When you want some escapism, a romantic getaway or to see new surroundings, the sticking point is often the dog. Do you ring the kennels, find a house sitter or a dog-friendly hotel? Finding good quality hotels allowing dogs isn’t always as simple as it sounds.
Hotels do have to strike a balance; some guests have pet allergies and need to know whether dogs have slept in the same room before, although thorough cleaning practices will lift all traces of most pet allergens.
Holdsworth House for dogs and their well-behaved owners
Four-legged guests are welcomed at Holdsworth House with a tasty chew, water bowl to use in the room, poop bags and a leaflet listing nearby parks to stretch legs and chase balls, although they might need a bit of help reading it!
Dogs are permitted in certain lovely bedrooms (all well-decorated, clean, bright and airy) as well as the lounge, hall and bar. Only the restaurant rooms are off-limits, except for guide dogs. We provide a dog blanket and a cage – for those used to sleeping in one – in case you don’t want to trail your own from home. In fact that’s just one of the perks of bringing your dog to Holdsworth House on a short break.There are spacious grounds for fresh air and a host of dog-loving team members who might want to take your pooch’s picture to add to our Facebook gallery.
So if you’re wanting a short break, head to Yorkshire and Holdsworth House and look forward to a break with all the family.
