The property is well maintained, very cosy and welcoming. Host Chris is excellent and nothing was too much trouble. Our little dog was most welcome and I think she enjoyed having a yard to sniff around in and play ball. I would highly recommend this to other travelers with dogs. Easy walk into the town for coffee or dinner at the local pub.

Heritage Stay

As the name says, Must Love Dogs.

We were able to take our tri-pawd Pug on a holiday with us instead of putting her in a boarding kennel. Once the initial meet and greets were done with the Host’s dogs she had a great time as did we.

The welcome package on our first day, and more so the country breakfast each morning set us up for the day.

We would definitely look to stay here again if we are in this region.

Absolutely perfect B&B.
An original B&B in that you get a very comfortable bed & delicious cooked brekky!
And you get to interact with the host.
Chris was an excellent delight as were her adorable dogs. Great stories to tell & great recommendations for where to eat within walking distance to town.
Very comfortable inside our private garden suite c/w fridge, tea, plunger coffee, fresh milk, & an excellent outdoor garden area for us & our boisterous Kelpie.
Safe country suburban streets for that morning dog walk.
PLUS special treats for all - humans & canines!

We loved our stay in every way! Chris was so welcoming and helpful from the moment she confirmed our booking to saying our reluctant goodbyes. We stayed in the Garden Suite which was cosy with pretty decor and some lovely touches such as hand cream and fabulous bath salts to enjoy in the beautiful claw foot bath. It was an easy walk into town, and also to Jones and De Bortoli wineries. We absolutely loved Chris and Charlie's gorgeous dogs! We don't have a dog ourselves but really enjoyed all the attention from their five adorable fur babies. Chris cooked up a delicious breakfast of Eggs Benedict, served in a beautiful dining room, and we enjoyed our long and engaging chats with Chris. We hope to be able to visit again! Thanks Chris, Charlie and pups.

Chris has a unique adventure awaiting any guests. Her attention is personal to each guest and the venue is enthralling. I won't ruin it for future guests but Chris has fabulous tales to tell of the Old Globe Hotel which is now Must Love Dogs B & B. And has it been mentioned? Dogs are very much loved here, Chris is a Rescue \"Hero\" and is deservong of all plaudits that are given her.

Must love dogs the name says it all

We had such a great weekend, everything was perfect from the call earlier in the day confirming the check in procedure, the garden apartment was spacious and included all amenities. Chris the host made lovely breakfasts both mornings and we will definitely be back. The fact that dogs are more then welcome makes this a unique and wonderful stay.

Great Stay for You and Your Dog!

Beautiful place to stay with your dog. Chandelier suite roomy and very comfortable. Have stayed in the Garden Suite which although smaller, is also very comfortable. Each suite has its own secure doggy garden. Delicious afternoon tea ( for you and your dog) provided on arrival. Yummy breakfasts cooked to perfection. Nothing too much trouble. Walking distance to Rutherglen township. Hosts knowledgeable about the area and can guide you on wineries and restaurants where dogs are welcomed. Highly recommended!

A perfect location close to the main of Rutherglen

My son and I spent a wonderful two days and nights at Must Love Dogs and look forward to returning. Such a quaint and homely Bed & Breakfast. We were warmly welcomed on arrival and with afternoon tea, a home-made chocolate muffin, tea and coffee making facilities.. It was clean, spacious and warm with comfortable good quality beds, plenty of warm bedding, good sized bathroom with extras, old-fashioned bath and ceiling heater. Such luxury!!A good quality heater which kept us very warm throughout. It is delightfully furnished to make one feel truly at home. There's a wonderful enclosed garden ( did not have my dog with us this time but she would love it!!). A home-cooked breakfast was provided, the ingredients were purchased upon request. Breakfast was a family affair with dogs in tow, a cosy pooch on your lap and a musical background. We were given useful information about Rutherglen and its surrounds eg. where to visit,where to eat, wineries etc., Wine tours were on offer too.The staff were so willing to accommodate our every needs. we were so appreciative. We felt we had made new friends.

Perfect for dogs and their family!!

Located on the fringe of town this really is a home away from home. We were warmly welcomed by Chris and quickly able to settle ourselves and dog into this wonderful B&B. The private courtyard was a dog paradise and also had seating for us to enjoy a cup of tea and delicious afternoon tea provided by Chris - the dog also enjoyed some special treats. On our short walk to town with the dog in tow we discovered the rail trail, a great track for bikes/running/walking. Breakfast was delicious, generous and most filling. The huge bath was tempting but on our overnight stay we didn't have time! An excellent base to explore the surrounding area. Will definitely stay again when in the area.

Pancakes to die for: you'll be thanking your pet!

This was our second stay at Must Love Dogs. It says a lot when you return to the same place despite the competition in the Rutherglen wine region. This time we chose the Garden Suite which has a fabulous bathroom (shower cubicle has a glass roof). It was perfectly suitable even if it lacked the Chandelier Suite grandeur. As the hotel's name suggests dogs are not only allowed but wholeheartedly welcome! In fact Chris and Charlie who own and run he place will look after your pet(s) should you wish to visit many of the local wineries. Charlie's pancakes are legendary and ave to be seen (and eaten) to be believed! I am thankful to my dog that I had the opportunity to stay at Must Love Dogs!
