Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms, up to 3 dogs per room.
A country manor hotel in the Blackdown Hills, East Devon, with an off-lead dog play area, a dipping lake for dogs and 45 acres of estate to explore.
Lakeview Manor is a traditional country manor house hotel set in 45 acres of gardens and private parkland, with two fully stocked fishing lakes, right in the heart of the Blackdown Hills. Some of that estate at this dog friendly hotel has been made for dogs: a fenced play area where they can run off the lead, and a dipping lake created especially for dogs who love the water.
Dogs stay in a number of pet friendly rooms throughout the hotel. The hotel allows up to three dogs, and there is no extra charge for bringing them. The pet friendly rooms are as stylish and comfortable as the rest, with space set aside for your dog to settle in, and dog beds can be added to your booking. The welcome is for well behaved dogs, and the hotel doesn't accept dogs listed under the Dangerous Dogs Act. After a swim, a dog wash near the reception entrance runs hot and cold water, so you can rinse muddy paws and warm them up.
Dogs are welcomed in the bar and can join you in the Dabbling Duck Restaurant for breakfast and dinner, with the restaurant overlooking the lake. Breakfast is a full one made with local ingredients and comes with your stay, or a packed lunch to take away if you're up and out before it opens. Evenings mean a drink at the bar or a meal from the menu.
Outside, the lakeside and woodland walks begin from the door, and a bench by the dipping lake lets you sit while the dog splashes, paddles and cools down. Wildpack's map adds Culmstock Beacon and Black Down Common from Hemyock, 3.7 miles from the manor, and Charmouth Beach, our closest dog friendly beach, 16 miles off.
