Yorkshire offers a great escape for dog lovers looking for pet-friendly cottages with hot tubs. Your pet will love all the outdoor space here, from the Yorkshire Dales to the North York Moors. Many cottages come with enclosed gardens, giving pets the freedom to play safely while you relax in the hot tub!
Yorkshire is full of dog-friendly attractions, including the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and Whitby Abbey, making it easy to plan a holiday with your pet.
Dining out is also simple with many pet-friendly restaurants and cafes across Yorkshire.

Whether it’s a trip to a historic site like York Minster or a leisurely walk through the countryside, Yorkshire has everything to make your holiday enjoyable.
