Dog-friendly glamping in Shropshire

Shropshire is a hidden gem, ripe for exploration by you and your dog. Skirting along its border is the glorious Offa’s Dyke path, an epic hiking trail that links the Wye Valley, the Shropshire Hills and the Clwydian Range in Wales. After some memorable walks, there’s no need to say goodbye to the gorgeous views and head back to a bland hotel room. Instead, stay in one of our dog-friendly glamping places where the sights and sounds of the countryside pour in through every window, while outdoor decks invite feet and paws to linger as the sun sets.

As well as an abundance of scenic walks, there’s plenty of history to discover with your four-legged friend in Shropshire.

Or, if they’d rather zip through the countryside in style, the Severn Hill Railway welcomes pooches aboard for steam train rides.

We care about responsible travel

What do we do to promote responsible travel? Well, we’ve established a charitable trust that sees a percentage of our profits go to help combat climate change and we work with our owners to make their spaces as environmentally friendly as possible. We’re B-Corp certified and we’ve set ourselves some ambitious goals, including achieving Net Zero by 2030. Discover more in our impact report.
