Luxury five-star resort Lough Erne, County Fermanagh, has announced that it is opening the doors of two of its luxury self-catering lodges to guests with pup friends.
Do you always feel guilty when you have to leave your pooch behind when going on holiday? Be guilty no more as Lough Erne Resort announces doggy-friendly short breaks.
Two luxury self-catering lodges at the resort are now open to dog-friendly short breaks. This move comes in the wake of strong market demand. With summer places limited, dog owners have been urged to book early or face disappointment.
Lough Erne Resort announces doggy-friendly short breaks – five-star stay for your pup
The General Manager of Lough Erne Resort, herself a keen dog lover, explains, “Our US-based management company, TRU Hotels and Resorts has reported an increasing international trend towards doggy-friendly short breaks over the years.
“However, it has only been more recently, within Lough Erne Resort, that we have been approached by regular guests who wanted to enjoy the beauty of the Fermanagh Lakelands but didn’t want to leave their four-legged friends at home.
“We all know they are our best friends, but it’s clear our doggies have become an even greater element within our extended families since the pandemic.
“So, after careful consideration, we have decided to make two of our luxury self-catering lodges available for canine check-ins on a trial basis, meaning our guests can pamper themselves and their pooches in the tranquil countryside of Fermanagh.”
Dogs and the resort – the ins and outs
The luxury resort’s doggy guests won’t be permitted inside the hotel, inside buildings, or on the golf courses.
However, pups that are well behaved and, on a lead, will be permitted on the Collop Walk. This is a beautiful route that envelopes the resort’s accommodation.
With the resort providing a welcome bone and toy, owners will be responsible for bringing their own provisions.
Each group can bring along two doggy guests. There will be a supplement of £50 per dog to stay at the resort. This is regardless of the length of stay, plus a refundable policy deposit.
