A stone hall on Mortimer Road on the southern edge of Penistone, run as a free house with a restaurant in the old conservatory and a public bar at the main entrance. Its own site is specific about where the dog goes: the main entrance public bar, not the restaurant. There is a large car park and grounds, and it sits close to the Penistone end of the Trans Pennine Trail, so it works as the finish of a walk in from Oxspring. It also has bedrooms, but the site says nothing about dogs in them, so ring before you book.
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 small community green at Springvale on the eastern side of Penistone, with a refurbished play area, picnic space and a mown path round the grass. Barnsley Council upgraded it under its Love Where You Live programme along with the other Penistone ward greens. It is a five-minute circuit, useful because it sits between the Springvale housing and the Trans Pennine Trail, which you can join a few hundred yards south for the walk to Oxspring. It is a local green, not a country walk.
Penistone's own park at Bridge End, immediately behind Tesco on Back Lane and next to the Trans Pennine Trail car park and the skate park. It is a short flat circuit of mown grass, pitches and boundary trees rather than a walk in its own right, but it is the obvious warm-up or wind-down at either end of the Trail, and it is the only lit green space in the town centre. The leisure centre and the showground are a few minutes north-west up Thurlstone Road. Everything longer starts from the same car park.
A two-mile perimeter circuit of a small Yorkshire Water reservoir just north of Penistone, reached off the A629 Huddersfield Road by the Barnsley Trout Club. Most of it is a well-made surfaced path, which makes it one of the few reservoir rounds in this corner of the borough that stays walkable in bad weather; only the last stretch at the shallow north-western head turns rough and wet. There are steps on the circuit, and Yorkshire Water signs a moderately steep ramp as the way round them. The car park is small and there is a picnic area at the dam end.
Nobody has written one for Cubley Hall. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
