The Quantock Hide
A Romantic Dog Friendly Cottage
In Somerset
A Secluded Luxury Retreat
Tucked away on the Quantock Hills, The Quantock Hide is a luxury dog friendly retreat created for couples and those who want to escape the everyday.
It's private, peaceful and wonderfully romantic.
Think slow mornings, countryside walks, evenings in your private hot tub and the sort of uninterrupted time together that is increasingly hard to find.
And, importantly, your dogs don't have to miss out.

A Private Hot Tub Beneath The Stars
Some evenings are made for going out.
Others are made for getting into the hot tub, pouring something delicious to drink and watching the sky change above you.
Your private covered hot tub means you can enjoy that little luxury whatever the weather
Add a fire, your favourite people and your dog curled up nearby and you've got a pretty good evening
Dog Friendly Without Compromising On Romance
A Completely Enclosed Garden
For Your Dogs
The Quantock Hide isn't a romantic cottage where dogs are merely tolerated - we adore all dogs
The Quantock Hide is very popular with those who have very reactive dogs, as it is set away from our other cottages and it has a large enclosed garden for your dogs to enjoy in safety
When your dogs need a proper run, our private secure dog exercise fields are available for your exclusive use. So you can have your romantic escape without leaving your doggos behind and they get to enjoy your break too
Your garden is fenced to a minimum of 6ft and, to the best of our knowledge, is dog-secure
We tested it with our two reactive escape-artist dogs, and they couldn’t get out! Since then, 300+ visiting dogs have also failed to escape!

Why leave your dogs behind for the first chapter of your married life?
The Quantock Hide is a beautiful choice for a dog friendly honeymoon or mini-moon in Somerset.
Spend your days exploring the Quantock Hills and coast, then retreat to your own private hideaway in the evening.
No airport queues
No packing stress
Just the two of you, your dogs and a little luxury!
Simon and I love spoiling our honeymoon couples and their dogs - here both 2 and 4 leggers can rest, recharge and add precious memories to the wedding experience.
The Quantock Hide is also perfect for celebrating:
Anniversaries
Birthdays
Proposals
Mini-moons
Romantic weekends
"Just because" escapes
Holidays with friends and family
Simon and my speciality is spoiling our guests and their dogs and don't ask why as we don't want to ruin the surprise but when you book put on the form as much info as you can as to what you are celebrating - you will like the surprise and you have to trust us on that one!
You might think that you are booking a romantic or celebration break with friends and family, but as we all know, it's not really your holiday - it's theirs, the dogs.
Why is it the dogs' break?
Well, if they are happy and settled, then you too can properly relax.
Afterall us mere humans are just the chauffeurs and the concierge service
Oh and the bank of Mum and Dad Dog parents as it is us who gets to pay for lovely luxury dog friendly breaks like this!
Simon and I want you to feel as though you are coming to stay with us, not a soulless holiday cottage.
At every turn, you will find pictures and little stories of our history and our love for each other (it is, after all, a truly romantic cottage!) and our dogs and horses.
You will also find:
Bespoke handmade soft furnishings
Beautiful embroidered bed linens
Fluffy bathrobes and towels
Well a luxury romantic dog friendly cottage would not be any of these unless it had its very own private outside bar.
"Rascals" Bar (which was so named after our beautiful Germand Shepherd called Star who recently gone to doggie heaven and we are still broken from her loss) But she was a delightful "Rascal" so it was only appropriate that she had a bar named after her....
From Rascals you have epic country and coastal views.
Quite literally at the end of your 6ft fenced enclosed garden lies 9,000 acres of stunning AONB Quantock Hills heathland.
The hills are made up of a mosaic of sprawling heath and deep wooded valleys with cooling rivers running through the bottoms.
The hills are so quiet that if you see anyone else, you will be most surprised and will be asking yourself "what are they doing on "our" hill!
Your Romantic Somerset Escape
The Quantock Hide is for those who want something more personal than a hotel and more luxurious than a traditional cottage.
A place to slow down
A place to reconnect
A place where your dogs are as welcome as you
No having to change for dinner
No having to avoid other people with dogs in narrow hotel corridors
No shared gardens
No having to get dressed to let the dogs out for late night or early mornings; simply open your cottage door and go back to bed whilst they can enjoy their 6ft fenced enclosed garden
Inside the cottage you’ll have:
-
Superfast Wi-Fi so you can stay connected
-
Good mobile coverage across most networks
-
Supermarket deliveries brought right to your door
-
American-style fridge freezer with plenty of space
-
Washing machine and dryer
-
Fully kitted-out kitchen with everything you need for cooking up a feast
-
Lovely log burner for cosy evenings after a day out exploring
Once you have entered the Beech Hanger country estate, you will follow the signs to your private and exclusive drive. It is easily navigable, but it is steep
Both bedrooms are under the eaves, so there’s a little ducking required, but plenty of headroom once inside.
The master has a roll-top bath for two and a WC
Bedroom 2 has an adjacent shower room and a WC
The property is attached to the east end of our private stable yard. The Quantock Hide is very secluded and private but from your bedroom windows (which are on the 1st floor) you may see our elderly 2 horses below taking themselves off down the track to their fields
Parking is off-road and private, and there is room to park multiple cars
