Planning a dog-friendly Lake District break? Bring them along.

We have selected dog-friendly rooms where up to two dogs can stay, with dog beds and bowls available too — so there’s a little less to pack.

Dogs are welcome in the bar and lounge throughout the day, making it easy to relax together after a day exploring Ullswater and the surrounding fells.

We also have dog-free rooms available for guests who prefer them or have allergies.

Dogs stay for £20 per night and can be added as an extra when booking online.
