At Gask House Holidays, we believe that no holiday is complete without your four-legged companions. That’s why we love to welcome well-behaved dogs, and do our utmost to ensue that they have just as wonderful a stay as you do.

We can accept a maximum of 2 dogs in each of Clava and Corrimony Cottages.
Just click the "Add Pet" option when you book and for a small fee your pet can enjoy your holiday with you.

Our dedicated dog-friendly spaces are designed with your pets in mind, offering them the comfort and amenities they deserve.

Take advantage of our spacious doggy exercise paddock, where your furry friends can run freely, romp around, and enjoy the fresh country air. Take a brisk morning walk on one of the many dog-friendly local walks, our facilities make it easy to keep your pet happy and comfortable throughout your stay.

We aim to provide all the small basics to help you manage your dogs during their stay. This includes an outside hose, plenty of dog towels and throws for the sofa. We can also provide a dog crate, upon request.

Join us at Gask House Holidays, where every member of the family, including your beloved dogs, is guaranteed a memorable getaway!

House rules

We have some sensible (we hope) rules to ensure the safety of your own dog, the safety and enjoyment of others on-site, and to respect the property, grounds and other animals.

Dogs must be kept under control at all times and on a lead in the common areas around the Cottages.
Please be considerate of other guests, who may have a more sensitive dog, or who may not be that keen on dogs.
Please be aware this is a working farm and there may be sheep, hens, cats and other animals on-site or in adjacent fields.
Please clean up after your dog and use the dog waste bin provided – It is very important that you please pick up after your dog, as we often have small children on site.
Please ensure that dogs are not allowed in the bedrooms. We try to keep them as allergy free as possible for all our guests.
Please use the throws provided for the sofas, to keep the amount of dog hair and dander to a minimum. Some of our future guests may be allergic, and this helps with keeping on top of the cleaning.

Please do not leave your dog unaccompanied in the cottage, unless crated. We can provide you a crate for the purpose, but in a strange place, dogs can get more anxious than when at home, which can lead to destructive behaviour.
We want your dogs to have a great holiday, and we understand that great holidays for dogs can include getting wet, muddy and sandy! Please help us keep our cottages beautiful by ensuring that you use the dog washing facilities and towels before allowing your dog back into the cottage.
We only accept dog over 9 months old. If you have a puppy or young, immature dog prone to chewing the furniture, please check with us first.
Any damages or soiling caused by your dog during your stay will be your responsibility, and you accept to cover the cost of any repairs or excess cleaning.
