Curated Cottages

Description

If long coastal walks, Dorset countryside and days spent exploring with your dog sound like your kind of holiday, Curated Cottages is a great place to start.

This small, family-run holiday letting company specialises in carefully selected cottages and holiday homes across Dorset. The collection stretches from Dorchester and Weymouth to West Dorset and the Purbecks, with plenty of options for guests who wouldn’t dream of going away without their dog.

Rather than filling the site with hundreds of properties, Curated Cottages takes a more considered approach. Each stay is personally selected by a local team who know Dorset well, with homes ranging from cosy cottages to larger family properties and stylish waterside escapes.

Dog-friendly stays come in all shapes and sizes. Depending on the property, you might find an enclosed garden for a little more freedom outside, walking trails close to the door or easy access to the coast. Some homes also come with hot tubs, pools, log burners, lake views and plenty of outdoor space.

Dorset itself provides more than enough reason to pack the walking boots and dog lead. The Jurassic Coast is home to some spectacular stretches of the South West Coast Path, while countryside trails, dog-friendly beaches and welcoming pubs give you plenty of choice when planning a day out together.

Guests can also tap into Curated Cottages’ local knowledge through its concierge service. The team can help with everything from local recommendations and restaurant bookings to private chefs and food deliveries, leaving you with more time to enjoy the holiday.

For anyone searching for dog-friendly cottages in Dorset with good locations, thoughtful facilities and a more personal approach to booking, Curated Cottages has plenty worth discovering.
