Alex Forsyth
Friendly approachable trained staff, superior accommodation and play areas. Mackie was well cared for, met many new canine friends and socialised well. Staff were willing to help by continuing his training, He was clean, groomed when collected, happy and full of energy on returning home. I know of no other kennels in the area offering this first class service. Thoroughly recommended. Well done Hiliary.

Tam absolutely loves visiting and comes back very tired. The grooming packages are fantastic. Far easier for her to be done at the kennels than me doing it at home

Skye comes to Grassgarth every week for day care, Its like a home from home and Skye loves it here! Hilary and all the staff are brilliant- we have a real gem in the Lyth Valley
Chris Morris. Bristol
We placed our dog, Dexter, with Grassgarth Kennels, when on holiday in the lakes. Picking him up each morning and returning him every evening. We where apprehensive as to how he would react to being in kennels as 4 months ago he reacted badly to being in a rescue centre kennels. Our concerns were unfounded, testament to the way he trotted of happily to his kennel each evening. We would recommend Grassgarth Kennels without hesitation
