Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 6 - Arnside, Cumbria

Enjoy a holiday with your dogs and a mixed group. This property, which is part of a larger holiday complex, is a great spot for a family and their grandparents to spend some quality time together, seeing the beautiful Lake District and going for days out at the nearby Silverdale Beach. Walk into the property and see a lounge/diner.

It's a nice place for everyone to relax together, perhaps over a board game or a meal. You can see glimpses of the building's past in the exposed bricks and wooden beams, and you can make everything snuggly by turning the electric fire on. The kitchen connects easily to the diner, so preparing and serving food is convenient.

Go upstairs, where you'll find a family bathroom with a shower over the bath, and two bedrooms. There's one twin room and a double bedroom. If you walk up a few more steps, you'll see the final bedroom, which is flexible and can either be organised as a twin or a super-king-size.

It's got a wide window with a gorgeous view of the surrounding area. The property has a private patio, then there's a shared area with a BBQ and outdoor furniture, and finally, you can play on the field. This has a football pitch and a dog agility area.

There are plenty of activities around to suit all tastes. The Yorkshire Dales National Park (16.5 miles) and the Lake District National Park (7.5 miles) are both lovely places to walk, cycle, climb and explore. Alternatively, head to Silverdale (3 miles) for a village and a beach, or Carnforth (5.5 miles), which is a market town with dog-friendly pubs.
