Why this guest can’t stay away. 11 stays in 8 years
Having stayed at Bed and Basket many times over the last eight years (well into double figures) it’s about time I posted a review. We have stayed in supposedly ‘dog friendly’ accommodation in many parts of the country and have not found anywhere offering similar facilities to such a high standard. Sometimes we have stayed multiple weeks and so have seen at first hand the thorough cleaning regime that the team carry out between guests – several hours are spent each time on a deep clean and preparation. Dawn and Brian are at the same time professional and friendly and are on hand to offer advice and support if needed. If you need anything just ask!
Good Points.
Wonderful peaceful location. Lots of space – this means relaxed people and dogs. Cleanliness. Friendly team. Well kept gardens offering plenty of space for dogs and people. Characterful barns. Genuinely dog friendly – not just ‘dog tolerant’. Rural location but close to everything that makes a good holiday. Plus the look of joy on your dogs face when you arrive and they realise where they are!
Bad Point.
Having to come home! Trevor, Carol and Louis
Why our guests keep coming back.
We’ve stayed at Bed and Basket each year since 2022. Highly recommend it for the great accommodation and many facilities offered for both humans and dogs. In particular, the dogs love the large, safe outdoor space to run around in. We’ll be back in May 2026! Beverley, Rowley, Loki and Wilf.

What guests say in brief.
Immaculate and well thought out. Perfect place for dogs and their owners. Rested and recharged our worn out batteries.
Great place to take your dogs. Safe exercise area and excellent truly dog friendly place to stay.
Bed and Basket is pretty close to perfection. I don’t think I’ve ever stayed somewhere the online photos and information matched reality so well.
What a place! Such a fab idea for dog lovers like ourselves who won’t leave their dogs in kennels. They really have thought of everything.
The most excellent dog friendly holiday, everything you could possibly want is provided and all so very clean it is hard to imagine dogs have ever been in the accommodation.
The accommodation at Bed and Basket is first class super dog friendly. I had searched tirelessly to find somewhere that would accommodate 4 dogs with beautiful scenery, relaxing days and walks on the beach. Bed and Basket had everything that we needed.
What a lovely place – the fenced area is an absolute godsend with 2 dogs who cannot be let off a lead unless in an enclosed area. Thank you so much, we will see you again.
Love that this is such a practical place to bring dogs, especially ones that seek out smelly stuff to roll in – love the hot and cold showers outside.
