Known as the unofficial capital of Yorkshire, the city of Leeds is nestled at the foothills of the Pennines and is a brilliantly dog-friendly city destination. With loads of long walks, sprawling green parks and a surprising number of dog-friendly eateries, Leeds is perfect for a city trip. Brimming with culture, this place has a web of street art to explore, outstanding art galleries and a thriving independent food scene.
At Dog Friendly Cottages, we specialise in dog-friendly cottages in Leeds and across the UK. We have clean, modern dog-friendly city hotels with all the amenities, or perhaps a period hotel with a red-brick exterior with that old-world charm is preferable.
Roundhouse Park comes highly recommended, with its luscious Waterloo Lake and the nearby popular Stew & Oyster restaurant at Oaktree, happy to welcome dogs. Golden Acre Park is worth exploring, as is Otley Chevin Forest Park with its woodlands and open spaces and lots of dog-friendly trails. Follow it up with a doggy-friendly carvery at the Yew Tree Inn! Well worth a visit, this charming and cosy pub donates the money from their regular Sunday carvery to a local animal shelter. Book Leeds now for a memorable city break with your furry friend.
