Bank House

Kings Lynn, Norfolk

Yes. Dogs can stay in all rooms.

A Georgian townhouse hotel beside the river in King's Lynn, with dogs allowed at the bar, in the restaurant and out on the riverside terrace.

Bank House was built in the early 18th century for one of King's Lynn's richest merchants, in a town that was once a major medieval and Georgian trading port. Today the Grade II* listed townhouse has twelve bedrooms, plus a bar, a restaurant and a west facing riverside terrace that dogs can share with you, so Bank House works as a dog friendly hotel over a drink or a meal.

Any of the rooms can take a well behaved dog, so choose by character. Designers Guild fabrics and antique furniture sit with Regency cartoons and modern paintings, and most rooms look over the river, with others facing the Custom House or the old rooftops of the town. Ring reception to check availability before you bring your dog. On the same call, ask what Bank House doesn't say: how many dogs share a room, and whether one can stay behind while you're out.

At mealtimes the dog comes along, since dogs are allowed in the bar, in the restaurant and on the riverside terrace, for drinks and meals alike. The bar was once the bank manager's office and now has an open fire and comfortable seating, with space by your chair for a dog to stretch out over ales, wine or a cocktail. The menu changes regularly: modern brasserie food from the produce of the area, plus afternoon teas, a traditional Sunday roast and cakes all day.

In the bedrooms, bathrooms are modern, most with power showers, and the beds are made up in crisp white linen. The Counting House serves drinks as well, though the hotel names only the bar, restaurant and terrace for dogs. Snettisham Beach, Wildpack's nearest dog friendly beach, lies 8.1 miles from the house.
