South West - Gloucestershire

We have a lovely detached house by a mill pond in the charming village of Uley. The village has a post office, and a an arts centre with cafe (Prema) and a village pub (Old Crowne) that serves food.
We have one female spaded
labadoodle called Blue, who is 7 years old.
Blue has a very sweet nature but has never properly mastered the art of coming back when called. She can be stubborn but is fine on a lead and doesn't have an aggressive bone in her body.
Blue requires two walks a day. Normally she gets half an hour in the mornngs and about 1 hour in the late afternoon. We are on the edge of the Cotswold escarpment and have loads of beautiful walks around us. There are over 23 miles of footpaths in Uley alone.
You will have a large en suite guest room and the house has high speed wifi and the smart TV in the lounge and dining room has Netflix, Amazon, Prime, Now etc etc. and a woodburner , and underfloor heating. The games room has a full sized snooker table and a running machine and some weights.

We thoroughly enjoyed sitting for Sue and Bill. They leave good detailed instructions and tips and communication is excellent. They have a beautiful home in an idyllic location. It's surrounded by fabulous countryside with many interesting places to visit within easy driving distance. Their dog, Blue, is a delight to look after. She's so intelligent and took us on some lovely walks. It's impossible to get lost around there as Blue knows every path and there are 27 miles of paths around the ... MORE

This was our ideal sit. Sue and Bill have a lovely home, with a beautiful garden, in a quiet and peaceful neighbourhood and we felt so relaxed being there that we often felt there was no need to be going anywhere else. There are miles of wonderful walks all around the village of Uley. Blue is a lovely gentle dog and we always enjoyed our walks with her. She surprised us a couple of times by taking us on a different walk to the ones we'd already done. Mona the cat took a few days to get used ... MORE

Great house with a lovely dog called Blue and cat called Mona, Bill and Susan were great with instructions and were always on call when I needed them. The town itself is quaint and there's some lovely villages surrounding.
