Dog Friendly Cornwall
Miles of coastline
Cornwall is a pooch paradise. If your four legged friend doesn’t love digging on the beach (and there’s plenty to choose from), then there’s miles of coastal pathways and off-road inland walks to discover.
We have a good range of dog friendly accommodation on both Cornwall’s north and south coast. With the majority of our dog friendly properties, up to two well behaved dogs can stay.
