This truly beautiful area surrounding our dog-friendly Lake District cottages is well known as the land of Beatrix Potter and William Wordsworth, with the National Trust preserving much of the architecture in this traditional village. Your energetic doggo won't get the chance to chase Potter's beloved farmyard characters throughout your stay, however, a rewarding walk around the Grizedale Forest will offer plenty of charming wildlife and an endless supply of sticks to fetch. Similarly, the nearby Esthwaite Water is a great spot to head with a tennis ball and dog treats in tow. Here you'll find a much-loved waterfront café that is always dog friendly, the perfect respite during a day of adventure.
