No Weight LimitNewby Bridge Hotel Dog Friendly Review
Newby Bridge Hotel holds an acceptable C Roch Rank. Every room is dog friendly, up to two dogs can share, and there is no weight or size limit. Dogs are welcome throughout the hotel apart from the restaurant and the leisure area, which means the bar, the lounge, the terrace and the garden are all open to you both. The hotel also sets aside dining areas where you can eat breakfast and your evening meal with your dog beside you.
In the room you need to bring your own kit. The hotel does not provide a dog bed, so pack his bed or blanket, and there are no food and water bowls in the rooms, though fresh water bowls and treats are available on request. Dog meals can be bought from the bar, and poop bags are handed out if you forget yours or run out. The charge is £15 per dog, per night, with no damage deposit.
You may leave your dog in the room only if he is in a cage and settled, so bring a crate if you plan to eat in the main restaurant. There is no dog wash, though there are outside taps, and no dog walking, sitting or grooming service, although the team can recommend local kennels, day care and groomers. For walks, the hotel has its own garden, Fell Foot Park is about a mile away, and the team will advise on local routes. Local vets' details are kept for emergencies. This suits an owner of any size of dog who wants a base where the dog can share the bar and the dinner table. Owners who expect a bed and bowls laid on in the room should look elsewhere.
