Top Dog Friendly Lovat Parks for Lodge Ownership

For many of us, a family holiday isn’t complete without the whole family — and that includes our four-legged friends. In fact, dog-friendly facilities were the top priority for 56% of owners, highlighting just how important it is to bring our pets along on our adventures. After years of welcoming guests, one thing is clear: holidays are for hounds as well as humans. This post explores which of our dog-welcoming parks offer the best lodge ownership opportunities for you and your furry companion in 2025.

Why Choose a Lovat Park for You and Your Dog?

Our commitment to being genuinely pet-friendly is a core part of the Lovat Parks experience. We don’t just tolerate dogs; our goal is to create a true haven for hounds, welcoming up to two well-behaved dogs per booking. And when it comes to holiday home ownership, we ensure that our parks are just as welcoming for your pets as they are for you, with thoughtful touches such as dedicated dog-walking areas, nearby trails, and dog-friendly facilities designed to make every stay and every day feel like a holiday for all members of the family.

Our dog-friendly amenities often include:

  • Canine camper treat bars for a well-earned, post-walk snack.
  • Doggy ice creams for a refreshing treat on a warm day.
  • Dedicated dog washing stations and showers for cleaning up after sandy paws and muddy walks.
  • Agility courses and exercise areas for off-lead fun and data gathering on your dog’s athletic prowess.
  • Dog walking areas

All these amenities ensure that every visit to your lodge is a proper adventure for your pet. As the UK’s first B Corp certified holiday park group, we are held to high, verifiable social and environmental standards, which includes protecting the local habitats where our families and their dogs love to roam. You can examine our luxury pet-friendly holidays to see just how much we love having dogs stay with us.

The New Forest: Woodland Walks and Wagging Tails

For those who prefer ancient woodlands over windswept coasts, Green Hill Farm Holiday Village sits right in the heart of the New Forest. The appeal for dog owners here is immense: direct access to endless woodland trails, vast heathland panoramas, and the famous native ponies as your neighbours. We’re huge fans of the Lyndhurst Heath circular walk, which can be followed by a well-deserved pint at a traditional pub like the nearby Rockingham Arms. It’s an idyllic variable for woodland adventurers. Look for a dog friendly holiday home for sale in our favourite corner of the woods.

The Lifestyle and Benefits of Lodge Ownership

Becoming a lodge owner is more than a holiday; it’s a lifestyle investment. It brings the freedom of having a “home from home” for spontaneous getaways, without the hassle of researching and booking. Our owners often share qualitative data on how much they value this flexibility and the wonderful sense of community at our parks.

Our lodges feature high-quality finishes, with open-plan layouts, fully-fitted kitchens, and superfast Wi-Fi. You can choose from new or pre-loved models to suit your budget. Of course, ownership is a significant decision. It’s important to weigh the practical variables, such as annual site fees and utilities, against the immense lifestyle benefits. For those interested, our ‘Love to Let‘ scheme provides a fully managed service to help you let out your lodge to fellow dog owners.
