Paw-fect Retreat
Our dog-friendly cottage in the Lake District sits on the outskirts of Torver village, along a peaceful single-track road. There are no neighbours around except sheep and cows, creating a tranquil setting. With walking routes right at your doorstep and pet-friendly enclosed gardens, it’s the perfect getaway for pet owners. Plus, after a day of exploring, you can unwind in the private hot tub, surrounded by nature’s beauty.
This cosy Lake District dog-friendly cottage is within walking distance to a deli, a pet-friendly pub—The Wilson Arms and Undercrag Cafe and Studio—and a studio that also welcomes furry friends. The pub has a large beer garden and play area for kids and pets.
Exploring Torver and Beyond
Just half a mile from the cottage Hollace, the small village of Torver welcomes you with its charming atmosphere. For those willing to venture a bit further, a short 3-mile drive or walk takes you to the bustling village of Coniston. You can walk along the old railway line track that transported slate, copper, and later tourists back in the day. This track is perfect for a dog walk.
Here, dining options abound, with various eateries and welcoming pubs waiting to satisfy your culinary cravings. The retail stores and boating centres provide something for everyone.
They offer a variety of activities, such as canoeing and stand-up paddleboarding. These activities are perfect for people looking for adventure. Some willing pooches may join you in a canoe.
Take a cruise around Coniston Water on Coniston Launch with your dog. Disembark at Torver Jetty and enjoy a leisurely walk back to your dog-friendly holiday cottage – Beautiful Hollace.
Walker’s, Sailor’s and Rider’s Paradise
Our cottage offers a stunning view of the Old Man of Coniston and Dow Crag. This makes it an ideal location for those who enjoy walking and climbing.
