From Julie, Robin & Millie (German Shepherd)
We’ve just come back from a long weekend in Cornwall. I took your guides and other Pet friendly guides. We stayed at www.campingcaradon.co.uk at Trelawne, Near Looe - PL13 2NA, its very close to Tallan Bay. Found them in Pet Friendly places to stay 2009, couldn’t find them in your guide, may be worth a look. Dogs should be on leads… They were very accomodating…
In Looe itself, dogs were not allowed on the main beach at any time… although there was a bay next door where dogs were allowed (we couldn’t use it because the tide was in!). We also visited a VERY friendly cafe called Daisy’s in Castle Street, Looe where ‘dogs, kids and muddy boots’ were welcome. We’d recomend them to all dog owners.
Visited Readymoney Beach at Fowey. No dogs on the beach between Easter and 1st Oct. It was a fairly small beach and the coastal walks which were just behind the beach, were full of people with their dogs. The walks were fairly steep and not suitable for people or dogs who are not physically able.
We also visited Polperro where we climbed the path to the rocks at the end of the bay to watch the stormy seas. On the way back I saw a Doggie Vend (see attached photo)!
On the way back we visited Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve, Southern Bodmin Moor. Lots of people with their dogs. Rivers were a mixture of strong currents as well as slow streams and still eddies. Fantastic scenery!

I had a great Christmas break in Cornwall too, with my Cockapoo, Poppy.
I write a regular (ish) column for CD-Traveller “One Woman and her Dog”
The cornwall tips for doggy travel and accommodation (also linking to this site) are all on the article, which can be found
Enjoy!
