Places to Visit from Dog-Friendly Cottages on the Isle of Wight
When staying in one of these pet-friendly cottages on the Isle of Wight, there’s no shortage of dog-friendly places to visit and explore.
For a traditional beach day, take a drive to Sandown on the island’s east coast. It’s home to a long sandy beach where dogs are welcome in specific areas all year round. While here, we’d recommend walking along the Esplanade and stopping off at a local café or fish and chip shop before taking the cliff-top walk up to Yaverland, which offers stunning sea views.
Alternatively, the popular town of Ryde is only a 16-minute drive away from Sandown and boasts a wealth of great ways to spend the day. Known as the “Gateway to the Island”, it’s packed with independent shops, a quaint pier, and plenty of dog-friendly places to grab a bite to eat. While here, make sure to check out Ryde Beach and Appley Beach, both being great spots for stretching your legs and take your pooch for a runaround!
For those with children, head to Puckpool Park, so the kids can play and the dog can enjoy some fresh air too.
