    The Fells, Cumbria
    The Fells is an ideal cottage for a holiday in the Northern Lakes. As the owners’ much loved Lake District base, it is comfortable and well equipped, with personal touches making it a real home from home. Elevated in a quiet corner above Keswick, there are extensive, unobstructed views across the roof tops towards the surrounding fells - yet the town centre, with all its amenities, is only a couple of minutes’ walk away. During the evening you can relax in the living room with an electric flame-effect fire on with snug sofa and chairs. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking up a feast. There are front and rear lawned gardens with beautiful flowers and shrubs with a sitting-out area for you to enjoy. Families, walkers and pet owners will love the location, close to Fitz Park with its children’s playground and quick access on to the open fells. 50 metres down the quiet, narrow lane in front of the cottage is a footbridge over the River Greta into Fitz Park. No wonder some guests have returned for over fifteen years! Shop, pub and restaurant 200 yards.

Some of the most popular days out include visiting quaint villages and towns like Windermere, Keswick, Ulverston, Coniston and Troutbeck. You'll have the ideal mix of rural escape and things to see and do. Keswick in particular, which is found on the northern lakes, is very dog-friendly - you'll probably see more dogs than people when visiting here! There are plenty of dog-friendly pubs, shops, attractions and public transportation that welcomes dogs, making a trip to Keswick hassle-free.

Our Dog-Friendly Insider Tips for Cumbria

 

If you love a dog-friendly beach, we recommend Haverigg Beach which is great for family days out by the sea. Plus, your furry friend will appreciate that there are no restrictions so they can run freely across the sand! Whilst here, you can also walk along the sea wall and visit the idyllic Hodbarrow Nature Reserve. St Bees Beach is another wonderful option where you can expect blustery coastal vistas and rock pools!

 

There is plenty of Roman heritage around Cumbria, like the Hadrian's Wall at Birdoswald Roman Fort (home to the longest stretch of Hadrian's Wall.) Here, you can stroll around the sight and take in the ruins with your pup.

 

For city lovers, enjoy a trip to Carlisle, where you can expect lots of sightseeing and plenty of dog-friendly pubs and restaurants serving delicious food. During your trip, soak in the magnificent Carlisle city walls, castle, and nature reserves with your four-legged friend by your side. Dogs also really enjoy outdoor adventures at Hutton-in-the-Forest where they are allowed almost everywhere on the estate, they'll love a walk around the gardens, lake, and wildflower meadow. You may even spot some red squirrels on your venture!

 

Are you a castle fan? Lowther Castle has had a long association with dogs so you can rest assured that it's dog welcoming. The Yellow Earl was the last person to live in the castle, and he kept a tribe of hounds! Embark on the one hour trail around the garden, and you'll discover fun facts about 16 famous pups.

 

Once you have finished exploring for the day, return to your exceptionally comfortable dog-friendly accommodation and rest up ready for another day of escapades together.
