Dog Friendly Self Catering Holidays

Here at Elms Farm we know that your dog is an important member of your family who you want to share your holiday with. Dogs are welcome in 7 of our 9 holiday cottages, we have over 18 acres of private grass paddocks with mown walkways around two small lakes for you to exercise your dogs.

Opposite our cottages is a riverside walk and by walking towards Boston the path leads to Oldrids Downtown and Tesco (about 2 miles), whilst walking in the opposite direction will lead you to The Barge pub and restaurant at Swineshead Bridge (about 3.5 miles). The Wheatsheaf pub at Hubberts Bridge is a dog friendly pub and well behaved dogs can sit with you in the bar area or at the picnic benches outside.

At our cottages you will find an outside tap near the laundry and tourist information room to wash muddy paws and there are spare doggy towels in the laundry for you to dry your dogs. A spare lead and water/feeding bowl is also available.
