Treat your pup to a well-earned break at this Scandinavian-style lodge on the fringes of Mouth Hawke. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms and welcoming one canine companion, it’s perfect for families or groups who are looking for a stylish hideaway to call home while they explore North Cornwall with their pup by their side. Set off for walkies along the golden sands of Porthtowan Beach – where dogs are welcome all year round - and in the evening, come home to share a relaxing BBQ feast on your lodge’s beautiful patio.
Park in your private spot (there’s room for 2 cars), and head inside your quaint cabin. Store your dog-walking gear in the hallway and make your way to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Make yourself at home by the cosy wood burner before you head to the chic kitchen area to rustle up some dinner. Alternatively, head out onto the patio, fire up the charcoal BBQ and dine alfresco while you soak up the scenery. Afterwards, treat yourself to a dip in the private hot tub, challenge your loved ones to a friendly game of table tennis, or head back to the lounge to relax by the wood burner while your pup sleeps contentedly at your feet. At the end of the day, there are two bedrooms waiting for you – a generous king-size and a smart double (can be converted into two singles on request). Completing the layout is a modern family bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Take a seat in a dog-friendly beachside cafe in Porthtowan (1 mile) and spend a little time soaking up the laid-back surf town vibe. Afterwards, your pup can explore rock pools on the beach. Alternatively, if you head to the village of St Agnes (3 miles) to hike its rugged coastal trails, tails are sure to wag.
