Luxury dog-friendly cottages in the Cotswolds
Whether buried in storybook villages or sweeping valleys, our collection of luxury dog-friendly cottages in the Cotswolds are chosen for their proximity to nature, offering a welcoming retreat for both pets and owners.
If you are planning on bringing your pet along to a break in the Cotswolds, our curation of dog-friendly homes are the best-kept secret on the canine travel scene. The Cotswolds is a haven for dogs and owners, with miles of scenic walks, winding streets, and butterscotch-hued hamlets in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. After a day padding down the Cotswold Way trail or eating seasonal dishes in a dog-friendly pub, these cottages provide the perfect setting for both you and your four-legged companion to unwind.
Opt for a stone barn rooted on 500 acres of whimsical farmland and not far from historic Cheltenham. Or, settle within the pages of Laurie Lee's Cider with Rosie in Gloucestershire, exploring the enchanting magic of the Slad Valley from a country house with your dog in tow. You’ll discover the likes of a hamper of tasty artisan treats on arrival, cosy dog beds settled right by the fire, private orchards and gardens that'll set tails wagging and noses sniffing. These are stays tailored to make every guest – paws included – feel right at home.
