How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 16 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 9.3/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: July 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet-friendly summary
Few places put their intentions in the name quite like this one: Logs & Dogs is a woodland cabin on Crippetts Lane, tucked into the escarpment above Cheltenham with the Cotswold Way running close by, and it is pitched squarely at people who holiday with their dog. It carries a 4.2 paw rating from guest feedback so far, based on a single stay, so read it as an encouraging early signal.
The setting is the star turn for dog owners. Guests describe the surrounding grounds as stunning and ideal for dog walks, with the sort of wildlife-rich woodland where you will spot foxes and pheasants, which also means a lead and decent recall are wise companions. With the Cotswold Way close at hand, you can walk onto Leckhampton Hill and the escarpment straight from the area rather than driving to a trailhead.
The cabin itself is small and beautifully finished, with a kitchen and bathroom that draw particular praise and hosts who go out of their way, warming the place up before arrivals. It is honest to call it cosy: the double bed and sofa bed suit a couple best, and some guests found nights a little cool without direct control of the heating, worth knowing in winter when the dog claims the warmest spot first.
Practically, you are ten minutes' drive from Cheltenham for restaurants and supplies, with plenty of parking at the cabin and a genuinely quiet location at night.
No formal pet policy is published, so confirm any fee and how many dogs are welcome before booking. Best suited to a couple with an outdoorsy dog who want woodland walks from the door and a town within easy reach.
