Britain has so many appealing areas to choose from, for a break with your pet pooch.  Beautiful National Parks are popular choices where you won't be short of exciting and interesting walks for your pet and the family. There is plenty to see with miles of astonishing hillsides and mountain ranges, forests and lakes across the UK. Why not take the kids on their bikes while you take a leisurely stroll through some of the most beautiful and breathtaking areas of the UK. The smallest and hairiest member of the family will love the change of scenery with plenty to sniff out and explore. Be aware of National Park dog walking guidelines however in regards to taking your dog off its lead and other regulations.

Fabulously up-market pine lodges that embrace four legged pets with their master.

A self-catering holiday in a high quality pet-friendly pine lodge is a treat to be savoured. Under-floor heating is all the rage at some cabins; a gentle pervasive heat from the floor upwards. It is a great temptation to join your dog in walking barefoot around this type of holiday home to enjoy the warmth on your toes.

Naturally, the décor has been thought out with furry friends in mind. There is nothing nicer than a comfy bed beside a source of heat on cool days or a soft dog safe chair on the decking to make the most of cooling breezes on hot summer days. Most pine lodges have a wrap-around veranda or decked area that offers a shaded place to sit and enjoy the views. The best most lavish log cabin holidays will have good quality drinking bowls, heavy and shiny that a posh dog deserves.

Some lodges will have extras for your pooch like dog beds and dog water bowls; ask before booking to find out what pooch-friendly facilities are available.

Rent a dog-friendly lodge and you don’t need to compromise on style and quality.  There are plenty of luxurious cabins including 5 star rated holiday lodges that specialise in offering high quality accommodation for holidaymakers with pets.
