Ladybower Inn

Bamford, Derbyshire

Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.

An inn across the road from Ladybower Reservoir in the Peak District, newly refurbished, with dogs at home in the bar and a four poster Honeymoon Suite.

Across the road from the Ladybower Reservoir, at the heart of the Peak District, the Ladybower Inn has been newly refurbished. A warm welcome awaits everyone at this dog friendly inn, from guests staying a few nights to those popping in for a drink and maybe something to eat.

Seven en-suite bedrooms take in twin, double and family rooms, and there are some dog friendly rooms among them, so tell the inn yours is coming when you book. Beyond that, the inn doesn't say how many rooms are dog friendly, how many dogs can share one or whether a charge applies, so those are worth asking about too. The newly installed Honeymoon Suite comes with a four poster bed, plus a roll top bath in the room.

Dogs can come into the bar, which pours a great range of beers, Batemans among them, alongside a wide list of wines and spirits. Eating with a dog beside you is one thing the inn doesn't say anything about, so raise it when you reserve a table. From the kitchen comes breakfast, a lunchtime snack or an evening meal, and most of the menu is locally sourced.

Families are welcome as well, and a virtual tour lets you look round the bar and the rooms before you arrive. For a walk with the dog, Wildpack lists Ladybower Reservoir Circular Walk 2.2 miles from the inn and Win Hill from Hope Village 2.4 miles off.
