Dog Friendly Cottages

Holidays are better when no one gets left behind, especially your four-legged friends. At cottages.com, we believe dogs aren’t just welcome, they’re family. That’s why our range of dog-friendly cottages goes beyond the basics to create breaks that are truly more than dog friendly.

Choosing a dog-friendly cottage gives you freedom, flexibility and comfort. Forget the hassle of kennels or worrying about pet sitters; instead, enjoy every moment together. Many of our cottages feature enclosed gardens, nearby walking routes and cosy spots for your pup to curl up after a day’s adventure. Some even include thoughtful extras like welcome packs, dog washing stations and secure outdoor spaces – perfect for muddy paws and wagging tails.

It’s not just about convenience; it’s about connection. With a dog-friendly cottage, you can plan days around stunning landscapes, picture-postcard towns and beaches that welcome everyone. Whether you’re chasing waves, climbing hills or exploring woodland trails, you’ll create lasting memories with your pet right by your side.

More Than Dog Friendly

Our promise is simple: we go further to make sure you and your dog feel completely at home. That means handpicking cottages in places where canine companions are not just accepted, but celebrated. Think pet-friendly extras such as water bowls, dog beds, treats, and toys at the ready, and endless walks on the doorstep. With nearly 12,000 dog-friendly cottages, we have the largest collection in the UK, and with nearly half of these offering dogs free of charge, we ensure our cottages are part of a bigger picture that puts tails and smiles first.
