An astonishing 4.7 million UK households have acquired a new pet since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to latest figures from the Pet Food Manufacturers’ Association. There is now a record number of 35 million pets of some kind in 17.4 million households and 13 million of them are dogs. No wonder, then, that accommodation providers are stepping up and catering for the canine clientele as well as their human customers.
Increasingly, it’s become the case that holidaymakers are unwilling to go away without their pets, which is one reason why the popularity of motorhomes has rocketed.
It used to be like looking for a dog biscuit on a beach trying to find holiday homes where dogs could come too. It can still be tricky, but our advertisers have the perfect places for both people and their pooches, in stunningly gorgeous parts of the country.
Take Stonehaven, in the lovely seaside town of Seaton Carew, County Durham. This is premium accommodation for seven which is excellently placed for the beach and local park.
Seedlings Retreats and Holidays is a delightfully dog-friendly harbourside cottage for a luxury break for four in the lovely Welsh coast town of Aberaeron, another place with a famously beautiful beach.
You and your dog(s) will be spoiled for space at 7evern @ Porth Farm, a bright, modern barn conversion on a working sheep farm in the unspoiled inland countryside of Caersws, Powys.
And, dogs and owners will love the seriously beautiful surroundings of Downside, another fabulous farm-based holiday cottage, near Beaminster, Dorset.
Stonehaven
Stonehaven provides a comfortable and homely place to stay in the heart of Seaton Carew. Sleeping up to 7 guests, this private holiday home boasts free parking, WiFi and it’s just a short 5-minute walk to the beach. Ideal for family holidays, you’ll have access to the full house which benefits from a living room, open plan kitchen diner, four bedrooms, a family bathroom, a separate WC and a hot tub. Stonehaven is located in the popular seaside resort of Seaton Carew in County Durham. With long stretching golden sands, Seaton Carew boasts a beautiful beach. Enjoy a relaxing walk along the promenade which runs adjacent to the beach all the way from Hartlepool Marina to Seaton Carew. The perfect spot for all of the family, little ones will love the resort attractions along the seafront and you can finish your day in one of the many restaurants.
