Do you take Dogs?

We have never accepted dogs before, but we absolutely love our furry friends and so we are doing a trial run of taking one small, well behaved dog in our new Shepherd’s hut Tom’s. 

We just ask that the dog is not left unattended in the hut, is kept on a lead on the farm and is not let on the beds. Of course, we have to be careful as there are farm animals about, and our own dog, Monty! 

Please just get in touch to let us know if you are planning to bring a dog! 

What extras can you provide?
