Customer review: "Really lovely accommodation. Very well equipped with everything you could want: tv, WiFi, dishwasher, washer and dryer, fridge. Hot tub was also great. Garden / is hedged and secure enough. We did rearrange the pots slightly to stop our escape artist and he never attempted it after that. Not far from Braunton, you could walk it but quite a steep hill so we always drove. Owners very friendly and welcoming. The doggy basket with towels, shampoo and treats was handy! "

A boutique-style lodge for two plus a pooch with stunning gardens and outdoor space, there's a lot to love about The Cabin Retreat. It's close to the Eden Project and the pretty villages of Fowey and Charlestown so you can enjoy easy access to the beaches and attractions of South Cornwall from this cosy retreat. Just across the road is access to Helman Tor, a nature reserve spanning 500 acres so it's perfect for dog walks. After a day of exploring, head to the private enclosed garden to just simply relax, whether that's with alfresco dining, cuddling up around the fire pit or stargazing from the warmth of the hot tub.

Customer review: "Beautiful place to stay. We couldn't fault anything. The owner was very helpful, and warm. Luna our dog loved the country walks, and the sea. We were located in the middle of the country side, but didn't have to travel far to fantastic pubs to eat. It wasn't far from the sea. We look forward to returning. This is the best stay we have been to. Many thanks. "

Customer review: "Booked last minute to take my kids (18 and 14) away for a few days. With my dog. We are used to international travel so were apprehensive about what to expect with a UK break. Absolutely blown away. Due to being last minute ended up with a fishing lodge (I don’t fish!) but that meant we were on a quiet lake with a stunning view. I will pretend to be a fisherman again just for this! Welcome packs: human one had Prosecco, fizzy shloer-type pop for the kids, milk in the fridge. Tea and coffee and some lovely Viennese biscuits. Shower gel and handwash etc. dishwasher also had four days worth of dishwasher tablets. Doggy welcome pack was a lovely touch. Branded tennis ball (my lab is obsessed!) and a doggy fleece blanket, doggy paw-fume, poo bags with a dispenser and some paw wipes.

"The lodge itself was clinically clean. I was amazed. I am snobby and only normally stop in “nice” hotels. But the lodge and the cleanliness made this for me. Beds were pristine. Kitchen and bathroom well above standard I had expected and despite me having a dog and it being a dog friendly lodge there was not one dog hair/trace of a dog having previously stayed. The housekeeping team are literally worth their weight in gold for this!! Hot tub was immaculate and was checked/treated twice a day by site staff. Very professional and unobtrusive. In/fuss dog/sort hot tub/out again. A great team. I could not have asked for more for my first UK stay experience. Will definitely return!!"

Located on the outskirts of the lovely market town of Belper in Derbyshire, The Lodge at Wildersley Farm is just a 10-minute drive away from Matlock so you're in a prime position to explore the Peak District with your pooch.

It boasts a vast garden space so there's plenty of room for your pooch to play with their toys and have zoomies. After a long day taking in the beauty of the surrounding nature, you can retreat to the hot hub and relax under the stars.

For a memorable escape to the countryside with your pup, book a stay at Otters Holt. The kitchen is equipped for rustling up a big breakfast before a day of exploring the rural setting that surrounds the lodge. Barnard Castle isn't too far away either for a change of scenery. Otters Holt has a private outdoor space at the front of the property, which comes complete with furniture and a log fire hot tub. Reviewers have said the owners supplied dog blankets and bowls to make their pooch feel welcome.

Customer review: "We brought our two small dogs along with us and I didn't expect two blankets and bowls for them. Also we were spoilt with complimentary Prosecco, milk and biscuits. The getaway was just what we needed and we were welcomed. The hot tub was ready and warm to use and the sky was clear with stars in abundance. We've booked again. Thank you for a lovely stay."
