Spring is springing, and the call of adventure is echoing in your pup’s wagging tail! We all know that feeling – itchy feet and a longing to escape the winter blues. This year, why not ditch the kennels and whisk your furry friend away on a dog-friendly self-catering break?
Here at Squirrel Lettings, we have a wide selection of cosy cottages and pet-welcoming pads that are perfect for a springtime getaway with your canine companion. But why is Spring such a pawsome time for a self-catering dog holiday, you ask? Let’s sniff out the reasons!
Reasons To Book A Spring Break With Your Dog
Glorious weather, happy hounds
Spring sunshine is like magic for dogs. Gone are the soggy walks and shivering evenings. Warmer temperatures mean more outdoor playtime, longer walks in the fresh air, and the chance to explore new sniffscapes. Imagine lazy afternoons spent picnicking in the park with your pup by your side, or exhilarating hikes through meadows bursting with springtime blooms.
Stafford boasts a network of dog-friendly trails that are just begging to be explored. Let your pup sniff out the history along the scenic Isobel Trail, or chase squirrels (responsibly, of course!) in the sprawling greenery of Rowley Park. Feeling adventurous? Take a hike up the Shugborough Estate, with its stunning views and plenty of space for your dog to roam free.
Many pubs in Stafford welcome well-behaved canine companions, especially with the arrival of spring and their delightful outdoor seating areas. Imagine soaking up the sunshine on a pub patio with a refreshing drink while your pup snoozes contentedly at your feet. The Greyhound and The Bear And Pheasant are just a couple of Stafford pubs known for their dog-friendly atmosphere.
Home comforts, away from home

Pack their favourite toys, bowls, and a blanket that smells of home, and they’ll settle in no time. Plus, with a self-catering cottage, you can cook up their favourite meals, ensuring they stay happy and healthy throughout your trip.
