Our Dog-Friendly Insider Tips for Oxfordshire

If you are visiting Oxfordshire with the whole family, we recommend a visit to Cogges Historic Farm in the heart of Witney. There is a beautiful manor house (no dogs allowed unfortunately, so will need to take in turns!), walled garden, orchard, adventure play, and 17 acres of open space that your canine companion will love! Alternatively, we recommend Grey's Court - a beautiful Tudor Country House where dogs are warmly welcomed! Here, you will discover the 3km estate boundary walk through the farmland and beech woods.

A hidden gem - the dog-friendly Foxholes Nature Reserve - is also worth a visit during your dog-friendly holiday in Oxfordshire. Whilst here, you can enjoy a wonderful tranquil walk with your four-legged friend. We especially recommend this trip if you are visiting during Bluebell season - expect to be wow-ed!

Spend one of your morning's or afternoon's in Burford, one of the most picturesque towns in Oxfordshire. You will adore the honey-coloured cottages and medieval architecture that decorates this beautiful town. Once you have finished exploring the dog-friendly pubs, shops and cafes, head over to the three-arched bridge at the end of the high street and from there you can delight in a quiet stroll together along the River Windrush. While you are in Burford area, it's worth spending some time at Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens, set in 160 acres of landscaped parkland and gardens. There's so much to see and do here, such as watching rhinos, making friends with llamas, and even riding on a train!

With all the exploring, you'll want to return to the perfectly comfortable pet-friendly accommodation that suits your needs. Luckily, our dog-friendly holiday cottages and pet-friendly hotels in Oxfordshire provide the ulti-mutt comfort to both you and your four-legged friend.
