Anyone snuck three dogs into center parcs

Has anyone snuck an extra dog into center parcs? Really want to book one lodge for myself, husband, daughter and parents but we have three dogs between us.

Two of the dogs are same breed so could pass as one, but I’m working out how to you get past the entrance? Do they record number of dogs in each car?

I would hide the smallest one but she’s noisy 😆 so it would be our largest one who would need hiding as she’d keep quiet.

It’s two labradors and Jack Russell. Just seems expensive to pay for a whole extra lodge just to accommodate a dog!

They ask to see all the dogs at check in.

I will, I also apologise to all dog owners for giving you a bad name for a behaviour I was just simply contemplating in my head and asked about on an online forum. 😆 😆 😆

Is this response “very good” too?

Sadly not. You unfortunately get a “zero stars” for being like one of my own rescue dogs, who has raided the bin, been told off and is pretending to be sorry. I can see through both of you!!!
They have an excuse though, being starved/abused/mistreated before they landed with me. What’s your excuse? Just being tight?

Daughter sneaked a cat in once, nobody was happy about that, but she did get away with it

That’s awful.

Why are so many dog people so selfish?

Cuz I love being a selfish it’s my personality…

Why is it the Cat was significantly less trouble than some people’s horrible children

Two dogs are same breed. Daughter takes one a walk outside of the park. You and other check in with two dogs, then one stays with one in cabin drives out and gets Daughter with other dog?

Yep! Sorted!!

Tell the truth op, you don’t own a dog do you? Many dog owners are massive arseholes, but not as bad as you. I call bullshit.
And if not? Dog rescue exists because of people like you. Your poor dog.

I know three people this has happened to! Three! Admittedly the last was about 18 months ago. I can only give the benefit of their experience.

Fair enough. We’ve been dozens of times and never had this.

Ah yes you’ve found me out I own seven anteaters… do you think I can sneak those in?

Once you get to these places, no one seems to mind that you have dogs. You'd think you'd be a pariah the way MN reacts whenever anyone posts about taking dogs away with them, but I've found the opposite is true.

We once took a mum and a litter of puppies to Park Dean. We felt like celebrities. Every time we went to the pub, we had a line of people waiting at our table with camera phones at the ready and a regular stream of visitors knocking on the lodge door.

One little girl still makes me laugh when I think about her. Her mum brought her over and asked if she was allowed to meet the puppies. I gave her one of the more confident ones to hold, and she hugged it, grinned, and then said, "Aw, it's so cute. What is it? A baby rat?"

It was a baby chihuahua, so in fairness to that little girl, she wasn't far wrong Grin

Pls go for it @FlipFlopZebra, and don't forget to add a running commentary here. Infiltrate centre parcs with your 3rd dog! Fuck it, borrow a 4th and take that too.

They've offered pet-friendly options, but you don't want to fork out more. You can take the risk, but if you do then they retain the right to eject you and ban you permanently. I've never been, but friends have and on past occasions they have made a note of breed, colour, name and sex of each dog as you check in and also open the boot to see if there are stowaways. You can see why they do it. I don't know why people can't just follow the rules that they are allowed to set for their own establishment. If you think it's expensive then go somewhere else?

They don’t open the boot. 🙄

I didn’t ask the truth. I asked for people’s experiences of taking three dogs to center parcs. You’ve already confirmed you’ve never been to center parcs so your point isn’t relevant.

a lot of posters on mumsnet seem to get very upset at any sort of ‘rule-breaking’ and you’ll get lots of ott bossy posts telling you off.

I LOVE this response @FlipFlopZebra!!

The complete tizzy people have worked themselves into over a hypothetical situation (or not 😉). I’ve given the perfect solution just now)

Totally agree, always see so much hate on here. but never had someone come up to me in public either my local town or holiday to tell me how awful I am. In fact having dogs normally starts a conversation with others while I’m out and they normally want a stroke and cuddle.

Don’t give me ideas with a litter of puppies 😆

You have a nerve. It’s people like you who ruin it for everyone.

You're thinking of the Trojan War, I think, when an army of jack russells burst out of a wooden labrador and defeated an entire holiday park.

I might just keep quoting this so no one misses it😂

RappelChoan · 10/07/2026 20:52

Labradors are the best dogs in the universe! How could anyone have an issue with two labs instead of one. Anyway they will be too distracted on the gate checking for their Zebra policy so I would not worry.

Did you tell the rescue, at HC, that you didn’t want to pay for him to go on holidays and planned to try and “sneak him in”. I’d wager not. You wouldn’t have passed the HC. Not to worry, lots of people lie. If you are happy to be one of them, so be it.

No l will ring the rescue up in the morning and let them know
