A Victorian hall in twelve acres of its own grounds off Kenwood Road in Nether Edge, with a lake, woodland paths and lawns, ten minutes from the city centre and twenty from the Porter Valley. A set number of bedrooms are designated dog friendly and come with a bed, towels, a water bowl and treats waiting on arrival, and reception keeps a pit stop stocked with treats, water and poo bags. Dogs may go in the bar, on the alfresco terrace and anywhere in the grounds, but not in the Gallery Restaurant, so breakfast and dinner with the dog means eating in the bar. The hotel warns that some of the paths through the grounds are uneven and asks that dogs are kept away from the lake and the ducks.
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 rooms that take dogs, and where they sleep.
Can the dog actually sleep here, and what does it cost.
What a night actually costs, so nobody has to ring to find out.
How many dog-friendly rooms, whether they are ground floor, where the dog sleeps.
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.
The largest ancient semi-natural woodland in South Yorkshire, dominated by oak and birch, with more than fifteen kilometres of public footpaths and no admission charge at any hour. The Woodland Discovery Centre off Abbey Lane has toilets in the car park as well as inside, and the Woodland Coffee Stop does hot drinks and light lunches; the Abbeydale Miniature Railway runs in the same clearing. This is council land, so the city's Responsible Dog Walking Code of Conduct applies rather than any order: dogs in sight and under control, on a lead if recall is unreliable, short leads from March to August on ecologically sensitive ground, and out of the streams. The paths are wide and well used, and the woods drain reasonably well but the lower sections by the Limb Brook stay muddy through winter.
Sheffield's largest park at over two hundred acres, spread across the ridge between Norton Lees and Woodseats, and unusual for a city park in being mostly grazing pasture and woodland rather than mown grass. Streams run through the bottom of the valleys and there are ponds near the Cobnar Road end. Graves Park Animal Farm sits in the middle of it with rare breed cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry in fenced paddocks, and the council's own dog code asks you to avoid disturbing grazing animals and give them space, which here means a lead anywhere near the farm fields. Paths are a mix of tarmac and dirt and there is a cafe, toilets and free parking at several entrances.
A converted grammar school on Leopold Square in the middle of Sheffield, five minutes from the station and the tram, and the only central hotel here with a published dog policy. The pet-friendly rooms are all on the lower ground floor with a door straight out to the courtyard, which matters at six in the morning in a city-centre hotel. Each dog stay includes a bed with washable covers, food and water bowls, treats, a toy and poo bags. Dogs are barred from the breakfast room, so breakfast is either in the bedroom or in the ground floor bar, and the hotel asks that dogs are on a lead anywhere in the public parts of the building and not left alone in the room for long.
Nobody has written one for Mercure Sheffield Kenwood Hall Hotel and Spa. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
