Holidays are meant for everyone — and that includes our four-legged friends. At Manager’s Cottage in beautiful Loddon, Norfolk, we believe no getaway is truly complete unless your pet can join you. That’s why we proudly offer a pet-friendly stay, free of charge, where both you and your furry companions can relax, explore, and feel completely at home.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice that Manager’s Cottage has been designed with comfort and care in mind — for humans and pets alike. The enclosed back garden offers a safe space for your dog to roam freely, while you enjoy a peaceful morning coffee or evening barbecue. Inside, the cottage is spacious and thoughtfully furnished, with easy-clean flooring, cosy corners, and plenty of natural light, creating a homely atmosphere where tails will wag and people will smile.
Our friendly hosts ensure every detail is just right — from the welcome pack waiting on arrival to recommendations for nearby dog-friendly walks, pubs, and cafés. Because here, we treat your pets as part of the family.
Norfolk is one of the best places in the UK for pet-friendly holidays. With its open countryside, wide beaches, and scenic river paths, it’s a paradise for dogs who love to explore. Step outside the cottage and you’ll find walking trails along the River Chet, peaceful lanes through Loddon village, and plenty of green open spaces perfect for morning strolls or energetic runs.
For a change of scenery, take a short drive to Beccles or the Norfolk Broads, where you can enjoy riverside walks and even boat trips that welcome dogs aboard. If the seaside calls, the beaches of Great Yarmouth and Southwold are both within easy reach — ideal for long walks, splashing waves, and a well-earned rest in a seaside café afterwards.
After a day out adventuring, return to the comfort of your private retreat. The garden patio is perfect for unwinding as your pet rests at your feet, and the cottage’s spacious layout means there’s plenty of room for everyone to settle in comfortably.
You’ll find thoughtful touches throughout — from the washing machine for muddy clothes to the patio heater for cool evenings. Every element of the cottage has been considered to make your stay simple, relaxing, and stress-free.
Choosing a pet-friendly cottage means you can truly relax without worrying about kennels, pet sitters, or long separations. It turns an ordinary holiday into a shared experience — where you can make memories together, exploring new places and returning to a home that feels like your own.
At Manager’s Cottage, we know that pets bring joy, laughter, and companionship — and we’re proud to make them part of every guest’s experience.
So, if you’re dreaming of a countryside escape where everyone’s welcome, Manager’s Cottage is waiting for you. With private parking, Wi-Fi, a secure garden, and no pet fees, it’s the ideal base for exploring Norfolk at your own pace.
