Littlebridge House is a place to stay in Saltmarshe. 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.
Littlebridge House is a real stay in Saltmarshe, and it is here so you know it exists. But we have not been able to find a dog policy for it that we would stand behind, so we are not going to guess at one. No verdict, no stamp, no date.
If this is your business, tell us whether dogs are welcome and we will put a stamp on it — free, and it stays free. Claim this page.
If you have been and you know the answer, tell us and we will go and confirm it.
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.

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 nineteenth-century stately home in mature parkland at Saltmarshe, three miles west of Howden and a field away from the tidal Ouse, run as a country house hotel with a walled kitchen garden, a library and its own converted stable house and cottage. The hall's own Facebook page states that it has three dog friendly bedrooms within the house, along with the Cottage, which is also dog friendly, so the dog-suitable stock is small and worth booking well ahead. The suites in the main body of the house are not among them. The grounds are lawn, woodland and walled garden with no through road, and Saltmarshe station on the Hull to Doncaster line is a five-minute walk for anyone arriving without a car. This is the hall's own social media rather than a policy page on its website.
The tidal Ouse at Saltmarshe swings round a long bend below the hall's parkland, and at low water the bank drops onto a strand of firm sand and shell with mudflat and saltmarsh either side of it. Access is on foot from Saltmarshe station or from the lane past the hall, out to the top of the flood bank; there is no promenade, no slipway and no facilities of any kind. Nothing here is closed to dogs at any time of year, because the East Riding seasonal beach ban reaches only Bridlington, Hornsea and Withernsea. The flood tide comes up this reach fast and pushes a bore-like edge across the flats, and the mud off the sand is soft, so this is a place to stay on the strand and keep the lead handy.
Saltmarshe is barely a village at all, a hall, a church, a row of estate cottages and a request-stop station on the Hull line, and the walk out of it is the emptiest in the patch. From the station the route climbs the Ouse flood bank and follows the long outer curve of the river past the hall's parkland, high enough to see over the whole of Howdenshire, with nothing on the water but the occasional gravel barge running up to Selby. At the far end you drop off the bank into Laxton, a straggle of farms round the old Bricklayers Arms, and come back on the field lane behind Saltmarshe Grange. The bank is grazed for most of its length and the Ouse below it is tidal, deep and utterly unforgiving.
Nobody has written one for Littlebridge House. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
