Our spacious dog pens feature cosy sleeping areas, open but sheltered outdoor spaces, and comfy trampoline beds. In winter, in-floor heating is available on request, and in summer, the pens are shaded.
We also offer extra-large rooms for family groups, large breeds, or dogs needing extra space. Dogs are fed twice a day with a high-protein diet, but if your dog has specific dietary needs, you’re welcome to provide their own food, pre-packaged and labelled (a small fee applies).
After breakfast and a health check, dogs enjoy 1-3 hours of group play. Please note, we generally do not accept personal belongings unless needed for medical or anxiety reasons, and we cannot guarantee their return in the same condition.
