Welcoming Your Furry Friends: Comfort and Adventure Await
Pets Welcome

Being dog owners ourselves we understand just how important a part of the family your four-legged friends are! At West Acre we roll out the carpet for our four-legged friends and welcome up to four well behaved dogs. More dogs can sometimes be accepted with prior agreement. We charge £20 per stay per dog to contribute towards the additional cleaning costs.

Assistance dogs are always welcome, and we do not charge a fee for assistance or guide dogs.

One thing we always warn all our guests of, is that whilst the garden at West Acre is large, enclosed and is great for dogs, it is NOT fully dog proof so an intrepid explorer can find escape routes. Whilst there is a gate that can be closed at the top of the drive, we advise that dogs outside are always watched. There are plenty of local walks and we provide maps and instructions for a number of nearby walks that we recommend.

Our Dog Rules at West Acre

  • All dogs must be booked by prior agreement and recorded on the booking details.
  • All dogs staying at West Acre must be fully house trained.
  • Dogs are not allowed upstairs or on any of the beds. (We can put up a stairgate at the bottom of the stairs if requested).
  • We prefer dogs not to go on the furniture, but we know if they do at home it’s difficult to stop them when they are away, if your dogs do go on the furniture please use the dog throws provided
  • We request that any waste deposited in the garden is picked up and tied in a poo bag, please put all poo bags in the special dog poo bin provided. (This is by the other bins, it is labelled and will have a bin liner in it).
  • If you bring a muddy dog back to West Acre after a walk, please clean them off using the outside “dog wash” (By the back door, a short hose with spray tool attached with hot and cold mixer tap). Please only use the towels provided with the dog basket for drying your dogs.
  • Please never use any of the white or grey towels provided for human use for drying dogs.
  • We are in a rural environment and respectfully ask that you please follow the countryside code and keep dogs under control and on a lead when walking in the local countryside.
Unfortunately, if there is any damage caused by dogs or any additional cleaning required (especially in the dog free areas) we reserve the right to potentially impose a fee to cover this cost.

SAY ABOUT US
My family and I used West Acre for a 30th birthday celebration weekend, which turned into an engagement celebration! The house was perfect for what we needed – everything was taken into account and the thoughtful details like a doggy welcome basket and baby/toddler changing station were so thoughtful. All members of the party commented on how clean, well thought out and beautiful it was.

This was our third stay here at West Acre and won’t be our last. The house is great, Vicki, Jeff and Nathan have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable, even including dog beds and bowls for your pooch! Really well equipped and the perfect place for a special multi-generational family celebration. They let you take your pampered pooches with you too! We wouldn’t hesitate to book west acre again and can’t recommend it highly enough.

Staying at West Acre was an absolute delight! From the moment we checked in, we were greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The thoughtful gesture of the cake and ‘Happy Birthday’ sign for my dad made our celebration even more special. We also appreciated the beautiful garden, which not only provided a serene setting but also delighted our dog with its space and various fruit offerings.

Best weekend away!

Wow! What a fabulous house and superb hosts – we couldn’t have asked for anything more! From the offset Jeff and Vicki were helpful, engaging and really friendly. The house had literally everything – baby change (inc products), toys, high chairs etc. Even the doggies had a treat box! All of my friends were blown away by how convenient they had made the house.

Simply fabulous! 12 of us, plus two German Shepherds, have just enjoyed an amazing weekend here to celebrate our Dad’s 80th birthday! Jeff, Vicki and Nathan could not do enough for us, both before and during our stay, and even afterwards as well! West Acre is a wonderful, beautifully presented property, with plenty of space both indoors and outdoors for group gatherings.
