1 / 8Derby Arms
Longridge, Lancashire
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.
A village inn in the Forest of Bowland between Longridge and Chipping, with specific dog friendly rooms and a bar where dogs on the lead are welcome.
Set in the Forest of Bowland between Longridge and Chipping, the Derby Arms is a striking village inn that pairs a bustling country pub with contemporary dining rooms, and it is popular with walkers who come for the remote country walks around it. This dog friendly inn keeps specific rooms for dogs, and has a pub that would love to welcome your well behaved dog into the bar.
The rooms are contemporary and modern, with en suite bathrooms and flat-screen TVs, and the inn asks that dogs don't climb up on the furniture. After a walk, ask a member of the team for a towel for wet and muddy paws before you come in, and poo bags are available from them too. On dog numbers per room, and on whether a dog may be left by itself, the Derby Arms doesn't say; ask when you book.
A well behaved dog can join you in the bar area, on its lead at all times, but pets aren't permitted in the restaurant area. The chefs cook light, fresh seafood dishes alongside hearty, classic meat dishes in a traditional pub setting with a modern twist, and the morning starts with a hearty full Lancashire breakfast.
Ask the team and they will suggest dog walking routes in the local area. On Wildpack's map, Longridge Fell from Jeffrey Hill is 2.3 miles away and Beacon Fell Country Park 3.2 miles.
