1 / 8Langley Castle Hotel
Hexham, Northumberland
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms, up to 2 dogs per room.
A 14th century castle hotel in the South Tyne Valley, where dogs stay in rooms in Castle View and the Castle Lodges and walks start at the door.
Langley Castle's walls are up to seven feet thick, and the 14th century medieval castle sits in the South Tyne Valley in Northumberland, surrounded by ten acres of private gardens and woodland and a short distance from Hadrian's Wall. The castle makes a dog friendly hotel you needn't leave: you can stay put with the dog, with walks from the door and strolls around Langley's land and the local lanes.
Dogs stay in designated rooms in Castle View and the Castle Lodges rather than the main Castle bedrooms, with a maximum of two medium-sized dogs per room; large dogs aren't permitted. Castle View's 19 rooms, where specific rooms are set aside for dogs, are recent conversions in the grounds with views of the castle's architecture and gardens, from standard rooms to suites, and Rooms 26 and 27 in the lodges have private terraces with a castle view. Call the Castle directly to book a stay with your dog. Leaving a dog by itself in the room isn't covered, as the castle's pages don't say, so raise it on that call.
The Drawing Room on the first floor is where dogs join you, for relaxed dining, afternoon teas or a quiet nightcap under high-beamed ceilings and exposed stone walls seven feet thick. Dogs are not allowed in the main restaurant, and across the castle the menus draw on Northumberland ingredients, from slow-cooked red meats to freshly caught fish.
Outside, dogs are kept on a lead in the grounds, and the hotel's own Doggy Scents of Place Guide leads noses around the estate. Further out, Wildpack's Allen Banks and Staward Peel Circular lies 2.5 miles off, and Hadrian's Wall: Vindolanda to Twice Brewed is 4.7 miles from the castle for a longer day out with the dog.
