The Brackenrigg Inn

Every room takes a dog, and the pub actively wants them in

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
A Cumbrian pub with rooms above Ullswater, reopened in 2024 and run by the same team as Another Place down the road. Rooms range from singles to a two-bedroom suite and all of them are dog friendly, which is unusual anywhere. Food is local, there are open fires, and walkers turn up in boots. It suits people who want fell days and a proper pub rather than a spa.

Why it's in the collection

Lakeside trails start at the door and the Ullswater Way passes below, with the Ullswater Steamers pier at Howtown reachable on foot for a boat back. Dogs travel on the steamers for GBP 1.50.

Best suited for

All the rooms take dogs, so there is no dog-room category to get shut out of.

The open question

Every bedroom is dog friendly, from the single up to the two-bedroom suite. Dogs are welcome in the pub itself, where guests eat. The cooked breakfast is served to residents each morning.

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