Pet-friendly summary
Seagrass is a large self-catering house in Crantock, a village a few miles from Newquay on the north Cornwall coast. It is a well-set-up base for a dog-friendly beach holiday, and dogs feature happily in a lot of the guest feedback.
The property's booking listing allows up to two pets, and several groups have stayed with a pair of dogs. The feature dog owners mention most is the outside hot-water shower, which is genuinely useful for rinsing a sandy, salty dog after a beach walk before it comes back indoors. The utility room adds somewhere to stash wet gear and dog towels.
The other big plus is the fully enclosed garden, described repeatedly as large and safe, with space for dogs to be out off-lead while the family relaxes. The house itself is roomy and well equipped, and the upstairs living area with its coastal views is a favourite spot.
For walks, Crantock works well. The village, its two pubs and the shop are an easy stroll, and Crantock Beach is a walk or short drive downhill. The sand dunes behind the beach and the wider north-coast beaches give plenty of options, and there are dog-friendly places to eat nearby.
A few guests have flagged the odd maintenance niggle, such as a musty bedroom or a tired mattress, none of them pet-related and none enough to spoil a stay. For a dog owner who wants a spacious Crantock house with a secure garden and a proper dog-wash shower a short walk from the beach, Seagrass is a strong, practical choice.
