The thought of having to kennel your fur baby while embarking on a bliss filled break can get your holiday off on the wrong foot. Dogs benefit from a change of surroundings too: excited by the smells, sights and textures of a new landscape. Fortunately, the recognition of animals as valued family members is becoming more accepted in the wider community and has inspired the prevalence of dog-friendly holiday digs.
Pet friendly caravan parks are now nationwide and also a cost effective consideration when holidaying with your dog. It’s hard to beat the space, the proximity to nature, the fresh air and access to canine compatible activities. We vet dog friendly campsites to make your choice easy, because we believe the family that stays together, plays together.
It’s always important to remember these are shared spaces, possibly with other holidaying animals so always control your dog and familiarise yourself with specific pet requirements.
