A holiday with your pet

Holidays with dogs are very fun, but they can also bring some challenges. Think about some practical matters, before renting a dog lodge. If you are travelling to a foreign country, you should always check the requirements of the specific country for bringing your pet with you. And be prepared with a passport for her/him! Also, how are you getting to the place? A car journey is something most dogs love, but if your dog doesn’t appreciate having limited space to play around, then you can practice before the vacation. Take your pet in your car for a short distance journey so that she or he and get used to the feeling. Another idea is to bring his favourite toy so that it helps her/him relax during the trip.

Flora

If you decide to book a hut in the woods, then be ready to surround yourself with beautiful plants and various species of trees. Whether it be France, The Netherlands, Belgium, or Sweden, we’ve got you covered! If you decide to book a hut in Belgium or The Netherlands then you will be able to see oak, elm, pine, and linden, a few of the most common tree species here. Waking up to the beautiful and calming trees will make your day even more productive but relaxing at the same time! Imagine trees growing through terraces and roofs of your hut! If you decide to stay in France, then you will be amazed by the greenery that this country has to offer. You may think of Eiffel Tower, Champs-Élysées, or Arc de Triomphe every time you think of France, but have you heard of Portes en Valdaine in Rhône-Alpes? Here, you will discover oak, beech, pine, birch, poplar, and willow. Feel like visiting the woods in Sweden? Go hiking or biking through the endless forests that are nowhere the same and explore various species of flowers in this country. Visby, a sunny island in Sweden has roses blooming until winter creating a picturesque view for you to enjoy! These are the few countries that offer so much vegetation but there are more options available for you where you could book a hut in the woods and enjoy the unique floras of those places.

Fauna

From wild boars to deers and foxes, if you stay in the woods, you might spot them right outside your hut! Europe is a continent with unique animal life and marine life. Most of the countries that are near the Mediterranean region, offer wildlife that not everyone has seen. For instance, in Germany, you may spot a cute little European pine marten or European badger. You may even find a pool frog jumping around the lakes in the woods! The forests in France are home to polecats, martens, and deers. As you take a hike in the woods, you can say hi to some hedgehogs, shrews, foxes, or even squirrels, rabbits, otters, and beavers. Migratory birds like terms, buntings, and egrets can also be spotted in France. Some of the countries in Europe have witnessed a decline in wildlife over the past five decades however, some are still well preserved and in advantage. Here there’s a less human activity and plenty of space for you to explore the wilderness and book a hut within the area. Connect with nature to see some of the unique creatures that still exist in these regions.

Dog accommodation

Before booking a lodge for you and your dog, think about the natural surroundings that you’d love to be surrounded with. Mountains and forests, accommodation by the water or near the sea, house surrounded by fields and verdant meadows, or a completely secluded location in the middle of nowhere. What activities do you most enjoy doing with your dog? Running, hiking, swimming, it’s all possible! You can choose the natural theme from the boxes on the left side of the page, and then pick a home that you like.
