Dog friendly cottages in the Lake District
Our collection of dog friendly self catering Lake District cottages are built with pups in mind, from enclosed gardens to easy-clean floors and close proximity to wide-open spaces.
Tucked away in some of the most beautiful Lake District spots, our cottages are never more than a few steps away from nature. We have cottages by the water to enjoy early wild swims, mountain cottages for quick access to famous fells, and others close to our very own dog field – perfect for off-lead exercise.
Better yet, we have lodgings for all budgets, from shepherd huts with your very own hot tub to luxury cottages with sprawling gardens and roaring log fires.

FAQs about Lake District dog friendly accommodation
Do you offer any dog friendly cottages with an enclosed garden?
Yes, we have several holiday cottages with fully enclosed gardens, giving you the confidence to let your pets explore freely.
Stable doors in some properties make it easy for pets to go in and out as they please. Fenced areas in others provide a safe space for stretching their legs in the morning, playing fetch, and burning off energy before bed.
Better yet, many of our Lake District holiday cottages have comfortable garden furniture and hot tubs. This way, you can relax outdoors too, and nobody gets left out!
Can dogs use the Coppermines dog fields in Coniston?
Yes! If you’re looking to ditch the lead, there are plenty of dog fields in the Lake District, including our very own one-acre field, located close to our dog friendly accommodation in Coniston village.
All of our guests and their pups are welcome to use the field, which offers a safe, off-lead space for dogs to play. Just get in touch with our friendly team to let them know your plans before you check in.

We have shepherd hut lodges, suites, and luxury dog friendly cottages in the Lake District set amongst mountains and waterfalls. Enjoy spectacular countryside views during the day while clear night skies offer the perfect conditions for star-gazing.
What’s included in a dog friendly Coniston cottage?
A dog friendly cottage has everything you need for you and your furry friend. An enclosed garden gives your pet the freedom to roam and play while our cottage locations place you next to fell walks, lakeshores, and wide-open fields.
Guests staying in Coniston dog friendly cottages even have access to an enclosed on-site field, perfect for off-lead activities. This needs to be booked in advance, so let us know about your plans before you arrive. Plus, we can help you find a local dog sitting service if you’re heading somewhere you can’t take your pet.
Our Lake District holiday cottages that are dog friendly accommodate 1-4 dogs, depending on the property, and we charge a standard fee of £5 per pet per night.
