"Our many dogs have been to stay ever since pawplay started. They don't want to come home! They are so happy, and really well looked after. It really is their second home."
"After our boxer dog started coming back from her previous "holiday" home unhappy and not herself we were lucky enough to find Paw Play just at the nick of time. What a god send. We never worry about Maisey while we are away and know that when we get back we will have one tired (but very happy) dog. We know how much she loves it there because she always tries to sneak back in when we pick her up. Thank you so much Richard and Pippa x"
"Our very boistrous 4 year old labradoodle has just enjoyed his first stay at Paw Play of 16 nights. What a wonderful experience he had being free all day to play with other dogs. He will never go anywhere else now. We have tried a few kennels and family have also looked after him but when we have returned he has been stressed and smelly. When I collected him after 16 nights he was chilled, relaxed and did not smell. Although he was pleased to see us he clearly misses his new friends. Due to previous experience's I text Richard and Pippa and they quickly reassured me he was having a great time. I now know I can go away and leave Nugget in such capable hands with Richard and Pippa who understand he is just a great big crazy hound."
"What a wonderful K9 retreat! We would not leave our black labrador Archie anywhere else, he loves it there. We had to leave him for an extended stay & were rather worried as he had developed a severe noise phobia. No need to have worried. He reurned home a new dog, just like his old self, full of fun, scared of nothing, lean & fit. We are so grateful to the fantastic & loving care given to him."
"Colin, our Great Dane has just returned from his first stay at Pawplay and has slept ever since he got back. He obviously had such a great time playing with everyone. A big thank you to Richard and Pippa as I didn't have a moments anxiety about leaving him in such capable hands. It is not easy to look after a Great Dane but they did a fantastic job. I will certainly use them again and Colin can't wait to see his friends again. A very happy dog!"
"Odie is our jack russel. He loves it at pawplay. Mum sends him there when we go away. There are loads of other jack russels for him to hang out with and he especially loves a retriever called Suki. Thumbs up for pawplay."
"My dog Ros has been coming to Pawplay since she was a puppy. She has always loved coming here, and now, when let out of the car at the top of the lane, runs to the entrance without ever looking back. Clearly a sign she is happy! It simply offers something other places don't (or can't); plenty of land for the dogs to run free, and stimulation from constant play with other dogs. As well as getting fantastic exercise, it has been an education for Ros in how to interact with other dogs. Highly recommended."
"Me and my best pal Monty just LOVE going to stay with Pippa and Richard. In fact when our Old Fella comes to take us home we just don't want to leave. This place comes with a 5 woof [sorry...star] recommendation."
"We first heard about Pawplay by word of mouth (always the best recommendation). We went to have a look round prior to our holiday and were very impressed. Percy made himself at home right away. A week into our holiday we were wondering how he was getting on so sent Pip & Richard a text. We received a reply almost immediately assuring us that Percy was having a great time which put our minds at rest. When we collected him, he didn't seem at all keen on coming with us. When we got him home, he slept for nearly two days! Clearly he had had a great time. Thank you."
"This is an amazing place to take your dog, your dog will have a holiday too! We used the day care and my dog lost weight, learnt how to be a dog again and got really excited about going each day. I would recommend to anyone - the owners are really great and real dog lovers!"
"After Storm had been so stressed in kennels, this was the perfect doggie holiday for her. In fact when I went to pick her up she was so content and comfortable she took herself back off to her cabin rather than want to get in the car."
"They had a fantastic time, they were happy and worn out when they came home. I could tell they had loved it."
"They really love it there. Alfie always comes back exhausted."
"Lu Lu never wants to leave. I think she likes the rabbits."
