Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Dumfries

We had a fantastic few days away in this house. there was plenty of space for two families of four and a dog. The enclosed garden and garden furniture were a great addition, especially as the weather was lovely while we were there. Would definitely book again in the future.

Absolutely loved my stay; I’ve been coming to the Lakes for over 20 years and this place is the ultimate cosy retreat, just what you want to come back to after a long day out walking. The property has everything you need and is very dog friendly; I always come armed with blankets and towels but it makes it so much easier not having to worry about carpets and the coat stand came in very handy for drying things. The location is great; I arrived much later than planned in the dark and found it no problem. It feels very peaceful and private but Windermere high street is within walking distance. I will definitely be back again, thank you for a great stay!

This was a lovely wee house and we enjoyed our 2 nights there. We had a wonderful evening at the Farmers Arms, which I highly recommend. It is a 2 mile walk but completely worth it. The local Chinese was top notch as well.

Very good stay. Nice surroundings. Great area to go for walks.

My family and I stayed in Haylie’s property for a nearby wedding. The property was exactly as described, with plenty of character, comfortable bedrooms and clean bathrooms. Haylie provided everything guests could need and want for a stay, including toiletries and a well stocked kitchen. There are plenty of mirrors too for those groups needing to get ready for a special occasion. The area is very peaceful, with the nearest beach a short distance away. A lovely spot to have a cup of tea in the morning and listen to the birds! The nearest large supermarket is about 10 minutes away. I would recommend for couples and large parties looking to stay in the area. Thanks Haylie!

The cottage was exactly as described. The owners were very communicative and we had no issues during our stay at all. It is a great location, nice and quiet very close to Kielder Water and Forest Park.

Wonderful place in a perfect location of Keswick. A short walking distance to the shops and the lake. Certainly enjoyed taking the dog out for his walk with all the parks near by and a stroll to see beautiful views of Derwent water. The beds were comfy and the place was nice and cosy. A good variety of entertainment in games and books for the kids as well as ourselves. Having our own parking space was very convenient. We saw a lot of cars taking forever looking for one. I will definitely look at staying again when we next visit 😀

This was my first time using Airbnb, and it was a great experience. The location was perfect—close enough to Keswick for an easy drive, yet far enough to enjoy some peace and quiet. My only regret is not booking a longer stay.

The caravan was tastefully decorated, sparkling clean and right by the little pond - definitely the best spot in the holiday park! It had all the equipment we needed and there was lots to do for the children around the holiday park as well. Can't fault it really..

A fabulous cottage in a stunning setting. Three of us went for Easter weekend and had the best time. Great to have your own hot tub and the other facilities are more than worth the extra charge. We really enjoyed the swimming pool! We had an issue with the oven on our first night and after mentioning this to the hosts it was replaced by a brand new oven the next morning in the couple of hours we were planning to be out sightseeing. It didn't affect our stay and we thought it summed up how helpful and responsive our hosts were. Jacqui and Lenny were amazing and really look after the guests that were there during our stay. Do not hesitate to book, we will be going back 🙂

Thanks John for a excellent stay, your place was perfect for all our needs

We spent 5 nights here at the end of March and start of April 2025. We were really fortunate with the weather and took full advantage of the wonderful location: scaling Slight Side and Scafell on one day, riding to Coniston via the bridleway on another and 'bagging' most of the Coniston fells on another day via Wrynose Pass. We ate in on a couple of nights and also went to the Wainwright's for some pub grub, as well as Stoves for their evening menu. Simon and Belinda's place is very well situated in Great Langdale for all kinds of walks and rides, food and decent pints. The house itself is a lovely place to return to in the evening with easy parking outside for our van and once inside, everything is spotless, well equipped and cosy. We really appreciated all the helpful information on bike routes and walking routes and spent the late evenings by the fire pouring over the Wainwright books planning the next day's adventures. 100% recommended.

Great lodge situated right at the top of the site, within 2 minutes of a small walk with panoramic views of the valleys. Bedding was super soft & so were the towels, comfy bed, great sleep. Beautiful surroundings to wake up to and sit outdoors with a coffee listening to the birds. Dog friendly! Comfortable sofa! Lots of utensils and plates.

Had a family weekend which was great from start to finish. The lodge was lovely, clean and actually better than described. Beautiful surroundings with lovely pub for food. Swimming pool was great too. Overall amazing experience - thank you, Sarah.

Had such a lovely stay, lodge was very clean and the host was lovely and so helpful, we will definitely return and recommend to family and friends

A really lovely cabin with everything you need for enjoying a few days in the Lakes. We loved the location, very close to Ambleside and not far from Grasmere and Windermere for shops. Loads of nice trails available as soon as you leave the estate. We stayed with two kids and it was perfect, would love to visit again!

Fantastic location for various activities, we were really pleased with the amount of space and how well presented the accommodation is. Very short walk to the pub for great food and good beer too so that was a plus. A few questions pre booking answered swiftly and accurately, nice touch with some basic provisions in the kitchen to help us (tea / coffee) :) thanks again , great stay!! We will be back I’m sure!!!

We had such a lovely stay! It was well located for getting out for local walks and was wonderful to come back to at the end of the day (the hot tub and sauna were wonderful after a day hiking!). The place had everything we needed and Jane and Steve were really helpful - thank you!

Mel was a very helpful and friendly host. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed for a quiet and peaceful break. Particularly good for the dog with the garden being fully enclosed and free to roam.

Christopher’s house was very welcoming and dog friendly. His dog had even left a couple of balls for my dogs to play with. Although close to a busy road, the garden was well fenced in and safe. The house is beautifully decorated. And the location is very close to some great trails. Thanks Christopher

we loved our stay in Longtown. Andrea's caravan was absolutely spotless, so comfortable and spacious for the 4 of us and our lab dog. the property have everything we needed. Beds were comfortable. The shower was FANTASTIC! normally I dread caravan showers but this was bliss. Communication was ideal. Always a really prompt reply. We would love to book again.

We had the best time so much so that whilst we were still there we have already booked to come back in August. Jade and James were extremely friendly and great with the kids. They went above and beyond to make our time there special. Amazing views and lovely waking up to see the animals in the fields. The kids loved seeing the farm dogs. Very peaceful and private. Would highly recommend.

The cottage is in an idyllic location, so peaceful and quiet. The access to the cottage was interesting but this is clear when you book so wasn't a surprise! Would definitely stay again. Thank you

We stopped here for only 1 night en route to the Isle of Arran, we wished we could stay longer. A beautiful location, spotless, with a wonderful set up. It's a fabulous stay, we would highly recommend it!
