Fownhope, Herefordshire, County of
Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.
A 500-year-old timber-framed inn in Fownhope on the River Wye, where dogs may join you in the bar and the welcome mentions treats and a comfy bed.
The Green Man Inn began life around 1485 as The Naked Boy, a humble alehouse for villagers and passing travellers, and over the centuries its timber frame and grand inglenook fireplaces made it a familiar refuge, one that even hosted magistrates during the Civil War. Today the Grade II listed building at the heart of Fownhope is a dog friendly inn with seventeen boutique rooms, two refined dining spaces and a relaxed, rustic bar.
Selected rooms take dogs, so call the inn directly or leave a note on your reservation to have one kept for you, and the same call or note will sort out dog friendly seating for meals. The inn's welcome for dogs mentions treats and a comfy bed. Premium linens, soft pillows and H2K of Harrogate botanicals see to your own comfort, with premium teas and coffee and luxury biscuits in the room.
Dogs are welcome in the bar, a busy, sociable room made for a bite and a drink. Food leans on locally sourced ingredients and Modern British inspiration, so expect homemade pies, slow-braised beef or a pear and red onion tarte tatin, and a Sunday menu built around the roast with crisp potatoes and Yorkshire puddings. Candlelit tables in the restaurant set a more formal scene for celebrations.
A peaceful garden completes the picture, quiet and understated, and Hereford, with its cathedral spires and medieval timbered streets, is nearby. Haugh Wood, one of Wildpack's walks, is the one to know with a dog, 1.6 miles from the inn.
