Rushland, Ludchurch

Deserving of some attention this September is this dog friendly bungalow in Ludchurch, just a short drive from both the beaches at Wiseman's Bridge and Amroth.


Rushland is a beautifully furnished and well decorated property which is obvious to the human eye upon arrival. It's practical style and modern feel create such a warm atmosphere throughout, which I am sure will help to make your dog feel right at home from the moment his paws touch the doorstep.

The dog friendly property itself is host to a large lawn, with a public footpath aside to the garden's bushes called 'Knight's Way' for a morning stroll. This popular lane could be made into a more extensive walk for those keen to explore during the afternoon perhaps.

Internally the property is laid with practical laminate flooring, for those dogs who may need a little more grip the owner has ensured that there are two runners (kept in the garage which guests have access to) that can be put down in the hallway if required. There are rugs placed in variation throughout the property too.

Ludchurch itself is a pretty village and by taking a short car drive for no longer than 10 minutes, would have you reach Wiseman's Bridge bay, which lays on the scenic coastline North of Saundersfoot and leads onto Amroth.

Wisemans Bridge at one time was the stage for rehearsals of the D-Day landings during the Second World War, but I can assure you that these days the setting is much more peaceful! It is a lovely safe haven for all the family and with it's popular beachside pub this area makes the perfect setting for a great sandy day out.

Further along the coastline you reach the long stretch of golden sands at Amroth. Amroth is host to well developed pubs, cafes and shops which are all close by to the beach. Amroth also marks the finish of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path which begins far North in St Dogmaels, Cardigan.

From Saundersfoot you can embrace the say half a mile walk to Wisemans Bridge, going through two tunnels and passing the beach at Coppet Hall. Saundersfoot itself boasts it's fishing harbour, pubs, restaurants and shops as well as it's long stretch of sandy bay. Definitely a place to sit on the beach and enjoy a warming bag of fish and chips!

Rushland really would make for a lovely family getaway this Autumn. The village in which it sleeps is pleasant and welcoming and yet only a little drive away would bring you to walk along the plentiful sandy beaches and rest in a beachside pub.

And the best part is that you don't have to leave your best friend behind.
