Luxury dog-friendly cottages in Cumbria
From padding through heather-cloaked Lakelands fells to playing fetch in Windermere’s serene waters, a stay in one of our luxury dog-friendly cottages in Cumbria is sure to be one fine northern adventure.
Weekends together are better when the whole family's involved, four-legged friends included. In our curated collection of luxury dog-friendly cottages in Cumbria, there's hampers of tasty artisan treats on arrival, cosy dog beds settled right by the fire, and secret gardens that'll set tails wagging. So, round up your pack and make for a beautiful private home in the country, to places where dogs can spend their days in the woods, chasing each other’s tails and making impish plans to bury sticks.
If you're setting out to explore Cumbria’s wild landscapes with a faithful companion in tow, this curated collection includes, paws-down, the best kept secrets on the dog-friendly travel scene. With the sun on your face, take a trail round one of the county’s many lakes, tarns, rivers and reservoirs, letting the dogs race ahead for their morning dip. Or hike up one of the Lake District's peaks to blow off the cobwebs, before returning home to a balmy hot tub while the pups dream of foxes by the fireside.
