1 / 8Hartford Hall on School Lane
Northwich, Cheshire West and Chester
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.
A 16th century Grade II listed former manor house in the village parish of Hartford, Cheshire, where dogs can settle by the roaring fire.
Hartford Hall on School Lane sits within the walls of a 16th century, Grade II listed building in the village parish of Hartford, Cheshire, first a manor house and still a pillar of the community. It describes itself as an extremely dog friendly pub, and as a dog friendly inn with 20 ensuite bedrooms it is built for leaving nobody at home, four-legged pal included.
Only certain rooms are dog friendly, so flag your dog when booking. The cosy rooms are decorated in relaxing colours, with comfortable king, double and twin beds, and the Chester Suite adds a super king bed and a roll top bath. Hartford Hall doesn't state a dog limit for its rooms, or if a dog may stay alone in one, so raise both when you reserve.
The bar area welcomes dogs, and the hotel suggests a seat beside its roaring fire as the spot for a dog to sink into a quick slumber after a long walk while you enjoy a pint. The menu is traditional pub food made with fresh produce, from pies to fish and chips. Hartford Hall's pages don't mention dogs in the restaurant, so check when booking a table if yours is coming to dinner.
The beer garden and outdoor seating areas are there for drinks or dining outside, and the inn is a base for exploring Cheshire by foot or car. Whitegate Way: Winsford to Cuddington is 2.9 miles from Hartford Hall on Wildpack's map, and Marbury Country Park and Budworth Mere is a 3 mile outing with the dog.
