An estate pub on Yarwell Drive on the south side of Maltby, describing itself on its own site as a welcoming, family and dog-friendly pub, with a garden and outside seating, a pool table and darts, and sport on several screens. Food runs from noon most days, burgers and pizzas and a Sunday roast, and the site sets no rooms aside as closed to dogs. It is the nearest pub to the Maltby Beck valley and the woods that run down to Roche Abbey, which is the walk most people here are coming back from. The garden is the easier option on a sport night, when the inside gets loud.
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.
Seven hectares of limestone common on the south-east edge of Maltby, held by Yorkshire Wildlife Trust and carrying three different grassland types on the same site — calcareous, acid and neutral — with fen meadow in the wet hollows. Over four hundred insect species have been recorded here, and grass-of-Parnassus and common spotted orchid flower from June. A footpath links the Low Common to the adjoining Far Common, which makes a circular walk of about two miles, and Maltby Wood just over the railway line is full of woodland flowers in spring if you want to extend it. The paths are flat but genuinely waterlogged for much of the year and are no use for a wheelchair or a pushchair.
Pathfinders is a pub in Maltby, Maltby. It is listed here so you know it is there, but we have not yet established whether dogs are welcome — so there is no verdict on this page and no stamp. If it is your business, claim the page and tell us, and we will stamp it.
The ruins of a Cistercian abbey in a narrow limestone valley below Maltby, with the transept walls still standing to full height and Maltby Beck running through the middle of the site past a set of small waterfalls. English Heritage lists it among its dog-friendly places and entry is free, which makes it an unusually good stop with a dog for an abbey of this rank. The grounds are grass and gravel and mostly level once you are down in the valley, and the walk in from the free car park is about 250 metres on a rough path. Capability Brown landscaped the valley in the 1770s, which is why the ruins sit in mown lawn rather than rubble.
Nobody has written one for The Hay Nook. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
