How many dogs do you allow?

“How many dogs do you allow in your properties?”

This blog post introduces you to a video that I shot to answer the common question of how many dogs do you allow in your properties? It’s part of our series of ‘You Ask, We Answer’ videos and blogs. They cover loads of our FAQ’s, or Frequently Asked Questions, but with a (we hope) a really helpful deeper dive.

At Woodfarm Barns & Barges, we understand that planning the perfect getaway involves many questions and uncertainties. To help you navigate through these and to ensure you have the best experience possible, we’ve launched our ‘You Ask, We Answer’ initiative. This approach isn’t just about promoting our Barns, Cottages and Barges; it’s about providing valuable information, solutions, and peace of mind to our prospective guests.

Anyway, this is the video, and the transcript is below it if you wish to go back over anything.

This is what I said…

Bringing Your Dogs to Our Holiday Cottages, Barns, and Barges

Welcome to Our Dog-Friendly Accommodation

Hello, it’s Carl here! This little video is all about dogs and the number that we allow at our holiday accommodation. Since we started the business, we have definitely built a strong name for ourselves within the dog owner market. However, first and foremost, our Cottages, Barges, and Barns are for human beings, and we want to make sure that we are not overrun. That said, we are still very, very dog-friendly.

Our Dog Policy

To ensure a pleasant experience for all our guests, we have a limit on the number of dogs allowed. We state that three dogs are very welcome on each Barge, in each Cottage, and in each Barn. However, we do allow some flexibility. If you have more than three dogs, please drop me a line and get in touch. Typically, I will usually say yes to four dogs, but we just want to make sure that we have a limit somewhere.

Booking Your Stay with Dogs

If we say yes to four dogs, here is what you need to do:

  1. Homepage Booking: From our homepage, when you’re booking, you can click on the little button at the side that takes you to our booking page.
  2. Selecting Your Dates: Scroll down to the calendar, pick your preferred dates, and accommodation. For example, choose Gipping Barn for three nights with two adults.
  3. Adding Dogs: Click “Book Now,” which takes you to the next stage. This is where you get asked whether or not you have any dogs. If you don’t have any dogs, just press continue. If you do have dogs, select the number of dogs (up to three) at no charge. If we’ve agreed on four, select three and let me know in the notes that four is okay as per our conversation.

Stay Informed and Connected

I hope this answers your questions about bringing your dogs to our holiday accommodation. If you have any other questions, please let me know.
