Enjoy your four-legged friend’s sheer puppy pleasure when you stay at this holiday home in Cornwall. This fabulous two-bedroom retreat, which comes with a private hot tub, is set on a friendly site at Carnmenellis, 9.5 miles from Falmouth. Sleeping four guests, it is the perfect place for couples and small families with pets to enjoy a little canine downtime between their trips out.
Make your way up three steps to enter the dog-friendly lodge. Wander inside to find bright, airy accommodation that centres on an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner and encompasses ample space for both hounds and humans. Keep the doors open on summer days as you chat, cook and dine together in this sociable area. Watch TV from the comfort of the soft seating as your four-pawed pal relaxes in his own quiet corner. When you are ready to turn in for the night, your tranquil bedrooms await. Leave your pup dozing and head through to the king-size, which has the luxury of an en-suite shower room, or the twin, with zip-and-link beds that can also be made up as a double if requested at least four days in advance. Choose between a long soak in the tub or a quick rinse under the shower in the family bathroom. Spill out onto your private, south-facing deck to sip your first cup of tea of the day before stretching furry legs with a long walk round the meadow before breakfast. Bubble in the hot tub after each exciting excursion. Guests have access to parking.
Head straight out to follow footpaths and trails across the picturesque Lizard Peninsula, which begins 7 miles away. The beautiful sandy beach at Dollar Cove, 10.5 miles away, welcomes sea-loving hounds at any time. From here, you can tackle a section of the South West Coast Path.
