Dog-friendly accommodation in the Waikato
Dogs welcome · self-contained · sleeps 4
Finding accommodation in the Waikato that actually welcomes dogs is harder than it should be. Most holiday homes say no, and the ones that don't are often booked out. Cosy Country Cottage is a genuine yes for small, house-trained dogs — it's a proper home rather than a farm setup, so not one for hunting or outdoor kennel dogs, but the whole family is otherwise welcome.
It's the whole cottage to yourselves at the foot of Mt Pirongia: two bedrooms, a full kitchen, your own deck, and native bush walks at the door. A proper dog-friendly base within easy reach of Hamilton, Raglan, Waitomo and Hobbiton.
What makes it a fit
A private section
Room for the dog to stretch out, away from roads and neighbours.
Walks at the door
Pirongia Forest Park rises straight up behind the cottage.
Dog-friendly days out
Raglan's beaches and the maunga trails are easy runs from here.
Just ask
Small, house-trained dogs only — tell us about your dog when you book and we'll make sure it's a good fit.
A rare genuine yes to the whole family: a private, self-contained Waikato cottage where the dog is welcome and there's room for everyone.
