1 / 24Badgers Rake
Woolston, Somerset
Eleven people and four dogs for five hundred and seventy three pounds, in a six bedroom house between the Quantocks and the sea.
Eleven people, six bedrooms and four dogs for five hundred and seventy three pounds is the most extraordinary piece of arithmetic on this entire list. Badgers Rake sits at Woolston in west Somerset with countryside views from every bedroom.
Four dogs across eleven people means three or four households can travel together and nobody leaves a dog at home, which is the single hardest thing to arrange in this whole category. Kilve Beach is three and six tenths of a mile and we mark it eight, blue lias ledges and fossil pools at low tide. East Quantoxhead is three and four tenths, Watchet three miles with its harbour, and Cleeve Abbey three and two tenths.
Two bathrooms between eleven people is the trade, and it is a real one worth settling with your group in advance. Twenty four guest ratings. But for a large gathering where several dogs are coming, there is nothing else on this list that takes them all for this money.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Badgers Rake dog friendly?
Yes, Badgers Rake welcomes up to four dogs, which is one of the most generous allowances you'll find for a self-catering property. That capacity means three or four households can travel together without anyone having to leave a dog behind — genuinely rare for a group stay.
Are dogs allowed at Badgers Rake year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's best to check directly with the property when booking. If you're planning a large group trip with multiple dogs, it's always worth confirming the details ahead of time.
What should I know before visiting Badgers Rake with my dog?
The house sleeps eleven across six bedrooms, so there's plenty of space for a multi-dog group to spread out. Kilve Beach is just under four miles away and rated highly, with blue lias ledges and fossil pools to explore at low tide — great for a dog walk with a bit of extra interest. One practical thing worth discussing with your group before arrival: there are only two bathrooms for eleven people, so a bit of coordination goes a long way.
