Experience a break in dog-friendly Beaminster with man’s best friend in tow, staying in this lovely town centre cottage with pet-friendly pursuits just a tennis balls throw away. Complete with stone-flagged flooring, this 17th-century cottage is simply teeming with traditional charm and cosy cottage elements. The two-bedroom property happily hosts four guests with one versatile zip-and-link bedroom adding an additional dose of versatility to your guest makeup. Be sure to pack up dog beds and blankets when planning your trip, as one furry friend is always welcome to stay too.

Enter this lovely Grade II-listed holiday home and find an optimal place to relax with your beloved bow-wow curled up at your side. With its hearth and working wood burner, the ground-floor lounge space is exceptionally cosy. Let younger ones play table football as you put your feet up and Rover gets cosy by the warmth of the fire. Continue through to the kitchen which offers access to an enclosed rear garden. This sunny spot features greenery and a furnished patio, perfect for letting Fido sniff around whilst you enjoy an evening sundowner. A handy bathroom completes the ground floor space, whilst one of two king-size bedrooms on the first floor benefits from its own en-suite.

Situated at the heart of the Dorset AONB, the little town of Beaminster boasts plenty to go mutts for. Lace up your walking boots and plan routes for walkies all around, heading to the peaks of Lewesdon Hill (5 miles) or Pilsdon Pen (5.5 miles) for superb views of the surrounding area. Leave no stick unfetched amongst the vibrant woodlands that surround these hills, perhaps following a waymarked route along Dorset’s Wessex Ridgeway before dropping back into town to enjoy a hearty snack at a pet-friendly local pub.

We really enjoyed our stay at Spinners Hatch. It is a quaint, very old cottage, with uneven flooring, but this only adds to the charm. Beds were very comfortable, and we all greatly enjoyed the table football! The sunny, walled garden is charming, with the many shrubs and flowers attracting bees and butterflies. It is a very short walk into BeaminsRead moreter centre, where there are local shops and restaurants. We particularly enjoyed dining at The Ollerod. We would love to stay again! Hide

What a wonderful place to stay, warm and inviting right from the start, like always because we have a dog we bring covers for the furniture because even the best behaved doggies try it on occasionally to rest their weary paws in comfort. We have family in Beaminster and the cottage gave us a fantastic opportunity for family dimmer with a well stockRead moreed kitchen. Highly recommended Hide
