If you’re planning a getaway with the whole family, you won’t want to leave your beloved dog behind! Luckily, there are plenty of hotels and accommodation options for dog-friendly holidays in the UK. So, take a look at our guide to some of the best places for dog-friendly breaks.
Dog-friendly Holidays in the UK by the Beach
As an island, the UK is home to thousands of accessible beaches and nearly 20,000 miles of coastline in total. So where better to take your pooch than to a hotel near the beach where they can run around.
It’s worth remembering that many beaches in the UK have dog bans, sometimes in specific areas or during peak seasonal periods. However, Carne Beach in Cornwall is dog-friendly all year round. The Nare Hotel is great if you’re taking holidays with dogs. Located on the Roseland Peninsula, the luxury hotel faces Carne Beach on a cliff-side, and is just a few minutes’ walk from the golden sand. Dogs are welcome in guest rooms and in the hotel public spaces. Also, there’s The Dogs’ à la Carte Menu, with something for everyone, including any fussy eaters.
Canine-Friendly Countryside Cottages
If you’re looking for some remote pet-friendly accommodation, the Hideaway Experience near Dundee is a fantastic choice. With a selection of luxury dog-friendly cottages within secluded natural surroundings, you can enjoy a private, tranquil experience. And, your dog will have access to vast farmland and country trails. Relax in the hot tub, sit on your deck under the stars, or explore the local area with your pet. Whether you’re planning a romantic break and you want to bring the pooch along, or you’re celebrating a special occasion, the Hideaway is perfect.
Eco Log Cabins in the Highlands
Eagle Brae offers unique eco-friendly accommodation in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. Surrounded by breathtaking natural landscapes, the luxury log cabins cater for your furry friends. Each log cabin has been individually designed and features beautiful hand-carvings of Highlands animals on the walls.
Keeping nature and conservation at the forefront, each cabin is environmentally friendly. A micro-hydro scheme provides electricity and hot water to the cabins. Underfloor heating is provided through biomass wood-pellet burners. Situated between Glen Affric and Glen Strathfarrar, you’ll find plenty of long walks with spectacular views of the dramatic Scottish landscapes.
