Woodland Lodge rooms only, with the main castle, lounge, brasserie and reception all dog free.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
GBP 30, Per dog per night
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
The property.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs stay in the Woodland Lodge and Woodland Lodge Superior rooms, not in the main castle. The lounge, the brasserie, Sandemans and the reception are people only. Dogs are welcome on the downstairs outside terrace and in the dining pods, which have to be booked ahead and carry a fee. Two dogs per room is the maximum without a conversation. The hotel does not recommend leaving a dog alone in the room.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
