A quiet four-mile circuit around Yorkshire's second-largest natural lake in lonely Raydale, with lake access for a paddle and a return above the tumbling River Bain, England's shortest river. Most fields hold sheep or cattle so dogs should be on a lead, and the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust asks for a short lead at all times within the lakeshore nature reserve to protect wintering and breeding birds. Pay-to-park at the Low Blean shoreside.
One of Yorkshire's oldest inns, a fifteenth-century house overlooking Bainbridge's broad village green in the middle of Wensleydale. Oak beams, open fires, three bars and eleven en-suite rooms, with pets warmly welcomed across many areas of the hotel. Semerwater and the Roman road over Wether Fell start close by.
Five-star boutique hotel with a three-rosette restaurant in a former Victorian schoolhouse by the River Ure. Dogs are accepted in two designated rooms, Kariega and Rangali, which have their own enclosed gardens and hot tubs; only assistance dogs are allowed in the main hotel. Notify the hotel when booking. A luxury option rather than a run-of-the-house dog stay.
