1 / 8The Plough Inn
Hathersage, Derbyshire
Yes. Dogs can stay overnight.
A family-owned 16th century inn on the banks of the River Derwent near Hathersage, where dogs can stay, with shepherd huts, log burners and walks from the door.
The Plough Inn has been welcoming travellers since the 16th century, a family-owned freehouse on the banks of the River Derwent just outside Hathersage, inside the Peak District National Park. There are walks literally on the doorstep, and from this dog friendly inn you can step straight out onto the paths.
Dogs can stay overnight at The Plough, which has seven stylish en suite rooms and three luxury shepherd huts. The huts are made for two, each with a cosy log burner, a fully plumbed shower and a private toilet, and the morning brings a home-cooked full English or Continental breakfast. The Plough doesn't state which rooms or huts take dogs, or the number allowed, so cover both when you book.
From bar snacks to three-course meals, the chefs cook everything fresh to order using local produce, and the bar keeps local ales, European lagers and old and new world wines. The Plough's pages don't mention dogs in the bar or the restaurant at all, so if you'd like yours with you at dinner, check when booking a table.
Six acres of flat, well kept grounds run along the banks of the Derwent, used for weddings and events, and Chatsworth and Haddon Hall are a short drive away. The inn's Hathersage stepping stones walk, 5 miles long, can start and finish at The Plough, and Padley Gorge and Longshaw Estate, among Wildpack's dog walks, is 1 mile away.
