Golf View Hotel & Spa

Nairn, Highland

Yes. Dogs can stay in all rooms.

A seafront hotel in Nairn where all the rooms take dogs, the beach is directly accessible and there are dog beds and fires to settle by.

Golf View Hotel & Spa has a seafront setting in Nairn, coastal scenery, which the Hickory restaurant takes in through vast picture windows. All the rooms are dog friendly, and this dog friendly hotel has the Nairn Promenade and Beach directly accessible from the hotel, with beachside pathways leading off along the water.

The dog rules here are written from the dog's point of view and they are short: keep your humans on a lead while in the public areas, keep them on the furniture while you take prime position by the fires or the dog beds, and keep the barks down. The hotel does not say how many dogs a room will hold, so settle that when you book. In the public spaces and the grounds, a leash is asked for.

Dogs eat in a dedicated dining area in the bar when you both get hungry; the Drawing Room is for relaxing rather than eating, and well behaved dogs are welcome there too. Hickory is the restaurant proper, with floor-to-ceiling windows along the shoreline, Scotland's produce on the plate and steaks aged for 28 days before they meet the grill. Afternoon tea arrives with panoramic views towards the Moray Firth, or on the garden terrace at lunchtime.

Coast Spa holds an indoor pool with views across the Moray Firth, an outdoor hot tub, sauna, steam room and Stone Bath, and treatments use ishga and Temple Spa products. The Sea View Junior Suite adds a separate seating area with panoramic views and a roll-top bath. Nairn Beach, 0.7 miles away, is the nearest beach for dogs that we list.

Highlands

Dog Friendly Rating:9/10

One of the best places in Europe to watch wild dolphins from shore, with flat shingle-beach walking along the Moray Firth tideline; strong, dangerous currents at the point mean dogs must stay out of the water there.
