A coaching inn on Main Street dating to 1625, now a Robinsons house at the centre of High Bentham. The brewery lists the pub as dog friendly alongside its beer garden, food, wifi and accommodation, and it flags the walking on the doorstep: the River Wenning path and the Bentham to Low Bentham circuit both start within a few minutes of the door. Live music on the last Friday of the month and sport on the screens, so a nervous dog may prefer a quieter afternoon slot.
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.
A five mile round of about three hours through the valley of the River Wenning between High and Low Bentham, with the Forest of Bowland fells filling the view to the south and the Dales hills to the north. The going is a mixture of roads, tracks and field paths with stiles, gates and cattle grids, and the low ground by the river holds mud and standing water for days after rain. Riverside Caravan Park, who publish the route, are clear that livestock including cattle will be met along the way and that dogs should be kept under close control, ideally on a lead. Start either from the middle of High Bentham or from the old church by the entrance to the caravan park.
A touring, camping and holiday home park on the bank of the River Wenning at the bottom edge of High Bentham, with fifty-nine level pitches, an award-winning toilet block and fishing on site. For dogs the practical detail is the dog wash beside the toilet block and the dog walking field, and the town centre is a five minute walk up the hill rather than a drive. Of the three self-catering cottages only Parkside Cottage is described as pet friendly, and that one has an enclosed garden and its own parking; Woodside Cottage and Petite Parkside carry no published pet policy, so ring before booking either of those.
Nobody has written one for The Coach House. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
