Book now with Booking.com

Margate has held its own as a seaside town since 1730, and No. 42 is one of the Victorian beauties on the front in the characterful Old Town, poised above the main swathe of golden sands. It reads as a dog friendly hotel: on the lead in the lobby and all public areas, then the inevitable head rubs.

The rooms that take dogs are the Large Guest Rooms and the Large Guest Rooms with Sea View, where the pantry hands over unlimited treats. Those rooms run to a roll-top bath with a separate shower and a view of the High Street or the sea. Dogs may be left alone in a bedroom once reception knows and has a number to reach you on, and the house asks that dogs keep off the furniture in the public spaces.

Dogs are not allowed in Pearly Cow or in the treatment rooms, but The Lounge Bar just inside the High Street doors is where you and the dog settle in together. Pearly Cow is the grill above Margate's sands, built on sea-fresh seafood, flame-grilled meats and beef fat chips. Up on the roof there is another bar, serving cocktails and snacks.

The Treatment Rooms sit on the lower ground floor, where massage and facials are the point and the Copper Cove ritual runs to a copper bath for two. Margate Main Sands is 0.1 miles from the door, the closest beach on Wildpack's map, so look up the dog rules on its page first. Pegwell Bay Nature Reserve Circular Walk is further out at 4.8 miles.
