When it comes to dog friendly holidays in the UK Winnie, Gertie and I have clocked up some miles! From Lands End to John O’Groats, few counties remain uncharted territory.
However, when we decided to take the dogs to Morzine in the French Alps, it was a whole new ball game.
I knew the distance would be no problem. After all, my two intrepid terriers love travelling more than Gulliver himself! But it was all the ‘red tape’ that had always put me off! Adhering to all the strict regulations and visiting a vet in a foreign country – it all seemed a little overwhelming!
In recent years The Isle of Wight has become a dog-friendly holiday hot spot. Dotted with chocolate box villages and famed for its quintessential British charm, the dogs and I set out to explore whether this unique island lives up to its dog-loving reputation. Hailed as the diamond isle, (due to its shape) the Isle of Wight proves itself time and time again as […]
Walk by walk, I was becoming less desirable and found myself competing with anything feathered or furry! Gradually Winnie’s impeccable recall skills were dwindling!
My perfect puppy was morphing into a teenage terror (albeit an incredibly adorable one) and through no fault of her own. I knew I needed to restore her confidence around other dogs and manage her distractions by making myself more ravishing than a rabbit!
Whilst treats worked to a certain extent, they weren’t proving reliable enough! It was time to up my game and find a way to strengthen our bond.
When it comes to the perfect dog-friendly destination, Crantock Bay Holiday Apartments in Cornwall are in a league of their own!
As seasoned travellers, my two intrepid explorers know only too well when they’ve struck gold!
Picture immaculate accommodation in an idyllic location. It’s no wonder two little tails were wagging from the moment we arrived!
Toe beans roasting by an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose!
It can only mean one thing, the countdown to Christmas is officially on. And if you’re looking for fanciful ideas of how to fill your dog’s Christmas stocking, we are here to inspire you!
Ever since me and the dogs visited Salcombe in the Autumn of 2022, I have been eager to revisit this exquisite part of Devon.
With sweeping golden beaches, stunning countryside, and oodles of dog-friendly places to boot, it has to be my favourite part of the Devonshire coastline.
So when we were invited by Midships to come and stay at their newly refurbished holiday home, tails were wagging all around!
Spotlessly clean, and brimming with personality, this delightful coastal cottage has a real country vibe. Providing its guests with the perfect haven of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of village life.
Striking just the right balance between luxurious and welcoming, Mousehole Cottage is decked out in calming neutral tones. And whilst portraying a fresh contemporary feel throughout, it still maintains that all-important cottagey ambiance.
With tasteful furnishings, complimented by Orla Keily blinds and subtle seasidey nods here and there, it has just the right amount of nautical niceties to satisfy my seaside fascination!
Join us as we embark on our bonniest adventures to date, exploring dog friendly Fife.
Greeted by what is undoubtedly the most dog-centric entrance hall ever, the girls and I instantly knew that our time at The Nethergate was guaranteed to be tail-waggingly good!
Coupled with the fact that the cottage is situated just a few minutes walk from a magnificent sandy beach, [actually less if you have two eager terriers in tow!] we had stumbled on doggy paradise personified!
Now as seasoned travellers, the girls and I know exactly what makes a good dog-friendly holiday cottage, and I can unreservedly say that Sunnyside did not disappoint. It is pooch perfect!
You won’t find any annoying dog rules; or any never-ending lists of dos and don’ts! At Sunnyside Cottage your dog is the guest of honour! You are merely there as their chaperone to make sure they have the pawfect holiday!
