Dog-Friendly Self-Catering Cottages in Norfolk

Find The Pawfect Holiday Accommodation for Your Family 

Do you need a fully enclosed outside area? Does all on one level suit you? How about a warm dog shower to wash those sandy paws? Want to be near the beach? 

How about a dog-friendly pub nearby? You can search for these and more to suit the size of your pack (all our cottages welcome at least 3 for free!)

Sea views, wifi, super kind beds, grass gardens, wood burners and more - you can choose just what you are looking for. And you can search for reactive dog-friendly properties too!

Their very dog-friendly properties sleep from 2 to 12 and include annexes, converted barns, family homes, an Arts and Crafts house, and seaside cottages and riverside cabins on the Norfolk Broads.

They are all in a selection of east Norfolk villages including Hickling, Sea Palling, Happisburgh, Hickling and Winterton, East Ruston, Lessingham and Potter Heigham and none very far away from the wonderful quiet coastline here and the Norfolk Broads.  

Below are just a few examples.... take a look at the website www.eastrustoncottages.co.uk to see more.

 Lighthouse Cottage

Single Storey Luxury Barn Conversion

Sleeps Max 4 | Bedrooms 2 | Bathrooms 2 | Dogs 4

The Lighthouse Cottage has been thoughtfully finished to a high standard and is perfect for couples or older families to go away together, as both bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms.

The Lodge, East Ruston

Single-storey, detached, modern and well equipped

Sleeps 2 | Bedrooms 1 | Bathrooms 1 | Max Dogs 4

Detached, single-storey conversion finished to a very high standard and sleeps 2 + Sofabed for up to 2 more.
Set right back from a quiet lane in a sleepy village this is a very peaceful place to stay.  Fully enclosed garden with decking and garden furniture.
Parking right outside the door and all on one level mean this is a suitable place for people with mobility problems too!
Walks from the door onto the Weavers Way and the beaches are a short drive away. 

Milestone barn, Gimingham

Sleeps 4 | Bedrooms 2 | Bathroom 1 | Max Dogs: 4 but flexible!

Stylish and charming open plan barn conversion on one level, on a designated Quiet Lane, and just off the Paston Way. Double and twin rooms, fully enclosed garden, and off-road parking.

Heather Cottage, Happisburgh

Sleeps 5 | 3 Bedrooms | Bathrooms 1 | Max Dogs 5

Heather Cottage is a stylish but comfortable three-bedroom cottage in one of the most popular villages in this area - Happisburgh. 

It's not only a hop, skip and a jump from the local dog-friendly pub, The Hill House, but a lovely stroll to the dog-friendly, sandy beach and plenty of easy countryside walks. The garden is enclosed and dogs are most welcome. The owners live in the village and have 4 dogs of their own so they completely understand how important it is to be properly dog-friendly.
The village also boasts a small shop, a wonderful fresh fish shop, some beautiful old buildings and a lot of history...plus plenty of peace and quiet.

Hidden Gem, Winterton

A Charming Cottage Sleeps 4 | Bedrooms 2 | Bathrooms 1 | Max Dogs: 4 but flexible

2 Bedroom cottage (double with a sea view and twin room) has the famously dog-friendly Winterton Dunes literally at the back doorstep to enjoy miles of walks on the sandy beach.  It's only a short walk to the dog-friendly pub, cafe, and shop (and fish and chips!). Understandably one of our most popular houses!

Rooster Barn, Trunch

Sleeps 4 | Bedrooms 2 | Bathrooms 2 | Max Dogs: UNLIMITED

A beautiful barn conversion at the end of a private drive. Large secure fenced garden. Ground floor double ensuite bedroom + kingsize/twin room in the rafters. 
Hook up point for a caravan too!  Seriously dog-friendly and very popular.

St Benets, Sea Palling

Sleeps 10 | 5 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | Max Dogs Unlimited

St Benets is a very nicely appointed family house, well furnished and a very short walk from the sandy Blue Flag beach at Sea Palling, a small seaside resort with a dog-friendly pub, village shop, fish and chips, dog-friendly cafe and one small amusement arcade.

The beach is protected by rock reefs which form calmer areas of water along the main part of the beach and are ideal for swimming. It is perfect for dog walking and whilst there are restrictions in place from May to September it is only to the left of the access ramp; to the right, you can walk the dogs for miles on the beach and in the dunes and stop off at nearby Waxham Barns for a coffee or further on to Nelson's Head at Horsey for a drink. Seals are a common sight along this stretch of coast.

The house has a contemporary and elegant feel but also manages to be homely and comfortable with many of the original Victorian features retained.
It can sleep up to 12 in 5 bedrooms, although an ideal number would probably be between 6 and 10.
