Dog Friendly Hotel in the Cotswolds

At Pettifers Hotel, we believe that your four-legged friends deserve a holiday too. That’s why we’re proud to be one of the most dog-friendly hotels in the Cotswolds, welcoming dogs of all sizes to stay with us. With pet-friendly rooms, relaxed spaces to dine together, and countless countryside walks right on our doorstep, we make sure that both you and your dog enjoy a comfortable, memorable stay.

A Dog-Lover’s Location

We love dogs at Pettifers, and our location makes us the perfect base for adventures with your pet. Explore the beautiful Cotswold Water Park with its dog-friendly beach, or stroll among the stunning seasonal colours at Westonbirt Arboretum, just a short drive away. You’ll also find countless footpaths, village walks, and countryside trails starting right outside the hotel.

For even more inspiration during your stay, the excellent online guide Dog Friendly Cotswolds is a great resource for local walks, attractions, and pet-friendly places to visit.

Dining with Your Dog

Dogs are welcome in designated areas of our lounge, bar, and snug at breakfast and dinner times. Full table service is available here from any of our menus, so you don’t have to dine separately from your pet. The only exception is the Garden Room, where dogs are not permitted.
