Overview

The Mole Resort in Devon offers the perfect escape for those seeking dog friendly luxury in the heart of the countryside. Nestled within 125 acres of rolling hills and scenic landscapes, the resort is home to a collection of beautifully designed lodges that cater to both two-legged and four-legged guests.

The spacious two, three and four-bedroom lodges provide all the modern comforts you could wish for, including open plan living areas, fully equipped kitchens and private decks – ideal for soaking up the serene surroundings.

Each lodge has been thoughtfully tailored to welcome dogs, with practical features like easy-clean floors and plenty of room for your pup to stretch out after a day of exploring. You’ll also find added touches, such as water bowls and treats, to ensure your canine companion feels right at home.

With direct access to endless countryside trails, your pampered pooch will be in their element bounding through fields or sniffing along woodland paths – or enjoying some off-lead playtime in the secure dog park.

For humans, the lodges are a tranquil haven, combining stylish interiors with breathtaking views of the Devon landscape. Whether you’re relaxing in front of the TV, enjoying a family meal, or stargazing from the deck, the lodges offer a perfect retreat.

The Area

Tucked away in the picturesque North Devon countryside, The Mole Resort draws its name from the River Mole, which you’ll encounter if you’re driving south into the resort. The nearby village of Chittlehamholt is just a short walk away, and just a 10-minute drive from the resort, you’ll find Chittlehampton, home to a country pub, a church and a shop that sells freshly-baked cakes and savoury treats.
