No Weight LimitThe Ram Inn Dog Friendly Review
The Ram Inn received an acceptable C Roch Rank. While it offers some dog friendly features, there are notable limitations. Most rooms welcome dogs, but they aren't allowed in the restaurant or lounge, which can be a hassle if you want to dine in. The £25 per night fee is on the higher side, especially since essentials like dog beds and bowls aren't provided. You'll need to pack your own gear, which adds to the travel load.
A major plus is the direct access to the garden from the night entrance, making those late-night potty breaks a breeze. However, the lack of nearby parks means you'll need to plan for longer walks. Dogs can stay alone in the room, a big convenience for solo outings. The absence of weight restrictions is a relief for owners of larger breeds, and with a three-dog limit per room, it's a decent option for those with multiple canine companions.
The Ram Inn doesn't offer additional services like dog walking or sitting, which could be a dealbreaker for some. The staff's attitude towards dogs is welcoming, but without any standout perks or awards, it feels like a standard experience. Overall, while The Ram Inn covers the basics, the value doesn't quite match the cost, especially with the limited amenities.
This hotel has been evaluated, ranked and reviewed using the Roch Standard, the world’s first dog friendly standard for the hotel industry. We gathered data directly from the hotel and benchmarked it against thousands of other hotels to accurately and fairly derive its rank.
