Book now with Booking.com

Once a 16th-century townhouse, The Close Hotel is now a country hotel with a character all of its own, tucked away from the bustle of Tetbury's high street. From one of its large windows you can people-watch over the town's historic market square. Dogs are a real part of the welcome at this dog friendly hotel: the team loves having them, and keeps a selection of specially allocated rooms so you and your dog can stay comfortably.

Tell the hotel in advance that a dog is joining you, and a suitable room will be ready to welcome you both. The dog charge includes a dog bed, a bowl and a breakfast treat. The house rules ask that dogs are kept under control in the hotel and garden, that you're mindful of other guests and that you clean up after your dog. The dog policy does not state a limit on numbers per room, so ask about that before booking.

The bar welcomes dogs too: it is a room full of character and charm for morning coffee and the papers or a pre-dinner cocktail. Its all-day menu has something for every craving, and the kitchen works with fresh produce from local suppliers, from pub classics to chef's specials. The main restaurant is off limits to dogs, and on where they can sit with you to eat the hotel's pages don't say more, so check before you sit down.

Afternoon tea is served in the garden, which you reach through an arched stone gate: a quintessentially English private garden framed by historic stone buildings and filled with fragrant lavender and colourful blooms, and your dog is welcome out there too. The 19 bedrooms are individually styled, with Molton Brown toiletries, and the deluxe doubles look over the garden.
