Blacksmiths Beachside Holiday Park

Blacksmiths Beachside Holiday Park is a caravan and cabin park close to Blacksmiths Beach, with dog-friendly cabins and camp sites available year-round, including school holidays.

The pet policy. Dogs are welcome all year round, including peak school holiday periods, which is not a given at every holiday park. Specific dog-friendly cabins and villas are set aside, and camping or caravan sites also generally allow dogs. Some breeds are prohibited, and the park requires you to contact the office directly to register your dog and confirm which sites or cabins are available before you book.

What's there. Ensuite sites, a camp kitchen and BBQ areas, plus clean amenities across the park, all handy if you are staying a few nights with a dog in tow. The park's proximity to the beach means walks are close by rather than a drive away.

Getting there. The park sits close to Blacksmiths Beach with direct beach access, making it easy to get a dog down to the sand without a long walk from your site.

Who it suits. Owners after a relaxed caravan-park stay with straightforward beach access, rather than a fully self-contained house. Good for families with a mix of camping and cabin preferences.

Before you book. Call the office to confirm your dog's breed is not on the prohibited list, and ask which specific cabins or sites are dog-friendly, since not all of them are.
