    - 1st Aug - 22 Aug


    We live in a lovely country cottage in Hertfordshire, close to Ashridge, surrounded by beautiful countryside and great walking routes. We’re home to two very sweet minature dachshunds — Bertie (wire-haired) and Dottie (smooth-haired) — who love company, walks, and a cosy cuddle. We’re looking for someone who enjoys being around dogs and will take good care of them while enjoying a peaceful countryside setting. We are 12 mins from Berkhamsted. We have private parking, a well equipped kitchen and a garden.
