The Star is a pub in Harbottle. 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.

We have not checked this one yet

The Star is a real pub in Harbottle, 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.

More from the owner

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.

Is this your pub?

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.

Harbottle Crags and the castle

90%OFF-ROAD
Off-lead allowed Livestock — leads on

Four and a half miles and 160 metres of climbing in a little over two hours, taking in the Drake Stone, Harbottle Lake, the open crags above and the earthworks of the Norman castle on the way back into the village. Start at the free West Wood car park at the west end of Harbottle, about 15 spaces, with the walk finishing along the Coquet edge of the village. Forest track for the first mile is safe off the lead and the Coquet at the end gives a swim, but the crags are a grazed nature reserve with ground-nesting birds where leads are asked for from March to July, the lake bog is dangerously deep, and the castle mound has sudden drops.

88%OFF-ROAD
Off-lead allowed

Three and a half miles in an hour and three quarters on the flat, from the hamlet of Holystone to the stone-lined spring the National Trust keeps as the Lady’s Well and round the oak and juniper of Holystone North Wood. Start at the small free car park in Holystone, two miles east of Harbottle, which holds a dozen cars and is signposted from the village lane. Woodland tracks make good off-lead walking with the Holystone Burn for water, but the Well itself is a walled enclosure that dogs should stay out of, and the wood is a nature reserve where the juniper and the ground flora do better for a dog kept to the path.

Lady's Well, Holystone

No reviews yet

A walled spring pool in a stand of trees outside Holystone, said to have served as a baptismal site and now a strangely quiet place with a stone cross standing in the water. Five minutes from the road, on a short lane from the village. Leads on: the surrounding fields are grazed and the national park asks for dogs under control throughout.
