Did somebody say Din Dins? We love our dogs so much in the Lake District and Cumbria that we like to take them out for dinner. Four-legged diners and drinkers are welcome in many of the county’s pubs and restaurants, which will make sure that they’re as comfortable as their owners – some even offer dog bowls and doggie treats!
Check out the list below and don't forget our free 'Dog's Love Cumbria' guide, packed with information on dog-friendly places to go.
