Angel Forest

Angel Forest is a small Japanese resort brand for travelling with dogs, with two properties: Shirakawa Kogen, in the Fukushima highlands, and Nasu, in Tochigi. Both are cottage resorts in the middle of nature, designed from the start for guests with dogs, with play runs and hot-spring services for dogs.

Angel Forest Shirakawa Kogen covers some two million square metres at 700 metres of altitude and accepts dogs in all room types; other animals are only accepted in the Dome Cottage Kaura. Its restaurant has all seats dog-friendly, and the resort offers a lakeside dog run and a hot-spring spa for dogs.

Angel Forest Nasu has cottages each with a private dog run, plus shared runs and a dog-friendly restaurant. The maximum number of dogs depends on the room type, there are no breed restrictions except aggressive dogs, and the resort defines a large dog as one of 50 centimetres or more at the shoulder. Both resorts' policies are published on the brand's official website.
