What a lifesaver!! Having been cancelled on last minute on Christmas Eve by our sitter, we had to hunt for a space for our dogs Kevin and Maggie. The Retreat kindly took them on, and I am so pleased they did as they were so well looked after. Both came back tired and happy, having stayed in heated and modern kennels. Kevin is a very nervous dog and they made extra effort to ensure he was comfortable and well looked after. A very stressful situation made much easier by these guys, thank so much!

A quick review to say thank you to Alli & Rob for taking such good care of our dog. Our previous kennels closed due to the pandemic and The Retreat couldn't have taken better care of us and the dog in transitioning to a new place. We particularly like the supervised play with selected other dogs. Angus made a new friend in Sam! We will be back. The Retreat is a family run business and their commitment to the animals is clear in everything they do. Thanks again.

I dropped my 10 year old King Charles Cavalier off so I could take my daughter away for a weekend. We were welcomed by Ali at the reception who made Fizzy feel at ease and even showed us around. while we was there I suggested could we also have fizzy groomed which was no problem. This afternoon on our way home we collected fizzy and I must say her grooming was 1st class and I could see she was well looked after. When I go away again I'll be using Ali and her staff again.
