Holiday cottages in England are great for the many possibilities afforded to travelers. Classic cottages are cheaper as renters pay for the whole residence and not just a room. Visitors from other areas and lands can decide how many people are staying as well as the freedom to decide what to do and when. Cottages are often private residences being rented out as additional income. Being located away from the hustle and bustle of the city, sightseers are afforded more privacy than staying in a pricey hotel. These types of rentals are also more accommodating when it comes to bringing pets. Although not all cottages allow pets, accepting pets is greatly encouraged in these parts. Travelers are bound to see one which will accommodate the needs of the entire family and pets.
When taking pets such as dogs to stay in a classic cottage in the UK, there are a number of considerations for owners. Pets should always remain under the control of the owner and family, regardless of whether they are on or off the area of the cottage. There are areas outside the premises of the cottage which may not allow pets so it is best to be aware of signs along the other properties. For families that need to travel with their pets, the month and season must also be considered. Some beaches tend to be off limits especially during the peak summer months which can limit the areas available for travel.
Homeowners of the cottage also have their own rules when it comes to accepting pets. They are normally strict when it comes to permitting any type of pets in the bedroom or on furniture. Pets should constantly be under the owner’s supervision to reduce the risk of any damage to the homeowner’s property. Some properties have gardens where pets may roam however there is no assurance that the fencing will keep the pets from escaping. Owners should also be responsible enough to clean up after their pets.
Another requirement is that the pet’s treatments and vaccinations should be up to date prior to travelling. Pets should be treated for fleas and other infectious diseases so as not to transmit them to other pets or livestock in the area. Much like a stay in a hotel, there is a separate charge for allowing pets into the cottage. Charges each week or short break stay can start from £20 onwards.
Cottages available for rent during the holidays or any time of the year are plenty in England. Here, Cornwall is the county with the most well known when it comes to country cottages. Arguably, it is the area with the most number of available cottages for rent. Regions such as Devon and Dorset have their own unique charm and something distinct to offer to encourage travelers to make their through these areas. Keep in mind that some cottages also have restrictions to the ages of children allowed. Changeovers vary from either Friday or Saturday to accommodate short break travelers. 
When looking for classic cottages, Devon has a large variety to choose from. Most allow children although a handful of cottages have certain age restrictions. Forda Hayloft has the most stringent restriction, only allowing children over three to stay in their classic cottages. Dorset is one of the more secluded areas. Homeowners here only allow travelers to bring in one pet in their classic cottages. Wales, located on the borders of England, has more to offer. For a limited time, the Carmathenshire Cottage is offering travelers 20 percent discount for a week’s stay. The area is great for hiking and bird watching, perfect for entertaining kids and the family pet.
