Casa Filo, a pet-friendly rural house near Gandía
Travelling with a pet should not be complicated. At Casa Filo we know this well, which is why we have thought of those who travel with their dog, cat or any furry companion. Our rural house in Xeresa, 10 minutes from Gandía, is pet friendly: animals are welcome and are part of the adventure.
Why choose a pet-friendly rural house?
Conventional hotels often put up barriers: restricted rooms, high extra deposits or outright bans. In a rural house like ours, your pet has real space to move around, a courtyard to explore, and a quiet environment very different from the urban bustle. The stress animals suffer on long journeys is greatly reduced when the destination gives them freedom.
The courtyard: every pet's favourite corner
Casa Filo's inner courtyard is an enclosed and safe space where your dog can sunbathe, rest in the shade or simply explore while you enjoy a coffee. No traffic, no noise — just the sound of birds and the wind through the orange trees. It is one of the spaces most valued by guests who travel with animals.
The surroundings: perfect for dog walks
Xeresa and its surroundings are ideal for going out with your pet:
- Rural paths and trails: the natural landscapes of Xeresa offer peaceful routes through orange groves and fields where dogs can roam freely without bothering anyone.
- L'Ahuir beach: a natural, less crowded beach — especially outside peak season — perfect for an early-morning dip with your dog.
- Gandía Marjal: the wetland paths are ideal for calm walks surrounded by nature.
- Xeresa village: a small, quiet village where you can stroll without stress, with locals well used to seeing dogs in the street.
Tips for travelling with a pet to Casa Filo
To make the stay perfect for both you and your animal, we recommend:

- Carrying enough water for the journey and their regular bowl.
- Checking with us before booking so we can get everything ready in advance.
A getaway for the whole family
Many of our guests tell us that the best thing about travelling to Casa Filo with their pet is the feeling of normality: there is no need to hide the dog or ask permission for every little thing. Your animal is another member of the group and we treat them as such.
