When you stay with us, your whole family is assured of a warm welcome in all our self catering dog-friendly accommodation. That's why we're proud to offer some of the best dog-friendly holidays on the Isle of Wight.

From the superbly designed domes in the meadow overlooking the stunning Solent and south coast, to the Out of Africa style safari tents nestled amongst the trees, to the cosy Nordic wood cabins and the more traditional farm cottages, we like to think it's a holiday home from home for you.

Some of our dog-friendly accommodation have outside taps for cleaning the inevitable muddy or sandy paw (and boots).

And appreciating that every dog has their own favourite bowl, bed and towel, we ask owners to bring these with them to ensure a waggy-tailed, dog-friendly holiday on the Isle of Wight.

Walkies!

And we are not alone in recognising man’s best friend.

The Island is one of the most dog-friendly regions of the UK with over 500 miles of footpaths, through acres of beautiful and unspoilt downland and woodland - all to be explored and sniffed out, plus outstanding award winning beaches to be scampered on! Along the way you'll find a wide range of eateries and attractions that are happy to host you and your pooch.

Why not check out our very own Tapnell Trail, a 6.5 mile circular walk that runs through the farm, perfect for dog walks with the family. Dogs can be let off the lead to run free in most parts - just look out for signs where some fields have livestock and dogs may need to be back on the lead.
