Are dogs accepted at Water’s Edge?

This depends. I am a dog lover, but I hate cleaning up after other people’s dogs (as most people do).

I have a good customer base both with and without dogs who wish to come back to Water’s Edge.

So, if your dog is not too big, not too loud and is trained then yes.

Bear in mind that there is a lake in front of Water’s Edge, so your dog may take a swim and come inside and shake themselves off leaving hours of window cleaning etc.

If you can respect the need to clean up after your dog then that is great and your dog will be welcome (my dog is always with me at Watersedge, in and out of the boats and guests sometimes take him for walks and in the boats).

Some guests do not like coming to a property that has had a pet in it and so we have to keep to very high standards of hygiene and cleanliness between guests.

Please bear all of this in mind and try to vacuum up your pets hair. The cabin has wooden floors so this is easy.

Dogs are not allowed on the sofa or beds and are not to stay in the property on their own.

Please bring a dog bed with you and some towels to dry them off if they have been in the water.

All of the above is obvious to most pet owners who have taken their dogs away with them.

If your dog does any damage then your are responsible for the cost of putting things right.

Please please  remove any dog soil from the garden before you leave Watersedge.

Your £100 deposit will be returned to you on your departure.

In 8 years of running a holiday cottage I have had only a handful of issues with pets that have come on holiday Scratched doors and floor etc,,

Only small dogs are allowed – usually only one, although I will sometimes consider two small dogs if there is only a small party of humans (e.g. 2 adults).

No powerful dogs are accepted due to the wooden floors in the property, as these can be scratched by big paws!

If you have any queries then please do not hesitate to phone me and discuss any issues.
