Dog Friendly Holiday Cottages with Hot Tubs
Some of Our Favourite Dog Friendly Holiday Cottages with Hot Tubs
Holiday cottages with hot tubs are a favourite amongst our guests, and we can understand why. Hot tub cottages allow you to go exploring our stunning coastline by day, all the while knowing you can spend your evening relaxing those sore muscles away.
Perhaps you have a hectic day-to-day life or a particularly stressful job. A long soak in the warm bubbling water of a hot tub is the perfect remedy to help ease those tensions away.
“But”, we hear you say, “we need somewhere suitable for the whole family – and that includes our dog”.
We’re a company of dog lovers ourselves, so we understand when your pet pooch simply can’t be left behind. But that doesn't mean you need to compromise on your accommodation. Here at Coastal Cottages, we have a number of dog-friendly holiday cottages with hot tubs so you really can have it all!

Bangeston Farmhouse, Angle
Quite unlike any of the other hot tub holiday cottages we let, Bangeston Farmhouse has been designed with sustainability in mind. Not only is the hot tub here a wood-burning hot tub, but the cottage itself is also home to a number of more eco-friendly designs than you might see in other properties.
Being a wood-burning hot tub, this simply means that the heated water within is powered by a log burner and therefore, there are no jet functions. You will have to set up the log burner some 3 to 4 hours before you wish to step in to give the hot tub enough time to get up to temperature, and then you will have to keep an eye on when you need to refuel. That being said, don’t be lulled into thinking that this type of hot tub is any less relaxing than your standard hot tub – in fact, you might even think it’s more so! Instead of sitting back into jet streams, focus on that soothing sound of the wood crackling as it burns whilst taking in the view of the beautiful wildflower roof and you’ll soon be eased into a state of relaxation.
As for the farmhouse, the boiler is fuelled by wood pellets and the water is heated by solar panels. The rainwater is gathered and harvested for the toilet and washing machine, whilst a heat exchanger circulates warm air throughout.
The eco-friendly aspect of this holiday cottage is just the beginning of how wonderful this property though. Bangeston Farmhouse is stylishly furnished with contemporary quality retaining original A-frame beams and slate floors. Take advantage of the WiFi, garden furniture and BBQ for an all-around fantastic stay. It is located just a short drive from the rural village of Angle where you will find beaches, places to eat and a village shop.
