At Bed and Basket near St Austell in Cornwall, our dog friendly holidays are all about creating memorable experiences for you and your four-legged friends. We love hearing about the moments that make your stay extra special. Recently, we asked our guests one simple question: What are your dog’s favourite holiday activities when staying at Bed and Basket?
The results were brilliant and very Cornwall. Here’s what you told us:
Joint Third Place: River Splashes and Pasty Sharing
Some of our dogs love a playful splash in the river, while others can’t resist sharing the crimp from your Cornish pasty. Clearly, dogs know how to enjoy the finer things in life! We can direct you to both nearby rivers to play in and fabulous locations to buy a tasty pasty!
Second Place: Zoomies in the Enclosed Paddocks
With 20% of the votes, the second dog favourite activity was running free, with zoomies in one of Bed and Basket’s enclosed paddocks. There’s nothing like that burst of energy and joy. It’s a pleasure to see.

First Place: Running on the Beach
By far the most popular dog friendly activity was a good old run on the beach. Sand, sea, and plenty of space make this a favourite for dogs of all shapes and sizes.
We’ll be sharing more in future blogs about dog friendly Cornwall adventures, including:
