The Longlands Inn and Restaurant

Carnforth, Lancashire

Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms.

A family-run country inn beside the Lancaster Canal at Tewitfield, where dogs are welcome in the bar area and in some rooms and cottages.

Level canalside walking is close to the door of The Longlands Inn and Restaurant, a family-run country inn beside the Lancaster Canal and Tewitfield Marina, on the Lancashire and Cumbria border. Dogs and their well-behaved owners are welcome, and this dog friendly inn has its own illustrated guided walks, with leaflets to pick up at the bar.

Dogs can stay in some of the 11 bedrooms and some of the six stone-built self-catering cottages, and for them the inn provides a bed, bowls, towels, treats and a walking map. The inn doesn't mention a dog limit per room, or if a dog may be left alone there, so ask the reservations team, who can also arrange dinner and any special treats for your stay.

You can eat in the Coach House Bar, the inn's dog friendly bar, and in the bar area dogs can relax by the fire while you enjoy your food and drink, with treats and water bowls to hand. The kitchen sources as locally as it can, with juicy steaks, fresh fish and vegetarian and vegan dishes, the stonebaked pizzas are a popular order, and the bar keeps local hand-pulled ales.

The bedrooms come with luxury mattresses, and the cottages, right next to Tewitfield Locks, have an open plan kitchen and living space downstairs. Beyond the canal bank, your dog has Wildpack's Leighton Moss RSPB Circular Walk 2.7 miles away and Arnside Knott Circular 4.6 miles.
