Brayton, in North Yorkshire, is a quiet parish town, with a history dating back to Saxon times. A farm shop sells traditional pies, perfect for a picnic with your pup. It also has a cosy village pub. With many nearby trails and paths to explore, the town is also close to the stunning Brayton Barff, an ancient woodland dense with wildlife and at 150 feet above sea level you're rewarded with incredible views of the surrounding area.
At Dog Friendly Cottages, we have an array of accommodation options. So whether you're looking for a spacious self-catering option for you and your family, or a cosy, traditional cottage with a private rose-filled garden to enjoy a well-earned drink after a day of walking with your dog, we have you covered.
Brayton is also the ideal base to explore the closeby Yorkshire Dales or North York Moors. These dramatic and varied landscapes have inspired many writers over the years. Many will be familiar with the windswept moors of Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, and the Gothic castles and abbeys of Whitby apparently inspired the setting in Dracula. Frances Hodgson Burnett's Secret Garden uses the Yorkshire countryside to literally create magic.
