The UK’s Best Dog-Friendly Hotels

Taking your four-legged friends away on holiday with you has never been easier, with more luxury hotels and rentals than ever catering for dog-lovers and their furry plus ones. If you’re looking for the best dog-friendly hotels in the UK, the search ends here. Kim Pearson (and dog Lily) review the best the country has to offer…

First, a few words of advice on taking your furry friend away with you. Most hotels allocate specific rooms for those bringing canines, so always ensure that you let the hotel know you’re bringing your dog with you. Remember that not everyone loves dogs (the horror) and some people are allergic to them, so be mindful of other guests. Be a good dog owner and always clear up after your hound. Don’t forget bags and a towel for cleaning muddy paws. Be aware of areas of the hotel that dogs are not allowed in. These typically include places where food is being served. If you’re not sure, ask the reception team on arrival.

London’s Best Dog-Friendly Restaurants

The Best Dog-Friendly Hotels in the UK

Glenapp Castle – Scotland

The stunning façade of Glenapp Castle is like something out of a Disney film with its enchanting towers and turrets. Located one and a half hours from Glasgow airport or just over a 400-mile drive from London, it’s more than worth the journey. If your furry friend is happy to travel by car we recommend driving as it makes for an adventure full of breath-taking views. On arrival you’ll find the warmest of Scottish welcomes. Each of the bedrooms and suites are unique, recently renovated and capture traditional Scottish luxury perfectly. Visitors refer to the ‘Glenapp Magic’ – a feeling that starts before check in and lasts until after departure.

Lily Loves

The dog-loving staff, who gave her endless love and attention (and weren’t in the least bit put out when her muddy paws met a pristine white shirt. She’s sorry). Dog-friendly rooms with direct access to the castle grounds. There are also star-gazing activities on offer at the hotel that you can take your four-legged friend along to.

Petiquette

There are extensive grounds for dogs to roam freely on but be sure to clear up after him / her. No one likes stepping in an unwelcome surprise while playing a round of croquet. The hotel doesn’t allow dogs in the castle restaurant or the drawing room where food is being served.
