Dogs running - Gidleigh Park

Dog-Friendly Hotel in Dartmoor

Where tails wag freely. For early morning walks around the grounds and back in time for breakfast to day-long escapades over the hill to the moors. Adventures shared are adventures remembered, especially with your four-pawed friend. Gidleigh Park is a dog-lovers paradise, with walks that span to the horizon and beyond, plus a dog bed and water bowl for all our visiting furry friends.

 

Looking to explore further afield? Our heated kennels ensure a cosy and comfortable stay for your dog.

 

Come the end of the day, enjoy the comfort and convenience of our dog-friendly rooms, and the freedom to relax together in a beautiful space, awaiting tomorrow’s discoveries.

Dog Policy

We have beautiful grounds and local walks for you and your dog to enjoy, they unfortunately can’t have full hotel access to public areas, and they won’t be able to join you in the main house.

 

We request that dogs be kept on a lead when in public spaces and that you utilise the dog bins provided when required. We ask that if you leave your dog in your room unattended (only for a little while please) you advise reception so that if our team need to service your room or make deliveries, they are aware. Unfortunately we don’t have appropriate facilities for giant breeds.

 

Please call us to make arrangements if you wish to book a room that accommodates you and your dog. There is a £20 per dog, per night charge which includes a dog bed and water bowl. Guide dogs and accredited assistance dogs are welcome throughout our hotel.

Walking

It's no coincidence that at Gidleigh Park we offer a boot room for guest use, wellingtons and stout walking boots are almost compulsory attire for many of our guests. Dogs love our extensive grounds and the wonderful landscapes beyond. 

 

Dartmoor is a paradise for walkers and dogs alike, offering a huge variety of trails that cater to all abilities, and discovering this magical landscape on foot with your four-legged friends affords the opportunity to observe the wildlife and natural vegetation that are at home here.
