Don’t you hate it when you book ‘pet-friendly’ accommodation only to find that your furkids aren’t allowed inside the house? Well you can relax this time because Yondah Beach House is genuinely pet-friendly.

We understand that your dog is an important member of the family (our labrador is a total princess) so yes, of course your dog is allowed inside… we’ll even leave out a small doggy gift to say ‘welcome’! With so much coastline to explore, Yondah really is a dogs’ paradise!

There’s no fencing around the house so if your dog is a potterer and happy to stay with you, then no problem, especially as the house is 1km from the road. But if your dog is a wanderer or kangaroo chaser, he/she will need to be leashed, particularly in the warmer months when encounters with snakes are more likely.

We’ve welcomed many different pets at Yondah including dogs, cats, birds and turtles. Of course common sense should prevail at all times to prevent injury to pets and damage to the house, garden or fragile coastal environment.

You’ll need to bring all your dog’s food, dishes and bedding plus a couple of very large, clean covers for the sofas if your dog is a pampered pooch like our girl. Although dogs are allowed inside, we ask that you never leave them alone in the house. We also ask that they not be allowed on the beds, and that you don’t allow them to chase wildlife. And of course all dog poo should be properly disposed of in the rubbish bin at the gate.

Also, keep in mind that Yondah is located in a remote and natural coastal environment so snakes may be encountered in the warmer weather between October and March. For this reason, we suggest that dogs are kept on-leash when out walking during the warmer months. Please also note that we have no fenced area that’s suitable for ‘leaving’ your dog as this practice could increase the risk of snake bite.
