Thatched Palmers inn sitting right on West Bay beach, the oldest building on the harbour and the one used as the Broadchurch hotel. Dog friendly according to the brewery, with outside dining, sea views and bedrooms. You can walk out of the door onto the shingle.
These are the parts only the business can add. We check the dog policy and stamp the date — photos, prices and their own words are theirs to put in, and this listing is waiting for them.
The fire, the snug, the water bowl by the door.
A few dishes and what they cost, so people arrive knowing.
Can the dog actually sleep here, and what does it cost.
Which rooms, which times, whether the whippet gets a biscuit.
Claiming fills every box above, and lets you reply to reviews when they open. £15 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Harbourside Palmers pub on George Street, a few yards from the fishing boats and the fish stalls. The brewery lists it as dog friendly with a beer garden, sea views and accommodation. Handy for the harbour, where dogs are allowed on a lead through the summer even when the beaches close.
Wood-fired pizza and seafood in the old watch house on West Bay's harbour arm, with tables looking out at the boats. Dogs are welcome and the kitchen bakes its own dog biscuits in the micro bakery next door. Busy in season, so expect to queue.
Palmers pub set back from the harbour with the East Cliff sandstone as a backdrop, familiar to anyone who has watched Broadchurch. Listed by the brewery as dog friendly, with a beer garden, skittle alley and rooms upstairs. Good landing point after the cliff path from Eype.
Nobody has written one for Bridport Arms Hotel. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
One short email when we add places or a council changes its beach rules. No noise, easy out.
