Pet Friendly

Dog-Friendly at BIG4 Bendigo Marong

At BIG4 Bendigo Marong, we’re passionate about pets. Our team members are dedicated canine carers. Between us, we own two whippets, two Great Danes, two Groodles, a Cavoodle, a German Shepherd, and even a tiny teacup Chihuahua! These are our own much-loved pets, and we understand how hard it can be to leave your furry companions at home. That is why we have created a truly pet-friendly park where your dog can enjoy the holiday just as much as you do.

Fun extras for your dog

  • Off-leash play area and dog wash available on site
  • A list of dog-friendly activities in Bendigo is available from Reception

Out and about with your dog

Bendigo is a fantastic destination for travelling with your dog. Enjoy a walk around the Great Stupa, take a ride on the Talking Tram, or explore the many off-leash parks and open spaces throughout the region. Our team is always happy to share local tips and recommendations to help you and your dog make the most of your stay.
