Pet-friendly summary
2 Fieldview is a warm, peaceful bungalow at Huttoft that feels set up for guests who travel with dogs. It is the kind of place that welcomes dogs rather than merely tolerating them, and owners who brought theirs give it a 4.7/5 paw rating.
Up to two dogs can stay. The rear garden is secure and paved, so there are no muddy paws, and there is a small porch that guests found handy for feeding and drying a wet dog. A dog bed and bowls are provided, and the garden looks out over open fields where deer, pheasants and geese are regular visitors.
The coast is the main attraction. Huttoft beach is wide, quiet and welcomes dogs, with a cafe at the car terrace, and the coastal path and nature reserve are close by. The bungalow sits on a quiet lane with very little light pollution, which makes it a good spot for stargazing.
Walking with a dog is the catch. The lanes have no pavements and some traffic moves fast, so most guests drive the short distance to the beach rather than walk it. The plot itself is mostly gravel, which some dogs dislike, the field behind can be full of thistles, and flies can be a nuisance in warm weather. The garden fence is low, so it holds small dogs comfortably but may not stop a determined jumper, and the garden has occasionally been overgrown at the end of the season.
Some guests found the bungalow in need of a little attention, mentioning a stiff patio door, a carpet stain, tired mattresses and a parking space that is tight for a large car, with shared access to the attached neighbour's drive. Others describe it as spotless and the best cottage they have stayed in.
For anyone with one or two dogs who wants a quiet coastal base with big skies and a dog-friendly beach minutes away by car, 2 Fieldview is a relaxing choice.
