just started planning our summer holidays, there is about 9 of us going and were hoping to hire a dog friendly cottage maybe in the lake district.Does anyone else do this so you can take your dogs away? if so where do you go? were undecided between the lake district and scotland be nice to have some ideas or recommends thanks

Look at this link for dog friendly holidays in Scotland.

Not sure if this helps but we went to scotland a while back, we was un-able to take the dogs. But was amazed at how dog freindly they are, and the veiws/walks are amazing. We are planning to take our dogs on holiday in 2009 and plan to go to scotland as long as your dog is well behaved etc they are even allowed in some public houses etc. The people are freindly we really enjoyed it would deffinatly take my dogs given half the chance.....

A friend of mine and her Obedience Friends have gone on holidays together. They always get references from each place they stay as they take about 20 dogs.

Most places wouldn't consider a large number of dogs but with the references are often more accommodating. they always leave the grounds and cottages cleaner than they found them.

Here is a picture of the group by the sea:

For those who don't believe Elkhounds can do Obedience

thanks for the ideas, i want to go to scotland but i think i might be out voted, i think it looks like the lake district tho, we got two children under 2 aswell just want somewhere that suits everyone

i like the pictures too bet it was hard work away with all them to look after

What a FAB photo. That must have been quite a feat to get them all standing to attention lol

I was told not they were just told to stay while the owners had a pit stop.

The Border Terriers are the Elkhounds best buds, they have a natural affinity and similar outlook on life.

Anyone fancy a holiday in wales here is a brilliant place to stay HolidaysForDogs-Contents

Hi Claire I hope to go abroad this year and with you being in Mansfield I was wondering if you could look after my dog. It would only be for a month or so.
