Four legs and fur? They’re just as welcome as their owners. The choice of dog-friendly accommodations in the Lake District, Cumbria is second to none, we really are the canine capital of the country – from small, family-owned guesthouses to modern hotels. What they all have in common is their ability to cater for man’s best friend: the range of pawsome doggy extras range from towels for muddy paws after a day out of the fells, bowls and treats to dog beds and even doggie dining rooms. Some accommodation even offer dog-sitting if you want some dog-free dining at your favourite restaurant. Speaking of which, don't forget to check out our list of dog-friendly places to eat.
