Dog-Friendly Hotels in Cornwall

Choosing a dog-friendly hotel in Cornwall
In Cornwall, the right dog-friendly hotel mostly comes down to which coast you want. The north coast around Newquay has the most choice. Big hotels sit on the headlands above the surf beaches, and the coast path is usually only a few minutes’ walk away. The Headland, above Fistral, is a good example: dogs get a welcome pack and you get the sea view. The north coast suits active dogs and owners who like a long beach walk before breakfast.
The south coast is gentler. Around Falmouth, the Helford River and the Roseland, you’ll find sheltered coves, wooded creeks and smaller country-house hotels, where a dog is just as likely to be lying by the fire in the lounge. Budock Vean, on the Helford, has its own woodland and riverside walks. Further west, the Lizard and the coast around St Just and Penzance are wilder and quieter, with walks along the cliffs.
Inland Cornwall is easy to forget, but it’s worth a look for winter breaks. On Bodmin Moor you can walk all day without worrying about beach restrictions, and old coaching inns such as Jamaica Inn have log fires waiting when you get back.
