Is Cosy Coach Cottage dog friendly?

Yes, Cosy Coach Cottage welcomes up to two dogs. The cottage has an enclosed garden accessed through wide double patio doors, which makes coming and going with dogs genuinely easy throughout the day.

Are dogs allowed at Cosy Coach Cottage year round?

The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's worth contacting the owners directly to confirm availability for your dates. What we do know is that the setup — enclosed garden, wide patio doors, good walking nearby — suits dogs whatever the season.

What should I know before visiting Cosy Coach Cottage with my dog?

The cottage takes a maximum of two dogs, so if you're travelling with more it's worth checking with the owners before booking. The enclosed garden is a real practical asset, and the surrounding area offers good variety for dog walks — Soudley Ponds is a flat, quiet circuit around a chain of small lakes just 2.4 miles up the valley, and the Forest of Dean and the River Severn are both close by.

Cosy Coach Cottage is a charming, beautifully presented stone cottage in the friendly village of Blakeney, within the wonderful Forest of Dean, a haven for walkers and cyclists with a wide range of trails to explore. It sleeps five and welcomes a pair of dogs, and there is as much to enjoy outside this dog friendly cottage as in.

Inside, a large lounge welcomes you with two comfy sofas, a sturdy reading chair and a cosy electric fire, where the dogs stretch out while a film plays on the 43 inch Smart TV. Novels, guidebooks, maps, toys and board games fill the evenings. The characterful kitchen pairs bespoke crafted cupboards with modern fittings, a range cooker and a contemporary six seater dining suite, while through an archway lies the garden room, a lovely retreat for a good book. Upstairs, a double and a super-king look out over a country lane, the single looks onto the garden, and the bathroom offers a relaxing bath as well as its walk in shower.

Double patio doors open to the enclosed garden, a real suntrap laid out on several levels with old railway sleepers, flagstones, brick walling and slate. There is a coffee table with parasol and sunchairs, a cosy summerhouse, a gas BBQ and a six seater table under a canopy, so the dogs can doze in a sunny spot from mid morning until evening.

The forest trails make wonderful walking with the dogs, and bike hire is 5 miles from the door. Puzzlewood, the ancient woodland seen on screen, Clearwell Caves and Go Ape are all close, and Symonds Yat, 16 miles away overlooking the River Wye, is a lovely place for a waterside walk.
