PET FRIENDLY HOLIDAYS
THE CARDIFF DOG WALKING COMPANY
Going on holiday as a family is never the same without your family
pet. If you are planning your holiday – why don’t you
bring your pet with you? After all, doesn’t your best friend
deserve to come along too? If you want to take your dog – or
even your cat on holiday with you, there are plenty of places around
Britain that offer pet friendly environment. There are dog friendly
and cat friendly holidays in cottages, guesthouses and hotels. Of
course campsites and caravan parks are often a popular choice with
pet owners.
Pet
Friendly Walking Holiday Cottages in Wales
Bwthyn y Saer (the carpenter’s cottage) and Ty Cerbyd
(the coach house) are four star self-catering holiday cottages in
the Swansea valley. They are two of many holiday cottages which are
waiting to welcome your dog!
Nestled on the slope of a gentle mountain overlooking the scenic
valley town of Pontardawe, the farm cottages are surrounded by 100
acres of rolling farmland. With open hillsides, rivers, farmland,
forest and mountains at your doorstep, your dog will feel like he
is on holiday too! Your dogs will love the open space, the exciting
new smells and the acres of new territory to explore. The countryside
surrounding to cottages is ideal for dogs, with secluded paths, riverside
woods and forestry trails.
There are handy outdoor taps to wash your pet’s muddy paws
after that soggy hillside walk and both cottages feature their own
enclosed lawns.
The cottages are just a few miles away from the sandy beaches of
the Gower, if your pet wants to put his paws in the water, or there
are the numerous mountain trails to follow on Mynydd Marchhywel (Hywel’s
Mountain) directly behind the accommodation. From the top, a clear
day gives panoramic views out to Swansea Bay and Mumbles. You can
enjoy taking your dog on an exploratory walk up the mountain following
the Plas Farm Trail, or perhaps further afield on one of the many
trails in the Brecon Beacons.
The surcharge per pet is £15 per week – far more economical
than boarding your pet in a kennels. We ask that pets are never left
in the cottages unattended, as this can cause your pet anxiety. Around
sheep and cows, we advise pets are kept on a lead.
This year, when you’re packing for your holiday – don’t
forget the dog bed, bowls and biscuits.
