Today we’ve been looking at some pet friendly cottages which can make a great alternative to pet friendly lodge breaks.
Any pet owner will know just how important it is to bring along our four legged friends when we’re away from home. There’s nothing better than having them around and going for long countryside walks where they can run around, but sometimes it can be a challenge to find a great holiday cottage that’s pet friendly. Take a look at our top picks for pet friendly holiday cottages on the Yorkshire coast for some holiday inspiration with your pets.

There’s also a patio with French doors and excellent amenities with elegant décor throughout.
