Brean, Somerset

An eight sleeper at Brean with a fully enclosed lawn big enough for garden games, two dogs welcome, and seven miles of sand a mile away.

A fully enclosed garden with enough lawn for garden games is a specification that suits eight people and two dogs about equally, and The Castle at Brean has it, with a children's climbing frame thrown in. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms.

Brean Beach sits one and two tenths of a mile off, and the sands run seven miles south from Brean Down to Burnham. This is flat hard sand on a scale that is difficult to convey: at low tide the sea withdraws a very long way and what is left is effectively a beach the size of a small county. Berrow Sands is two and eight tenths and an eight in our book, Weston-super-Mare three and a tenth, Burnham four and six tenths. Few beaches in England give a dog more room.

Two dogs across eight people. Eighteen guest ratings. What Brean offers a dog is simply room, more of it than almost anywhere else on this list, and a garden of this size means they arrive home to somewhere they can still stretch out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is The Castle dog friendly?
Yes, The Castle welcomes up to two dogs. The property has a fully enclosed garden with a good stretch of lawn, so your dogs have space to roam safely when you're not out exploring — and Brean Beach, with its famous seven miles of flat hard sand, is just over a mile away.
Are dogs allowed at The Castle year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, but we'd recommend confirming directly with the owner when you book, as policies can sometimes vary by time of year.
What should I know before visiting The Castle with my dog?
The property accommodates a maximum of two dogs, so it's worth bearing that in mind if you're travelling with a group. The fully enclosed garden is a real plus for keeping dogs secure, and Brean Beach — just 1.2 miles away — offers an extraordinary amount of space for a run, with the tide going out a very long way and the sands stretching seven miles in total.
