The Bell at Ramsbury

Marlborough, Wiltshire

Yes. Dogs can stay in 4 dog friendly rooms.

An 18th century coaching inn turned pub in Ramsbury, Wiltshire, where dogs stay free in the converted coach house and join you in the bar and Café Bella.

Built in the 18th century, The Bell at Ramsbury is a former coaching inn turned modern pub at the heart of the Ramsbury community, with a dining room, a coffee shop and ten bedrooms set in the Wiltshire countryside. At this dog friendly inn, dogs stay with you across the road in the converted coach house, home to four of the ten bedrooms.

Dogs are welcome in all four coach house bedrooms at no extra charge. The bedrooms are individually furnished and inspired by the wild surroundings, all en-suite with walk-in showers or warming baths, and the rooms are available on a B&B basis, with a continental buffet and a choice of cooked breakfasts. The inn does not mention how many dogs one coach house room can sleep, or what it expects if a dog stays in the coach house without you, so check both ahead.

Your dog can come with you into the bar and Café Bella, though not into the restaurant. Café Bella is the in-house coffee shop, serving breakfast, Union Coffee, Jeeves & Jericho tea and homemade cakes. The bar pours over 13 beers, ciders and ales on tap, three of them from Ramsbury Brewery, while the kitchen cooks changing menus from British produce, with fish arriving daily from Cornwall.

Ramsbury is surrounded by countryside to explore on foot or by bike, so there is plenty of ground for a dog to cover, and the inn points to OS Maps for the routes nearby. You can also walk to Littlecote Roman Villa, and the Ramsbury Estate Brewery, Distillery and Oil Press, two miles from the pub, are open to visitors.
