Dog-friendly cottages in Northumberland
Epic beaches, rolling hills and wagging tails galore
This wild and wonderful county is one of the most dog-friendly spots in the UK. With miles of sandy coastline, vast countryside and more castles than anywhere else in England, there’s plenty for you and your four-legged friend to explore in Northumberland.
From seafront cottages in Seahouses to cosy hideaways in the Cheviot Hills, our dog-friendly holiday homes in Northumberland make it easy to enjoy a relaxing and adventure-filled escape together. Many have enclosed gardens, log burners and even doggy welcome packs, so everyone’s tail stays wagging.
Why choose a dog-friendly holiday in Northumberland?
Northumberland offers big skies, wide open spaces and next to no crowds, which makes it heaven for dogs and their humans. You can roam the beaches off-lead, hike through ancient woodland, or wander around historic villages and ruins.
Dogs are welcome at loads of local pubs, tearooms and attractions – and the slow pace of life means there’s time for proper exploring (and plenty of sniffing). Whether you're heading to the coast, countryside or national park, this is a place where dogs are part of the adventure.
Best dog-friendly walks in Northumberland
This is proper walking country. Here are some favourite routes for wag-worthy wanderings:
- Hadrian’s Wall Path – follow in Roman footsteps on this iconic trail. Pick a scenic stretch that suits your pace and enjoy views, wildlife and wide-open landscapes.
- Cragside Estate – explore miles of trails through gardens, woodland and lakes. Dogs are welcome on-lead across the grounds.
- Simonside Hills – these pine-fringed hills above Rothbury offer breathtaking views and peaceful trails for off-lead exploring.
- Kielder Forest and Water – one of the most remote spots in England, this huge forest park is packed with dog-friendly trails and picnic spots.
- The Cheviot Hills – perfect for longer hikes and proper leg-stretchers. Keep dogs on a lead near livestock, but there’s plenty of freedom too.
Best dog-friendly beaches in Northumberland
If your pup loves a sandy dash or paddle, these beaches are absolute standouts:
- Bamburgh Beach – vast, clean and dog-friendly all year round. Plus, Bamburgh Castle makes the perfect backdrop for your walk.

- What are the best dog friendly cottages in Northumberland?
We love this stunning bungalow in Morpeth, a two bedroom cottage located near Northumberland National Park with modern but cosy furnishings. But to be honest, you can't go wrong with any of our Northumberland dog friendly cottages!
- How do I pick dog friendly accommodation?
When choosing dog friendly cottages in Northumberland, consider factors such as pet policies, available amenities for pets, proximity to dog-friendly beaches and attractions, countryside walks and parks, and reviews from previous guests with pets. Always communicate with the accommodation provider beforehand to ensure they meet your pet's needs and adhere to any specific requirements or restrictions. For example, if you need a spacious cottage with room for your four legged friend to make lots of noise, choose a detached holiday cottage with an enclosed garden and a pet friendly washing machine for all those muddy paw prints on towels and dog hair on blankets.
- Where are the best places to stay in Northumberland National Park?
The best places to stay in Northumberland National Park often include charming villages such as Rothbury, Bellingham, and Wooler, which offer a range of accommodation options and easy access to the park's stunning landscapes.

We've got dog friendly cottages in Northumberland all over the county, so you won't have to look far to find one you want!
- What facilities should I look for when choosing dog friendly cottages in Northumberland?
When selecting dog friendly cottages in Northumberland, look for facilities such as secure and enclosed gardens for your pet to play safely, nearby access to dog-friendly walking trails and parks, pet-friendly amenities, and any specific rules or policies regarding pets. Additionally, consider accommodations with easy-to-clean flooring and provisions for dogs' comfort, such as dog beds or bowls. If you're lucky enough to find somewhere with a pet friendly washing machine, it'll make clearing your clothes of pet hair a breeze!
