Sheepdip Cottage is a real stay in Egton Bridge, 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. Tell us your dog policy. Want the whole page — photos, prices, your own words? Claim this listing.
If you have been and you know the answer, tell us and we will go and confirm it.
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.
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.

A 4.6-mile circular of about two hours on the old private toll road that runs beside the Esk from Egton Bridge to Grosmont, out past Barnards Road toll cottage and back by field paths above the river; easy underfoot with one modest pull. Start at Egton Bridge station on the Esk Valley line, or park considerately in the village near the Postgate Inn and the stepping stones. The toll road is broad, gated and sees only the occasional car, so it suits a dog off the lead, but the return crosses grazed fields with gates and the Esk is deep and quick in the pools by the stepping stones.
Six and a quarter miles with 210 metres of ascent and around three hours, following the Esk west on the old toll road to the seventeenth-century packhorse arch of Beggar's Bridge and returning by the woods and the little mortuary chapel above the village; the toll road is surfaced and level, the woodland return is steep, rooty and slippery. It starts at Egton Bridge by St Hedda's church, with a small free car park and Egton Bridge station on the Esk Valley line a hundred yards away, and the famous gooseberry show fills the village on the first Tuesday in August. The Esk is deep, clean and reachable in a dozen places for a proper swim, the toll road is traffic-free and safe, but there are stepping stones across the river that a nervous dog will refuse and the riverside meadows are grazed by sheep.
Nobody has written one for Sheepdip Cottage. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
