Your hounds will be in heaven when you book this stylish and comfortable country cottage, which is ideal for couples and small families looking for a rural escape. Take them for walks along the Tarka Trail, through Dartmoor’s wild landscapes or for runs on sandy beaches, before returning to this wonderful, converted barn, where touches of indulgence include a hot tub and even a paddock for further walkies.
Take the stone steps to the front door of this gorgeous single-storey cottage and lead your excited pups inside. Soft colours and tasteful furnishings make the lounge/diner a haven of relaxation, with a Smart TV and a wood burner to gather round in winter. In the galley-style kitchen you’ll find a retro-style fridge/freezer, as well as all the appliances you’ll need to make cooking a breeze. There’s also a handy utility room, a good option for storing canine food and kit. When bedtime beckons, give your pets a cuddle and head to the two stunning bedrooms, a flexible super-king and a double, which share a handsome shower room. Spend time outside, sipping a coffee on the patio, grilling on the BBQ or enjoying the views from the wood-fired hot tub. Guests can also take leisurely strolls through the surrounding fields and woodland, play games of fetch with your besties in the paddock, or head to the covered barn for an evening of pool, air hockey or darts. There’s ample parking at this wonderful escape.
Set on a farm alongside a handful of other high-quality holiday cottages, this impressive getaway is just 2 miles from the village of Sheepwash and its dog-friendly pub. There are endless countryside walks nearby, or for a beach day you could head to Instow, 17 miles, which welcomes mutts all year (check signs for restrictions in the summer).
