The day starts early with a comfort break and a walk through the fields and woodland. Walks take place individually or in family groups to allow us to give our full attention to each guest and to ensure the safety of your dog on their holiday.

The first walk of the day is followed by a check and clean of the kennels, then breakfast and time to relax in the kennel or outdoors run. Mid morning brings a further kennels and welfare check, and the second walk of the day – either ball-play in the paddock or a walk through the woods and field. The dogs have access to the covered outdoor area of their kennel all day, unless it’s particularly cold when we may close down the hatches to keep them warm and cosy inside. We live on site so are able to pop in at any time to calm any guests who may be feeling anxious or need a little extra attention.

Our guests have another walk in the afternoon, then home for the evening meal and a chance to relax and wind down. There’s a shorter walk later in the evening then it’s time for a bedtime treat or biscuit, doors closed to the outside runs, and lights out.

The length and times of walks will vary depending on the daylight hours, the weather and the age and ability of the dog.
