A dog-friendly holiday cottage, with 80 hectares for your dog

One pet per cottage, footpaths starting a hundred metres from the gate, and nobody to complain about a bark. Here is what to know before you come.

Both cottages accept one pet per stay, with a supplement of €15 a week. This is not grudging tolerance: here a dog is not a logistical problem, it is one more resident on a farm that already has plenty.

The property covers 80 hectares (about 200 acres), part of it in shared use, with woodland and meadowland. Walking trails start a hundred metres from the house. You will not need the car to walk your dog.

What to know before booking

  • Pets accepted One per cottage
  • Supplement €15 a week
  • Grounds 80 hectares, shared use
  • Footpaths 100 m from the gate
  • Livestock guardian dogs Two, in fenced paddocks with the goats

Two things worth knowing, because they genuinely matter

Two livestock guardian dogs live on the property, in fenced paddocks, with their goats. They are not sheepdogs: their job is to guard the herd. If your dog does not get on with others, say so when booking: Corine will point you to the walks that keep clear of the paddocks.

There are around thirty Rove goats, three donkeys and horses in the meadows. A dog chasing livestock is a serious matter in the countryside. Keep your dog on the lead near the enclosures — as much for its own sake as for the animals'.


Which cottage to choose with a dog

Both take dogs, but one is better suited.

The living room at Le Buis, the detached cottage, with the fire lit

Le Buis, if your dog barks

A fully detached building with its own entrance and private parking. Nobody above, nobody next door. The obvious choice if you worry about disturbing anyone.

Le Buis
The living room at Le Cèdre, which adjoins the owner's house

Le Cèdre, if your dog is calm

Adjoining Corine's own house, but self-contained, with its own entrance, covered terrace and 50 m² garden. Barking carries from one house to the other: a calm dog will be perfectly at home here.

Le Cèdre

What one guest says

“Ideal for nature lovers who want to spend time with the goats, horses and donkeys, and in the lavender fields.”
