Is Crinkle Cottage dog friendly?

Yes, Crinkle Cottage welcomes up to two dogs. The cottage has an enclosed garden with a decked seat, and the beach is just a few minutes away on foot.

Are dogs allowed at Crinkle Cottage year round?

The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so it's best to confirm directly with the owners when booking. What we can say is that the setup — two fires, a ground floor bathroom, and an enclosed garden — lends itself well to a dog-friendly stay at any time of year.

What should I know before visiting Crinkle Cottage with my dog?

The good news is that everything a dog needs is on the ground floor: the bathroom, kitchen, both fires, and the door to the enclosed garden. The cottage has steep stairs, including a narrow flight to the top room, but dogs that prefer to stay on the ground floor won't need to tackle them at all.

Crinkle Cottage is a Victorian property whose period features have been given a stylish contemporary update, a few minutes' walk from Whitstable's beach and harbour. It sleeps four across three bedrooms. Bring two dogs: this is a dog friendly cottage with the whole town within a short walk of its front door.

That front door opens straight into one long open plan room, lounge to the fore and diner behind. The lounge end has comfortable seating, a gas fireplace and a Smart TV, and past the stairs the dining area is a lovely light filled space with a large table, and a cosy wood burner close enough for two dogs to doze beside while supper is served. Beyond it, the galley kitchen is equipped with everything you need.

Upstairs, two pleasant doubles keep some attractive original features, and higher still the attic has been converted into a light and airy room with its own Smart TV. The enclosed garden behind the cottage has a decked seating area with patio furniture for drinks and meals outside, the dogs pottering round the table, and a gate at the far end lets guests bring bikes round. Come December, Crinkle Cottage is dressed for Christmas.

Harbour Street and the high street are lined with independent shops selling clothes, gifts, books and homeware, alongside specialist food shops and an impressive choice of restaurants, gastropubs and cafes, dog friendly pubs and restaurants among them. The pretty beach curves round the bay to Tankerton, where two rows of colourful beach huts line the gently sloping shingle, and the dogs can come along when Canterbury, a short drive off, calls for a day.

We research every description carefully and believe it to be accurate, but details can change. Please confirm anything important, especially dog rules, with the booking agent or property owner before you book.
