Previous Next Up Topic Dog Boards / General / Doggie holidays - Cherry Barn in Frome, Somerset

We have just come back from Maisie and Bill's annual holiday in this lovely cottage and it was brilliant.  The cottage was spacious (enough room for four people + mutts) and very well equipped - washing machine, tumble dryer, decent oven, fridge, TV (with freeview) DVD, two sofas in living room space (kitchen/dinner/living room) and Maisie and Billy enjoyed chasing one another around and around the sofas!!!  The garden was reasonably large and Sharon and Andy (owners) put some extra wood down to make it extra terrier proof.  There are lovely doggie walks virtually on site - a lovely field beyond a gate which leads to a longer walk.  Being in Frome, it is nice and central to lots of lovely places to take the dogs: Longleat, several country parks, Berrow beach (near Burnham on Sea) and you can also drive into Wiltshire too.  It was also spotlessly clean and tidy. 

Very dog friendly.  Sharon runs a training school (obedience and agility etc.) on site.  There are pictures of dogs all over the walls of the cottage.  All she asks is that you cover the sofas with throws and try and put the dyson around a few times just to keep it reasonably hair free.  Although the carpets are light coloured (which I was a bit worried about at first), they hoover up really well and are easy to keep clean and dust free.  Dogs are not charged for!

Note that the gate and fence around the barn has now changed and is secure for smaller dogs.

we're off there for the second time in January.  Its a fantastic place and we use it to chill with the dogs (3 x BCs) and to relieve some of the stress.  Sharon is wonderful and cant do a enough for you.  Wholeheartedly recommended.

Thanks, what a lovely holiday cottage, so nice to see something that looks fresh, clean and modern and will take dogs and does not do the usual extra charges for more than one dog, I shall pass it on to friends too, whoops they might be fully booked for the next 5 years. :-)

I dont think there is a limit but I imagine its within reason.  I know I have seen photos of someone there with about 5 small breeds.

Thats good that you had a great time. We have booked this cottage for 2 weeks next year, so really looking forward to it now. Sounds marvellous!!!
