Full Property Description:
A truly dog friendly holiday home for you and your dogs, where you can fully relax with no worries about whether your dog is welcome or safe.
Dogs are welcome to roam anywhere in the cottage, including the sofa and bed.

We love dogs and welcome them, not just tolerate them.

Local Area Guide:
Copse on the Broads is perfectly positioned for guests wanting both relaxation and adventure.
Located beside miles of open marshland, you'll have peaceful walks almost straight from the front door, with Oulton Marshes, the Broads National Park and the Angles Way all within a few minutes' walk.
Oulton Broad is within easy walking distance for waterside pubs, restaurants and boat trips, while several year-round dog-friendly beaches are only around 10 minutes away by car.
If you'd like to explore further afield, Norwich and Framlingham Castle are both within driving distance, while paddleboarding, canoeing, sailing, birdwatching and river cruises can all be enjoyed nearby.
Meet The Owners
Opening a holiday let has been a lifelong dream for Charlotte.
After years working in the corporate world—Phil in IT and Charlotte in recruitment—they understand just how important it is to take a proper break.
Finding accommodation that genuinely welcomed their own larger dogs proved surprisingly difficult, so they decided to create the kind of place they had always wanted to stay themselves.
Bella and Peggy, their much-loved dogs, are very much part of the family and inspired Copse on the Broads to become somewhere that dogs are genuinely welcomed, not simply tolerated.

XL Escapes Peace Of Mind Promise
Every business you see on XL Escapes has confirmed to us that they welcome XL Bullies.
Before being listed, we ask the questions we'd want answered ourselves — from real experience living and travelling with XL and reactive dogs.
That includes confirming they are happy to host XL Bullies, that their listing details are accurate, and that they've considered their own legal and insurance responsibilities.
We don't assume.
We don't guess.
We ask — and they confirm.
If anything changes or a business doesn't stand by what they've told us, we take it seriously.
If a business listed on XL Escapes turns you away because of your dog's breed, contact us.
We will review it, remove them if necessary, and refund your membership.
