Dogs
We are a dog friendly establishment. Please let us know prior to booking, so we can ensure there is a suitable room available. There are a few rules for dogs: they are not permitted to sleep on beds (so please bring a dog bed/blanket for them), and they are not permitted to be left alone in the rooms at any time. They must also be kept on a lead when going in and out of the house because we have two family cats that, while not allowed in the main house, occasionally manage to escape. Also dogs are not allowed in the dining room during breakfast times.
