Your dog will love a cottage holiday in Bowness on Windemere
This lively lakeside town is a great choice for a holiday or a few days away, and our dog-friendly holiday cottages in Bowness-on-Windemere are the perfect base to enjoy the beauty of the Lake District.
Bowness itself is set on the largest lake in England and is within easy reach of the attractions of the area. Whether you want to get away from it all in the great outdoors, cool off by the lakeside, or enjoy epic woodland walks, you'll find plenty of things you and your dog can enjoy.
Dog-friendly things to do
Take a cruise.
Windemere Lake Cruises have a year-round dog-friendly policy, and well-behaved dogs travel for free. Water is provided, and you'll find refreshment zones on many of the piers.
Wander in Wordsworth's footsteps
A visit to the childhood home of one of our favourite poets is a must, and you'll find this National Trust property accommodates your dog beautifully. They're not allowed everywhere, but the gardens are great, and water is supplied. There are some cracking walks nearby too, so you if you're visiting in a group you can take it in turns to visit the house while your dog gets double walkies. Head here in the spring, when the 'Host of golden daffodils' really brings Wordsworth's epic poem to life.
As well as Bowness on Windermere, we have a wide range of dog friendly cottages in the Lake District available.
