My sister and I have just had a few days away together with Molly and my sister's Lab, Katie. We rented a house at Milford on Sea, which is on the south coast of England, on the edge of the New Forest, a convenient spot as it's about halfway between our two homes. The dogs hadn't met each other before - my sister got Katie as a rescue back in Feb when she was 6 months old. Thankfully they got along very well together and we had a great time, despite either rain or drizzle most of the time. I can thoroughly recommend the area for a dog walking holiday. Dogs are allowed off-lead on the shingle beach all year and there is also a lovely wooded area for walks with a stream running through it. The local pub, The Smuggler's Arms, allows dogs inside and we had a good meal there.
Looks amazing! Do you have a link to the cottage you stayed in? Always on the hunt for nice dog friendly cottages

The back garden is completely enclosed but very small. However, as I've said, lots of good dog walking places.
