1 / 24Moat Cottage
Whichford, Warwickshire
A contemporary cottage for four in the Cotswold village of Whichford, with a wood burner, an enclosed rear garden, an outside tap for muddy paws and one dog welcome.
Moat Cottage is a peaceful village home in Whichford, in the North Cotswolds, and a network of footpaths surrounds it for exploring on foot or by bike. It sleeps four, one dog is welcome, and with an enclosed rear garden and an outside tap for washing down muddy paws, this dog friendly cottage is ready for the walk home.
Coats and shoes are left in the hallway, and the bright and airy lounge/diner has comfortable seating, a TV with Smart Roku and a wood burner that gives the room a warm, cosy feel, the dog flat out on the floor before it. The dining table makes a fine backdrop to any meal, and the kitchen, off the hallway, has an induction hob, a dishwasher and a washer/dryer.
Upstairs are a beautifully furnished king-size room with spacious storage and a sunny aspect, a twin, and a contemporary bathroom. The enclosed rear garden is a riot of colour in summer, with a table, bench and chairs under the parasol and the charcoal BBQ ready for supper, while the dog noses round the garden and the eight bells of the nearby 12th century church mark the time.
Hook Norton is close, the National Trust's Upton House, Charlecote Park and Chastleton House are within reach, and Chipping Norton, Moreton-in-Marsh, Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on-the-Water make easy days out. The Rollright Stones, Broughton Castle and the Civil War battlefield of Edgehill are all worth a visit, and the footpaths around the village give the dog fresh ground every morning.

Book with holidaycottages.co.ukFrequently Asked Questions
Is Moat Cottage dog friendly?
Yes, Moat Cottage welcomes one dog. The cottage has an enclosed rear garden, so your dog can head outside freely without needing to be on a lead every time you open the back door.
Are dogs allowed at Moat 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 can say is that with a wood burner, an enclosed garden and woodland a mile away, it works well as a dog-friendly base in any season.
What should I know before visiting Moat Cottage with my dog?
The cottage accepts one dog, so it's not suitable for households with multiple dogs. The enclosed rear garden is a real practical bonus, and Whichford Wood — old woodland with wide rides cut through it — is just a mile east if your dog needs a proper run out.
