Finding somewhere to stay where your dog is genuinely welcome makes planning a holiday so much easier. Pawfect Stays brings together a hand-picked collection of dog friendly accommodation across the South West and Cotswolds, from cosy cottages and stylish hotels to glamping, holiday parks, B&Bs and self-catering stays.
Whether you’re dreaming of a few days beside the coast, a countryside escape or a longer holiday exploring somewhere new, you’ll find dog friendly places to stay in some of the region’s most beautiful destinations. From Cornwall and Devon to Dorset, Somerset, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and the Cotswolds, we’ve brought together places where you and your dog can enjoy the holiday together.
We’re not just interested in whether a property allows dogs. Our listings give you the useful details that can make a real difference, from dog-friendly rooms and gardens to walks, beaches, pubs and places to eat nearby. You’ll also find our Pet Perks, so you can see at a glance what each place offers your four-legged companion.
Once you’ve found somewhere you like, explore the surrounding area too. Pawfect Stays covers dog friendly beaches, walks, restaurants, pubs, attractions and days out, helping you plan more than just where to sleep. It’s all about finding the places that make a holiday with your dog easier, more enjoyable and a little more special.
