big garden youre going to be disappointed. For us this was not a problem because the local walks from the property were great.

Salty Paws was an excellent holiday bungalow. We were lucky enough to stay during a heatwave and I can truly say, the bungalow remained cool when temperatures were hitting the very high 20s. The beds were very comfortable too which is not often the case. A great holiday home with some lovely additions and touches from the owner - a bottle of wine, Read morea plant, treats for the dog and a bag of sweets for the child. So thoughtful and kind. We would definitely stay again! Hide
