A long-standing market town local a few doors down Market Street from the Penistone Tap, refurbished in 2011 into a small bar serving a games room with pool and darts and a much roomier lounge behind. The lounge is the part that suits a dog, with space between the tables and a garden to step out to, and it opens from noon every day, which the micropubs up the street do not. It is the closest proper pub to the Trans Pennine Trail crossing and the Penistone Show field. CAMRA's Barnsley branch surveyors record it as dog friendly; the pub publishes no dog policy of its own.
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 stone hall on Mortimer Road on the southern edge of Penistone, run as a free house with a restaurant in the old conservatory and a public bar at the main entrance. Its own site is specific about where the dog goes: the main entrance public bar, not the restaurant. There is a large car park and grounds, and it sits close to the Penistone end of the Trans Pennine Trail, so it works as the finish of a walk in from Oxspring. It also has bedrooms, but the site says nothing about dogs in them, so ring before you book.
A small community green at Springvale on the eastern side of Penistone, with a refurbished play area, picnic space and a mown path round the grass. Barnsley Council upgraded it under its Love Where You Live programme along with the other Penistone ward greens. It is a five-minute circuit, useful because it sits between the Springvale housing and the Trans Pennine Trail, which you can join a few hundred yards south for the walk to Oxspring. It is a local green, not a country walk.
A modern three-storey holiday house on Hartcliffe Hill Road on the moorland edge above Penistone, sleeping eight, with a log burner and a view down to Langsett Reservoir and the Peak District boundary. The road it sits on runs straight out onto Hartcliff Hill and the moorland tracks, and the Trans Pennine Trail through Penistone is about two miles down the hill. The owners' own website says the cottage is pet friendly and invites you to bring your dog along; it does not publish a dog charge or say which rooms are off limits, so confirm at booking.
Nobody has written one for The Spread Eagle. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
