Welcome to Rill House – A Multi-Dog Friendly Holiday Cottage in South Devon
A Grade II listed, multiple award-winningholiday cottage on a quiet, pretty lane in the heart of the picturesque village of Slapton, offering a completely different kind of dog-friendly holiday.

Dog-friendly holidays in South Devon should feel easy, not full of rules.
At Rill House, there are no restrictions on dog numbers or breeds. Dogs are welcome in every room, on sofas and beds, because we believe dogs should be part of your holiday, not an afterthought.
Unlike most UK holiday cottages, which limit guests to one or two dogs, Rill House is specifically set up for people travelling with multiple dogs — offering a genuinely relaxed and practical alternative.
This isn’t a cottage that allows dogs, it’s one that’s been designed around them. For guests who have struggled to find somewhere that truly welcomes multiple dogs, we offer something refreshingly different.

Rill House comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests across 4 bedrooms, offering generous living space for both people and dogs.
The layout works particularly well for guests travelling with multiple dogs, with hard flooring where it matters, cosy spaces to relax, and easy access to the garden.
You won’t find “dog rules” everywhere — just a space that feels practical and welcoming from the moment you arrive.
The large, enclosed quater of an acre garden is one of the standout features of Rill House.
Rill House offers over a quarter of an acre of enclosed garden and courtyard space with minimum 4ft boundaries, allowing you to arrive, open the car doors and let your dogs out with confidence.
However, it’s important to say this clearly:
No outdoor space can ever be guaranteed “secure” for every dog. We know dogs vary hugely in size, agility and behaviour, what one dog respects, another may test.
What Rill House provides is:
Clearly defined boundaries A large, enclosed quarter of an acre environment
Space that works far better than typical small cottage gardens. You can explore the layout and boundaries in more detail here: View our outside space & garden page
