1 / 24Gillyflower At Golant
Golant, Cornwall
A two bedroom cottage for four at Golant, with a large enclosed garden and lawn, a gated sun deck with a private hot tub, a shared indoor pool and three dogs welcome.
A private hot tub on a gated sun deck, a large enclosed garden with a grassed lawn, and an endless heated indoor pool to share on site: Gillyflower has a lot to offer. This cottage in Golant, a popular village on the upper reaches of the Fowey River, sleeps four and welcomes three dogs, a generous dog friendly holiday home.
Indoors, one open plan room takes in comfy seating, a wood burner (logs to start you off are included), the kitchen and the dining table. After a busy day exploring, a film on the TV in front of the fire is the plan, with three dogs sprawled across the hearth. Everyone fits round that table for a home cooked meal. Upstairs, both the master king size room and the twin have an en suite shower room.
The garden is where summer evenings go. The sun deck, gated off within it, holds garden furniture, a barbecue and the hot tub, and the lawn gives three dogs space to stretch out. On site, guests can book time in the shared endless pool, sauna, gym, badminton court and games room with table tennis, and on Fridays through the season the Bar Silo serves drinks and food, with guests welcomed free whenever live music is on.
Lovely walks follow the river from the village, and the dogs will want one every day. Restormel Castle and Lanhydrock are close, Charlestown, seen in Poldark, makes a good lunch stop, and for a day trip there is the Eden Project, or the villages of Looe, Polperro and Lerryn.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Gillyflower At Golant dog friendly?
Yes, and generously so — Gillyflower at Golant accepts up to three dogs, which is a notably high allowance for a two bedroom cottage. The property has a large enclosed garden with two separate levels and a gated sun deck, making it genuinely practical for multiple dogs rather than just technically permitting them.
Are dogs allowed at Gillyflower At Golant year round?
The listing doesn't specify seasonal restrictions on dogs, but as a self-catering cottage rather than a beach with seasonal rules, there's no indication that dog access is limited to certain times of year. We'd recommend confirming directly with the property when you book.
What should I know before visiting Gillyflower At Golant with my dog?
The enclosed garden is a real asset here — two separate levels mean you can manage dogs safely even when doors are open, which makes life noticeably easier with more than one. Golant itself is a small, quiet village on the Fowey estuary, well suited to dogs, and there are several good walks close by including the Fowey to Polkerris coast path at 2.2 miles and the Gribbin Head circular at 2.4 miles.
