A family-run pub and hotel on the cobbled market square in the middle of Grassington. Dogs are welcome in the pub itself and there is a doggy dinner on the menu for them; four of the eight bedrooms are dog-friendly, so ask when booking. Handy for Grass Wood and the riverside path to Linton Falls.
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 independent coffee house in the middle of Grassington doing breakfasts, proper hot drinks and cakes. Listed by the regional tourist board as a dog-friendly cafe, so dogs may come in with you rather than waiting outside. A useful first stop before the walk down to the river.
One of the largest broadleaved woodlands in the Dales, an ash wood on limestone terraces a mile up the lane from Grassington. Dogs are welcome but must be on a lead throughout this Yorkshire Wildlife Trust reserve, which shelters rare woodland flowers. Public footpaths and a well-surfaced access track, though steep and rocky in places and slippery when wet.
Six and a half miles and about three hours, down the Dales Way beside the Wharfe past Linton Falls and the 1885 Hebden suspension bridge to Burnsall, returning on the far bank and the lane through Hebden village. The going is easy riverside meadow with a few short pulls, though it floods in winter; start from the National Park Centre car park in Grassington, where the Dales Bus from Ilkley and Skipton stops. Sheep graze almost every field and there are stone stiles and step stiles the length of the route, most with a dog hole but a few without; the Wharfe gives shallow gravel entries near Burnsall for a swim, but Loup Scar is a rock gorge with a deep fast channel and no way out.
Nobody has written one for The Devonshire. 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.
