Pet Friendly Properties

We are very pleased to be partnering with Suffolk Cottage Holidays. We have held competitions with them in the past, and currently have one running in our magazine “Skinner’s Tails”; be sure to get your paws on one of our magazines to enter the competition for yourself!

Holidaying in the UK is a stress-free way to relax and unwind. Plus, you have the added benefit of being able to bring your pooch with you! The best holiday moments are those shared with loved ones, and the Suffolk countryside has memory-making opportunities for every member of the family to enjoy – even those with padded feet, a furry coat and a wet nose!

With a huge variety of luxury pet-friendly holiday cottages available on the market, here are our pick of the top 10 best pet-friendly holiday cottages in Suffolk:
