 The Wensleydale Hotel

Dog Friendly Hotel in Middleham near Leyburn, North Yorkshire

The Wensleydale Hotel is a charming family run hotel ideally situated in the Market Place of Middleham. All rooms in this grade 2 listed building have been refurbished since the present owners took over in 2019. All are all en suite and full of character, all have showers, some of these are showers over baths.  Every room is different and some feature oak beams, fireplaces and original shutters.

Some rooms overlook the Market Place with Middleham Castle dominating the skyline.  All rooms offer 32” flat screen TV, Egyptian cotton bedsheets, luxury fluffy towels and Temple Spa Toiletries. At least one room per room category is ‘dog friendly’ so be sure to book directly with the hotel to ensure you are allocated these rooms.

The Tack Room Restaurant (sorry no dogs allowed in the resturant) offers pan European cuisine in the evenings drawing on Chef Patron Charles’ experience from all over the world.  House specialties include cured salmon, charcuterie, sour dough, and homebred free range rare breed pork.  Sample menus are available on the website, and there is something for everyone from British Classics like Beef Wellington, to Classic French like Tarte Tatin & Italian dishes such Tuscan Bean Soup.

If you have a particular dietary requirement we will happily make a special menu for you. The emphasis is on quality, and where possible local produce is used including Swinton Estate Grouse, Wensleydale Cheese, & Rhubarb from Middleham!

The hotel bar welcomes with a roaring open fire in the winter, and in the warmer months you can sit on the south facing terrace overlooking the market square and watch the world go by whilst having lunch, coffee & cake or cream tea. The Wensleydale prides itself on friendly & attentive service, and we look forward to welcoming you & your dogs very soon.
