The Castle Inn

Castle Combe, Wiltshire

Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms, up to 1 dog per room.

An inn on the old market square of Castle Combe, cooking a 2 AA Rosette menu, where a dog bed, blanket and bowl wait for your dog.

In the old market square of Castle Combe, a Cotswolds village of honey-coloured stone and dappled ivy with a gentle river running through it, The Castle Inn has been lovingly restored to give guests the trappings of the past with the comfort and quality of the present. This dog friendly inn makes a fine base for you and your dog, with the rolling hills and walking trails of the Cotswolds all around.

There are a couple of dog friendly rooms to choose from, for one dog per stay, and the inn equips yours with a dog bed, blanket and bowl, so contact it directly to check those rooms are free for your dates. The inn's rooms are individually designed and packed with period features. On a dog staying behind by itself while you're out, The Castle Inn doesn't say either way, so ask that too.

The hub of the pub is the bar, with an open fire and a range of local beers, and outside there's a sunny patio and tables at the front for watching village life go by. The inn doesn't state whether dogs may sit with you for lunch or dinner, so ask as you book. The kitchen cooks a 2 AA Rosette menu built on local produce, with a Sunday roast served from midday until the evening and light bites between lunch and dinner.

Breakfast is served every day in the conservatory before you set out. The Manor House estate next door adds The Loft gym, a tennis court and an 18 hole championship golf course, and when the dog needs a walk, Castle Combe and By Brook Circular, one of Wildpack's walks, is just 0.4 miles away.
