Dog Rules
Visit our dog friendly shepherds huts in Hampshire because when dogs relax, their humans relax too. Dogs staying at Wallops Wood are unquestionably VIPS (Very Important Pups). Therefore, they get their own welcome basket including new toy and treats!
We love dogs here at Wallops Wood but not everyone feels the same way, especially young children. Read and follow the Dog House Rules for guests, and if you have any questions, please call or email us.
We welcome canine companions to our Shepherd’s Huts/Cosy Glamping Houses because we appreciate that pets are family. Please adhere to the Dog House Rules for guests bringing dogs to Glamping at Wallops Wood.
These Dog Rules are incorporated in the Terms and Conditions:
- To clarify, you are responsible as a dog owner, for the behaviour of your dog during your stay at Wallops Wood.
- Ensure your dog’s worm and flea treatments are up to date and that your dog is microchipped and registered.
- You agree to accept full responsibility for any and all damages and/or soiling caused by your dog(s). We reserve the right to pursue the cost for any repair or additional cleaning requirements.
- Your dog(s) must not enter any Glamping Shepherd’s Hut/Cosy Glamping House other than the one the dog(s) are staying in, even if you are part of a group booking. Otherwise we will levy an additional dog fee for the extra cleaning costs.
- We know it’s difficult to stop dog(s) from jumping on the furniture so we provide a blanket in the doggy hamper. For this reason, please don’t let your dog(s) on the beds and furniture without a blanket in place.
