The Borough Lancaster

Lancaster, Lancashire

Yes. Dogs can stay in all rooms.

A Georgian town house on Dalton Square in the centre of Lancaster, with 14 en suite bedrooms that all welcome dogs and food served all day.

On Dalton Square, in the centre of historic Lancaster, The Borough is a pub, restaurant and hotel spread over three floors of a Georgian town house. It is a dog friendly inn in the middle of the city, and every one of its 14 en suite bedrooms takes dogs, so a city break with yours involves no hunting for the right room.

With every bedroom open to dogs, the choice comes down to the room itself. Room 4, at the front, looks over Dalton Square, while Room 9, at the back, has a view of the Ashton Memorial and Lancaster Cathedral. The rooms are contemporary, each with a smart TV and an en suite wet room tiled in Italian marble. How many dogs a room can take, and whether a dog may be left alone in it, The Borough doesn't say; ask when you book.

The Borough's pages don't say where dogs can sit while you eat, so check that when you book a table. Food is served all day, every day, in the dining room, the pub and the courtyard garden, from pub classics to specials and desserts. The eggs are free range, and the chicken, beef, pork and lamb come from local farms in the surrounding hills and valleys. Book directly and a full Lancashire breakfast is included.

Room 5 is one of two with a free standing bath as well as a separate shower, if a long soak is the plan. Your dog's nearest walk on Wildpack's map is Williamson Park and the Ashton Memorial, 0.7 miles away, the same memorial Room 9 looks towards, and Morecambe North (Happy Mount Area), the dog friendly beach closest to the inn on our map, is 2.8 miles off.
