Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms, up to 2 dogs per room.
A boutique hotel of 1891 at the foot of Glen Lyon, with dog friendly rooms, no charge for dogs and The Ewe pub to take them into.
Founded in 1891 at the foot of Glen Lyon, The Fortingall is a boutique hotel on an estate of 7,000 acres and six miles of river, reimagined with handmade furniture, curated art and antiques. This is a dog friendly hotel keeping a set of rooms for dogs.
Dogs go in those rooms, two per bedroom at most, and there is no charge for them. They are not permitted on beds or furniture, so bring a dog bed with you, and the hotel will charge for any damage or stains. Booking runs through the website with a note in the Additional Information box that a dog is coming; if the booking cannot be accommodated, the hotel is in touch within one working day.
Dogs are permitted in The Ewe pub, a gathering place for locals and outdoor adventurers with hearty lunches, comforting suppers and a fine selection of local ales and whiskies. They are not allowed in the drawing room. The hotel doesn't say whether the dog can be at your table in The Ewe, so put it to them before you book. The kitchen's menus lean on local produce, venison and lamb from the estate included.
Charlie's Bar, named after the Bonnie Prince, carries an extensive list of single malts and signature cocktails, and afternoon tea with champagne is a daily fixture. The estate runs to salmon and trout fishing, wild swimming, clay pigeon shooting, a guided hike and five electric mountain bikes, and The Fortingall Yew stands next to the hotel, with an estimated age of 5,000 years. For the dog, The Ewe is the place to head at the end of a day out.
