Bringing your dog to Flag Cottage
Dog-friendly self-catering in Carsethorn — garden, kit we leave out, and walks from the door.
Flag Cottage is set up for dogs. Many guests choose us because the enclosed garden is safe after the drive, and Carsethorn Beach is a short walk away.
What we provide
We leave dog bed, bowls, and bags ready — see the full list on Services. There is a small dog fee per stay, shown when you pick dates on the Book page.
Inside the cottage
Dogs are welcome throughout the property. Please keep them off beds and furniture if you can, and wipe paws after muddy walks. The garden is ideal for a towel-down before you go inside.
Walks from the door
- Carsethorn Beach and merse — morning or evening is often quietest.
- Coastal paths toward Sandyhills or around Kippford and Rockcliffe for a longer day — see our coastal villages guide.
- Full walk ideas: dog walks from Carsethorn.
Before you travel
Pack familiar bedding if your dog prefers it, any medication, and a long line if you use one on the beach. If you need to ask about numbers of dogs or house rules, get in touch or read the FAQs.
