ROTHWELL RUN 

Located in Little River, Rothwell Run is a dog boarding service equipped with a large purpose-built dog pool for guests to hire. That's right, you can plan a pool day with your pooches! They have the ability to cater for dogs and their owners so you can enjoy a day out and use their BBQ facilities with a group. Dogs can enjoy their shallow paddling sections as well as splash around in the deeper waters, so there is something for every skill level. Find out more about hiring the venue here.
