There’s something special about bringing your dog along on a UK escape, with long walks, pub lunches, and fresh country air all the better with a wagging tail in tow. The Peak District and Lake District offer some of the most stunning scenery in the country, and we’ve rounded up our favourite dog-friendly stays across both regions. Whether you’re planning a walking weekend, a big celebration, or just need a change of scene, these Hidden UK Gems welcome both you and your four-legged friend.
Hawkhow, Lake District
With sweeping views over Ullswater and acres of fells to explore right from the door, Hawkhow is a dream base for walkers and their pups. Sleeping 10, it’s perfect for larger groups who want privacy, space, and scenery that you could never tire of.
Hawkhow Cottage, Lake District
The equally beautiful sister property to Hawkhow, Hawkhow Cottage sleeps eight and shares the same outstanding views. Expect cosy interiors, a peaceful location, and endless countryside to roam.
Southview Spa, Windermere
Spa facilities and dog-friendly don’t always go hand in hand, but Southview Spa makes it work beautifully. Sleeping 14 with a chlorine-free pool, hot tub, sauna and cinema room, it’s ideal for a group getaway — with dogs welcome too.
Lowfield House, Little Langdale
With panoramic views, enclosed gardens and direct access to the fells, Lowfield House is as dog-friendly as it gets. Sleeping up to 12 guests, it’s a peaceful retreat with plenty of room for everyone to stretch their legs.
The Mortal Man Inn, Windermere
A classic Lakeland inn with a brilliant beer garden, roaring fires and far-reaching views. Dogs are welcome in all areas, and there’s even a secure field coming soon for them to roam freely.
The Fat Lamb, Kirkby Stephen
Cosy, characterful and full of charm — The Fat Lamb is a firm favourite with walkers and their dogs. There’s even a five-acre private nature reserve to explore and a bar filled with quirky motoring memorabilia.
High Ridge Barn, Peak District
With space for up to four dogs and enclosed gardens, High Ridge Barn goes the extra mile for dog owners — even including a grooming stable with shower and pet hairdryer. The kind of place that thinks of everything.
Windy Harbour, Glossop
If your perfect break involves hearty food, hill walks and homely rooms, Windy Harbour delivers. Dogs are warmly welcomed, and the surrounding moorland offers plenty of off-lead exploring.
1692 Wasdale, Lake District
A luxurious B&B near the Wasdale Valley, 1692 Wasdale offers dog-friendly rooms with jaw-dropping views and peaceful walking routes on the doorstep. After a day out, enjoy the hot tub or wind down by the fire.
