A canine-friendly UK break is very popular with dog owners. Dog owners hate the idea of leaving pets behind in kennels or with a pet sitter. Ideally, most doggie owners prefer to rent a pet friendly cottage with a secure enclosed garden so that their furry friend can enjoy running and playing off the leash, or at least cottages with a dog run where a dog may be left alone for a short period. Book a property with a garden big enough so you can enjoy playing fetch with your pooch. Lots of couples own a dog and need just a one bedroom pets welcome holiday let with its own garden. A small number of cottages have a dog bed provided, and some even provide dog bowls and toys. Some will even have doggy shower areas where you can clean up your pup's muddy paws after long walks.

We hope you find the perfect rental for you and your pooch.
