Things to do on a multi dog friendly holiday
Not sure what to do or where to visit on your multi dog friendly holiday? There are so many great dog friendly places to visit, and here is a list of some of our favourites:
-
Explore national parks and heritage sites. There are so many beautiful gardens, historic sites, and scenic walks for you and your pups to discover, wherever you’re staying.Â
-
Visit dog friendly beaches and go for coastal walks. There’s something about breathing in that fresh sea breeze that can’t be beaten. And the dogs will love frolicking in the sand and sea, too!
-
Enjoy a meal at a dog friendly pub or restaurant. Wherever you are in the UK, there are thousands of dog friendly pub gardens and restaurants that will happily welcome four-legged family members. In fact, some holiday park restaurants even offer doggy menus, so they can enjoy a meal with you!

Top tips for a successful multiple dog holiday
Travelling with multiple dogs can be challenging. To make the planning easier, here are some tips to help you find the right accommodation and make the journey as stress-free as possible for your pooches.
-
Pick the right property. Just because a property says it allows dogs, doesn’t always mean they allow multiple dogs at once. At Away Resorts, our dog friendly accommodation options allow up to two dogs per property, so your canine chums can join you on your travels. And with dog friendly restaurants and activities on-site, we don’t just allow dogs. We love them!
-
Make sure the outside space is secure. Dogs love to run and explore, but the last thing you need is one of them getting loose. Make sure wherever you book has a secure outdoor space so you can enjoy your stay without worrying.
-
Consider your dogs’ temperaments and behaviours. Do they get stressed by crowded spaces or unknown locations? Are they easily frightened? This will help you determine the best location and accommodation option for you and your pups.
-
Stick to their routines. Suddenly being in a new place with new smells and sounds can be overwhelming for dogs, but sticking to their usual routines can help them acclimatise e.g. feeding times, walk times etc.
-
Don’t leave them alone in the accommodation. Not only can it cause unnecessary stress for your dogs, but most accommodations don’t allow them to be left unattended, so it’s best to keep them with you at all times.
-
Take comforts from home. Whether it’s a favourite toy or a beloved blanket, your dogs will appreciate having something familiar that smells like home.
-
Finally, take lots of pictures! These are memories that will last a lifetime, so make sure to capture the moment. If you post on social media and tag @awayresortsholidays and #waggingaway, your pooch may even feature on our social media channels!Â
