Laurel Cottage is our self-contained one-bedroom annexe behind our house in Odiham. The High Street, village pubs and Basingstoke Canal are all a few minutes' walk away. Inside, there's a double bedroom, a sofa bed, a proper kitchen with a Nespresso machine, a washer and dryer, a desk and fast Wi-Fi. It sleeps up to four, and you can bring up to two dogs.
People stay with us for weekends in the village, work at RAF Odiham or around Basingstoke and Farnborough, or to visit family nearby. You'll have your own gate and front door, and let yourself in with a keypad code. There's free street parking outside. We live right next door, so if you have a question or need a hand with anything, we're close by.

Dog friendly
Bring the dog. Or two.
The courtyard is fully enclosed, so your dog can have a sniff around while you sit outside with a coffee. There are dog bowls in the kitchen, too.
Our Yorkie, Daisy, lives next door, so your dog will need to be comfortable around other dogs.
For a walk, Yvonne recommends the Basingstoke Canal towpath. The Fox & Goose in the village welcomes dogs, too.
The area
A village with plenty nearby

The towpath is an easy starting point for a walk, with or without the dog. There's a canalside pub to head for along the way.
Getting around
RAF Odiham is just outside the village. Basingstoke and Farnborough are both a short drive away. Hook has the nearest station and a large Tesco, about five minutes away by car.
