Why Woodfarm Barns is perfect for a Dog Friendly Weekend Break

More and more, dog owners are finding that there’s nothing quite like a dog friendly weekend break away somewhere exciting. Rather than leaving their best friend at home, owners are finding that there’s plenty to see and do with their pooch in tow. Since our very beginning, we have taken every measure to ensure that our Barns (and Barges) for rent in Suffolk are every bit as comfortable for guests with four legs as they are for those with only two.

To ensure that you’re every bit as convinced and excited about our Barns as we are, we’ve put together a short list of reasons why we’re confident that Woodfarm Barns serve as the best possible base for your dog friendly weekend breaks.

1: All of our Barns for rent are well-equipped for dog owners

Enclosed gardens to stretch four legs in? Check. Large living spaces that are comfortably furnished and feature luxurious hot tubs? Check. A secure two acre meadow only a short walk away to properly run about in? Check. Whilst the hot tubs, antique beds and walk-in showers are the preserve of human guests, the additions we’ve put in place for dogs make sure that they’re able to enjoy their time away just as much as their owners.
