Book now with Booking.com

At Barony Castle, 11 of the bedrooms are set aside just for dogs and their people, and the hotel has been welcoming pets since 2008; dogs, it says, are part of its history. The imposing 16th century castle stands in 25 acres on the edge of the Scottish Borders, with the town of Peebles on the River Tweed a ten minute drive away. The grounds are the reason to choose this dog friendly hotel.

The dog rooms are ten classic doubles and one twin, each ready for up to two dogs, and availability is checked directly with the hotel. Dogs are encouraged to enjoy every part of the room, with one request: no climbing on the furniture. Pack a bed, food and a bowl, treats, a ball to throw and a towel for after the long walks, and if you forget a water bowl or poo bags, just ask. On leaving your dog by itself in the bedroom the hotel doesn't say, so it is one to ask about when booking.

Dogs come along for food and drink in the Blue Dug Bar, the Murray Lounge and the Conservatory, where nearly every dish on the main menu can be brought to you. The hotel has a Rosette awarded restaurant, with an à la carte menu daily in the 1536 Restaurant, and the bar keeps an extensive range of malt whiskies for a dram.

Then there are the grounds, 25 acres where dogs can explore off leash as long as other guests are respected, with two dog stations stocked with poo bags. The Limes Avenue was laid out in the 1620s, and the Yew Tree Walk leads to the Altar. Beyond the gates, the hotel points dog walkers to the forest walking routes around Glentress, a few miles from the castle.
