Explore the dog paradise of Seal Rocks & Pacific Palms
We know what it’s like going away on a family holiday and having to leave your dog behind with a sitter or in a kennel. They don’t need to miss out. Seal Rocks and Pacific Palms regions are a haven for people and dogs alike so it would be a shame not to bring them with you.
Whilst dogs aren’t allowed in national parks, there are plenty of beaches, parks and cafes for them to enjoy with you. There is also plenty of space at the property for them to run around and explore.
Best dog friendly things to do
Here are some of our favourite dog friendly activities to do in the area.
Some of the dog friendly beaches nearby include Boat Beach (Seal Rocks), Sandbar (Smiths Lake), Blueys Beach, Boomerang Beach and One Mile Beach in Forster. Dogs can be walked on leads between 5am-9am and 5pm-8pm.
Your pooch will be puffed just by running around the property. But for a change of scenery there are a number of designated off leash areas nearby. Try the Brambles Reserve at Tarbuck Bay, Sandbar/Cellito Beach and Coomba foreshore.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome at most cafes with outdoor tables. Our recommendations for great coffees and their love of dogs is The Good Food Store at Smiths Lake, Kembali at Blueys Beach, Single Fin Coffee at Seal Rocks.
Grab lunch on the lawn at The Recky (Pacific Palms Recreation Club) in Elizabeth Beach. Dogs aren’t allowed inside but there is plenty of seating on the lawn and its located on the shores of Wallis Lake so your dog can cool off in the water.
Some things to bear in mind
We absolutely love hosting people with their pooches. We know first hand how great it can be to stay at Warialda with your dog and discover the local area. There are just a few things we ask you to keep in mind to ensure the experience remains the best for everyone.
Terms & Conditions
Guests agree to terms and conditions upon booking. Please review these terms and conditions as they are designed to help create a quality guest experience for all guests including dog owners and outline important things for you to be aware of.
Tick & Flea Treatment
Ticks manage to get on dogs all year round, but the highest risk is in spring and summer. We strongly recommend dogs be treated for fleas and ticks before arriving or wearing tick and flea collars to avoid bringing or picking up ticks and fleas in the area.
Impact On Wildlife
We’re working hard to build habitat gardens that provide protection and food for native animals. We appreciate dogs being kept off the garden beds as we have seedinlings growing and having them under control at all times in case they encounter wildlife.
Holiday Behaviour
Dogs that are well-behaved at home, may not be as well-behaved when they are left at an unfamiliar place by themselves. If you think there is a chance your dog may become anxious and destructive once you’ve left for the day please bring a crate so they feel safe and secure without you there
Cleanliness
We’re a bit hairy when it comes to dog hair and odour on the couches and bedding. We want Warialda to be a place everyone can enjoy and it can take some time to get rid of excessive dog hair. Additional charges may apply for any damage or excessive cleaning that may be required if pet hair, urine, fleas, odour or any evidence of the pet be left behind. Please pick up after your dog with the pooper scooper provided
Liability
Dogs are the responsibility of their owners. We accept no responsibility for death of, loss of, injury or sickness to pets during the accommodation period – full and sole responsibility for the pet and its actions lie with the pet owner and upon acceptance of terms and conditions, guests agree that no legal action (including payment of veterinary accounts) will be taken against the landlord and that no discussion will be entered into.
