1 / 8The Bay Tree Hotel
Burford, Oxfordshire
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.
A honey-coloured Cotswold stone hotel in Burford, where the room comes with a bed and bowl for the dog and a sausage at breakfast.
The Bay Tree stands on Sheep Street in Burford behind a wisteria-draped archway, honey-coloured Cotswold stone outside, restored flagstone floors, open fireplaces and exposed beams within. Dogs suit a building like this, and the dog friendly hotel label is earned here: the bar and the garden are both open to them, and a selection of rooms is specially allocated to you and your companion.
Tell the hotel at the time of booking that the dog is coming and one of those rooms is held for you both. The stay brings a dog bed, a water bowl and, at breakfast, a sausage. The rules are brief: dogs kept under control in the hotel and the garden, noise kept down out of courtesy to other guests, and owners clearing up after them. The hotel doesn't mention a dog count or time alone in the bedroom, so raise both at booking.
Dogs dine at your side in the garden or the bar, though they are not permitted in the main restaurant. The bar keeps a log fire, local ales, fine wines and cocktails, with a paper to pick up and a board game if you want one. The restaurant cooks British dishes from local ingredients, candlelit in the evening, with a wine wall to choose from.
The Oak Suite is the large one, a four-poster super king with a separate lounge, a log-burner-style fire and a spa bath, while the Garden Rooms sit in a Cotswold stone building beside the hotel with French doors onto a Juliet balcony. The nearest walk on Wildpack's map, Cotswolds: Burford to Swinbrook, is 0.1 miles away, so the dog can be on it before you have finished your coffee.
