The Suffolk Coast makes a wonderful holiday destination for you and your canine companion. This pet-friendly region offers an abundance of dog-friendly attractions – from coastal eateries to sandy beaches. Whether you’re seeking a cosy place to stay or simply want to explore the great outdoors, the Suffolk Coast has it all.
Read on to discover why the Suffolk Coast is the perfect autumn getaway for you and your beloved four-legged friend.
Wagging tails, happy trails
The Suffolk Coast offers an abundance of walking trails perfect for exploring with your four-legged friend. From Southwold, you can venture to Walberswick through the surrounding marshlands – an ideal open space for your dog to roam. Alternatively, you could embark on the circular Southwold Walk, which takes you around the town’s perimeter via Buss Creek and the marshes.
Dunwich offers a delightful getaway for you and your four-legged companion. Explore the picturesque shingle beach and glorious woodland, taking advantage of the free forestry car park. Along the way, stop at the many dog-friendly establishments, from the village pub to the beachside café and a tearoom for a refreshing drink.
Sandy paws
The Suffolk Coast offers an abundance of dog-friendly beaches, with many accessible even during the off-peak season. The Southwold Denes beach stands out, as it welcomes canine companions year-round. This beach features a small parking area off Ferry Road, making it convenient to access.
For a more adventurous outing, consider starting at the Denes beach and walking around Southwold’s picturesque harbour before crossing the Common and returning to the beach. Other top dog-friendly beaches in the area include Covehithe, Walberswick, Dunwich, and Sizewell.

No tricks, just treats
There’s plenty of choice when it comes to searching for a dog-friendly place to dine. From cosy pubs like The Fox Inn in Darsham to restaurants such as The Sail Loft in Southwold, you and your pup can enjoy a quick refuel before continuing your Suffolk adventure. Many dog-friendly eateries offer special menus and treats for your canine companion. Delight your dog with the doggy gelato, sausages, puppuccinos, and other treats available at places like Harris and James, Coasters, and many local cafes and eateries.
Home is where the dog is
Bringing your canine companion to the Suffolk Coast is a breeze, as over half of our holiday cottages welcome dogs. Whether you envision cosying up by a woodburning stove, relaxing at a beachside retreat, or unwinding in a hideaway with a spacious garden, be sure to explore our extensive collection of dog-friendly holiday cottages before making your holiday cottage choice. If you need any further information on our dog-friendly cottages on the Suffolk Coast, give our friendly team a call on 01502 723292.
