Pet Policy

Paws and Relax

At Skelwith Bridge Hotel, we wholeheartedly understand that dogs are cherished members of your family. That's why we take immense pride in being a dog-friendly establishment, where your four-legged friends are not just welcome; they're celebrated.

Dog-Friendly Areas

Your canine companions are welcome to join you in both the Talbot Bar and throughout our hotel premises. We kindly request that out of consideration for other guests, all dogs are kept on leads while inside the hotel. We also appreciate your efforts to ensure your pets are as clean and dry as possible during their stay. While dogs are part of our family, we want to ensure that everyone enjoys a comfortable and hygienic environment.

Amenities for Dogs

To make your furry friend's stay even more enjoyable, we offer a range of amenities. At the reception and the Talbot Bar, you'll find treats to reward your pets for their good behaviour. We also provide fresh bowls of water, ensuring your dog stays well-hydrated. Should the inevitable happen during your adventures, spare doggy bags are readily available at our reception. Additionally, we've designated a waste bin at the front of the hotel exclusively for these special deposits, making clean-up a breeze.

Dining with Dogs

While dogs are cherished guests, they are not permitted in the main hotel restaurant to maintain a tranquil dining atmosphere for all. However, we understand that you may want to dine with your four-legged companions. For your convenience, we offer dining options in both the snug area and the Talbot Bar, where you can enjoy a meal with your pet by your side. Moreover, we've crafted a special "VIP” menu available exclusively in the Talbot Bar.

  • Pet Fee

    We require a nominal charge of £10 per dog, per night, to help us maintain our dog-friendly amenities and services to the highest standards. This fee ensures that we can continue to provide a warm welcome to dogs and their owners alike.

  • Cleanliness Assurance

    For guests who are not traveling with four-legged friends, we want to assure you that your comfort is our top priority. Our dedicated housekeeping team follows a thorough deep cleaning process after each pet-friendly stay to ensure that no traces of our furry guests remain, guaranteeing a pristine environment for all guests.
