The Old House Inn

Burstow, Surrey

Yes. Dogs can stay overnight.

A traditional country pub with six luxury rooms in Copthorne, where dogs get a bed and a water bowl and dinner together means a table in the bar.

The Old House Inn is a traditional country pub in the West Sussex village of Copthorne, newly refurbished, with six luxury bedrooms in a converted barn called The Coop. The dog friendly inn arrangement here is clear: dogs are warmly welcomed, they get a comfortable bed and a water bowl, and if you want to eat with yours you book a table in the bar.

Those six rooms are named after British chicken breeds, with contemporary furnishings, classic original features, Bramley toiletries and breakfast included in the rate. The inn doesn't state the number of dogs, or the rooms they sleep in, so ask when you book.

Dining with a dog, then, means a table in the bar, where cask ale, craft beer, cider, a long wine list and classic cocktails are the draw. The cooking is contemporary British food, with local ingredients wherever possible, breakfast daily with a hand-crafted Illy coffee, and a Sunday roast made with field-to-fork ingredients, down to a vegan version, with board games alongside. The suppliers get named too, from Walter Rose Butchers to Hobbs House Bakery.

Outside, the beer garden has sunny and shaded spots, lush greenery and comfortable seating for a laidback lunch, and the bedrooms look over the mature garden. Breakfast is served every day, and the inn suggests taking it before your morning walk, which a dog will be ready for.
