1 / 8Park Head Hotel
Bishop Auckland, County Durham
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.
A modern hotel in Bishop Auckland with dog friendly Courtyard rooms, a bag of treats and a toy for your dog, and the Auckland Walk just opposite.
The Auckland Walk runs opposite Park Head Hotel and offers miles of walks, which makes this modern, dog friendly hotel in Bishop Auckland an easy choice with a dog in tow. It is a welcoming base for County Durham, with stylish rooms, a contemporary restaurant and a true North East welcome.
Dogs stay in the designated dog-friendly rooms in the Courtyard. These are light, airy and comfortable rooms over two floors, with outdoor access and the South Terrace and Resident's Garden around them. Your four-legged friend gets a bag of treats and a toy as part of the hotel's pet package. How many dogs each Courtyard room can take, the hotel doesn't state, so ask when you book.
The Oak Room Restaurant and Bar serves hearty, timeless classics from breakfast to evening meals, made with local produce, most of it grown in the Walled Garden at Auckland Castle. Afternoon tea brings sandwiches, savouries, scones and sweet treats with unlimited tea or coffee, Sunday lunch comes with lashings of traditional gravy, and there are vegetarian and vegan options. The hotel's pages don't mention dogs in the Oak Room Restaurant and Bar, so raise that when you reserve.
Bishop Auckland Market Place is about 1.5 miles away, and the town centre can be reached on foot via the Auckland Way. With the Auckland Walk across the road, the first outing of the day with your dog starts within sight of the hotel.
