No Weight LimitThe Devonshire Fell Hotel Dog Friendly Review
The Devonshire Fell Hotel holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This spot is a solid choice for dog owners, with most rooms welcoming your four-legged friends. Dogs are allowed in the bar, restaurant, and public areas, which is a nice touch, but they can't join you on the terrace or patio. A big plus is that dogs can be left alone in the room, though housekeeping won't refresh the room if your pup is inside. This flexibility is a lifesaver for those who want to explore without their canine companion.
Amenities are a bit sparse: bowls are provided, but no dog beds, so pack your own. However, the hotel does offer free treats, which is a nice gesture. There's no dedicated dog space, though dogs can use the garden, and nearby public green spaces offer plenty of walking opportunities.
The fee is £20 per night per dog, which is reasonable, but keep in mind there's no damage deposit. The absence of weight restrictions is a relief, allowing larger breeds like Labradors to stay without issue. However, the lack of dog-walking or sitting services might be a drawback for some. Overall, the Devonshire Fell Hotel offers a decent dog friendly experience, but don't expect luxury-level pampering for your pooch.
