Park Holidays UK have a brilliant offer for animal lovers, who can take their pets free to selected accommodation in participating parks if they book within a limited time.
Park Holidays already welcome responsible pet owners. Pleasant pooches and cultured cats can be a part of your holiday in all bronze and selected silver and gold grade accommodation. It’s good value too, with pets coming along for £25-per-pet for short breaks and £40-a-week for longer stays.
But it’s free to book your pet on a break for a limited period. This has proved one of Park Holiday’s most popular offers in the past so snap up your place quickly.
There are some rules, of course, and it’s good to be prepared for a trip with your pet.
Never leave dogs unattended in your van or lodge. And keep them to the floor, there’s plenty of room for them to have fun without muddying up beds or seating.
Check out the local area before you visit. Most parks have loads of good spaces to exercise pets, but dog-friendly beaches and local walks will help keep Fido happy and well exercised and more likely to behave him or herself.
You’ll need a lead. But don’t forget fun, and bring plenty of treats and toys to keep your animals in good spirits.
A poop scoop and disposal bags will help keep you and pooch popular on the park.
Shopping in holiday parks and resorts is often more expensive, so bring a good supply of dog food.
Make sure your pet is fit enough to travel. Mums-to-be, new mums and young offspring shouldn’t travel. Check with your vet if your pet’s been ill or injured recently.
Be careful with animals in cars. Short journeys are fine, but for long journeys you’ll need water on hand.
A carry case or enclosure is the safest way to drive with an animal.
And if you do need to leave your animal in the car make sure it won’t overheat. Avoid direct sunlight and crack windows if you can.
