The Links Country Park Hotel

Cromer, Norfolk

Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms, up to 2 dogs per room.

A traditional country hotel on the common at West Runton near Cromer, where dogs stay in the ground floor Garden Rooms and towels are laid on.

The Links Country Park Hotel sits on the common in West Runton, near the seaside town of Cromer, a traditional countryside hotel with its own 9 hole golf course. The sea is what makes this dog friendly hotel worth a look for anyone bringing a dog: it is only 0.6 miles from the hotel to West Runton Beach, which Wildpack maps as the nearest dog friendly beach.

All of the Garden Rooms take dogs, up to two in a room, and dog towels are provided. These rooms sit on the ground floor and lead straight out to a garden area, decorated with a blend of antique and modern furniture and finished with a modern en suite. Rooms for dogs aren't guaranteed, so the hotel asks you to check availability before booking. Its dog page doesn't mention leaving a dog alone in the Garden Rooms, so raise that question at the same time.

Evenings revolve around IN2BLU, the hotel's modern restaurant, open daily with a carvery on Sunday, while afternoon tea is served the British way every afternoon and the Cocktail Bar and Lounge keeps a separate menu. The hotel's pages don't mention dogs in IN2BLU, the Cocktail Bar or the Lounge, so if supper with your dog matters, ask the hotel first.

A stay in one of the dog friendly rooms includes free use of the leisure facilities: an indoor swimming pool, a gym and a tennis court alongside the golf. Felbrigg Hall Estate Circular Walk, on Wildpack's list of walks nearby, is 1.9 miles away, and Sheringham Park Rhododendron Walk makes a second outing with the dog a little further on.
