Walking your dog in Ilkley

We’re a countryside Inn on the edge of a small (& perfectly formed) town, which kind of gives us the best of both worlds when it comes to town & country dog walks around Ilkley.  Enjoy a stroll with your four legged friend through the Riverside Gardens, or strike out for the hills and spend a few hours rambling around the iconic Cow & Calf up on Ilkley Moor. 

If any of that sounds tempting, then why not have a think about visiting us.

Seasonal dog walking tips

Whenever you are planning to walk, there are a few tips you should follow to make sure every adventure is a happy one. On shorter, darker days; Invest in some high viz for you and your dog and carry a dedicated torch.

When the days eventually get brighter and warmer, replace the high viz and torch with sunscreen and water (for you and the dog). Then, whenever you go remember that having a charged phone is a modern day essential, as is keeping your pooch on a lead, especially in open countryside.

Enjoy the walk and we’ll look forward to hearing all about it when you get back.
