Property code: WOODC

Retreat with your outdoor-loving pets to this inviting cottage nestled in magnificent Dartmoor National Park. Situated at Hennock, 4 miles from Bovey Tracey, it offers stylish, bright accommodation for up to three guests as well as a pair of doggos. Head off for long walks through your leafy surroundings or make your way down to the sea for coastal hikes. Savour the natural surroundings or let your four-legged friends roam the paddock you share with the other holiday properties tucked away in this secluded setting.

Relax in the comfort of your renovated, single-storey cottage. Find its light-filled interior has some chic, contemporary touches. Return home from busy days out to put your feet up in your open-plan kitchen/diner/lounge while your happy hounds snooze close by. Light the wood burner, watch TV or open a book that you have chosen from the library in the games room. Take your pals for a last run around the field before bidding them goodnight and heading into one of your two comfortable bedrooms, which share a family shower room. On warm mornings, enjoy breakfast outside and on sunny afternoons, light one of the BBQs in the communal area while the pups potter close by.

Make some sandwiches, fill your water bottles and venture out into the national park. Head to Tottiford Reservoir or make your way to Canonteign Falls, both 2 miles away. Here you will find a Victorian folly and falls that descend for over 70m through ancient woodland. Stop at the dog-friendly cafe for a cup of tea and find your thirsty pals can help themselves from water bowls and might even be rewarded with a doggy treat or two.

A peaceful, cosy cabin in beautiful surroundings. Very dog friendly and well equipped site with the excellent games barn. We hadn't realised there isn't a local food shop but Bovey Tracey is only a 10 minute drive away. The delicious cream tea on arrival and local pub kept us fed until we made it to the shops.
