The White Hart Inn, Hawes

Hawes, North Yorkshire

Yes. Dogs can stay in most rooms.

A 16th century former coaching inn on the Pennine Way in Hawes, where dogs settle in the bar by the open fire, with treats and water bowls.

The White Hart Inn is a 16th century former coaching inn in the old market town of Hawes in Upper Wensleydale, directly on the Pennine Way. That makes it a dog friendly inn built around walking: the trail is at the door, and the dog is welcome back in the bar, in most of the bedrooms and in a designated part of the dining space.

Only Room 2, the Large Double, is kept dog free; the other rooms take dogs. Rooms 3 and 4 face the front and overlook the old cobbled street and St Margaret's Church, while Room 1 at the rear has views of Stags Fell rising above the rooftops and a step-free walk-in shower. Pick the dog as an add-on as you book the room. Its pages don't say whether the inn takes more than one dog or lets a dog be left alone in its room, so ring ahead.

The bar is the heart of it for dogs: a traditional cosy bar with an open fire and several local cask ales, where complimentary dog treats and water bowls are kept. A designated part of the dining space is open to dogs as well. The kitchen sends out refined British dishes, often with a modern presentation, from local farms and suppliers wherever possible. The restaurant, set over three areas, is often fully booked at weekends and in the evenings, so mention a table when you book your room.

Breakfast is included, with hot and cold choices to start a day in the Dales, and the rooms have quality beds and modern en-suite facilities. The dog's first walk can be a short one: Hawes to Hardraw Force is a Wildpack walk just 0.1 miles from the inn.
