A smart country pub in tiny Skipwith, ten miles south of York and a few minutes from Skipwith Common. Dogs are welcome in the bar area and the outdoor spaces after a walk, with water bowls and treats always on hand. The restaurant is the one part of the building they cannot join you in.

THE SMALL PRINTDogs are welcome in the bar area and outdoor spaces only, not in the restaurant.

More from the owner

Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.

Is this your pub?

Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.

Livestock — leads on

One of the last lowland heaths in northern England, criss-crossed by three waymarked trails over old bomber-airfield hardstandings, heather and ponds — the red Bombs and Lizards route is the classic. Dogs must be kept on short leads at all times: Longhorn cattle, Hebridean sheep and Exmoor ponies graze the common and nightjars nest on the ground in summer. Car parks at King Rudding Lane near Riccall, Sandy Lane and Common Road in Skipwith village; parts follow firm wartime tracks.

Nobody has written one for The Drovers Arms. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.

Read by a human before it appears. We never publish your email, and the business can reply underneath but can never take a review down.
