Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A country house hotel on the River Wye in Ashford-in-the-Water, a mile or so from Bakewell, with its Rafters restaurant and gardens down to the water. Dogs stay in three ground-floor Garden Rooms with direct access to the gardens. The hotel has set aside a dining room for dogs and their owners. It suits couples who want a proper dinner with the dog and a riverside village on the doorstep.

Dogs stay in the three ground-floor Garden Rooms with direct access to the gardens. A separate dining room is kept for dogs and their owners. Dogs aren't allowed in the main restaurant, but are welcome in the bar and the garden in warmer weather. Keep them on a lead at all times.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
