Hotels Do not come much better than this
I felt I had to contact you to let you know about an hotel I had the good fortune to find on your site Pet friendly rentals & Pet Holiday Finder
I have two lively pointers so finding good accommodation in a hotel who take my dogs on `sufferance` just to get my business is difficult. We usually Holiday in the Lake District so we can take advantage of the walking but, this year we travelled an hour further and tried South West Scotland. What abeautiful area. Mostly undiscovered and with the best and safest dog walking I have ever come across. We picked a central location - NewGalloway - so we could drive out in all directions and stayed at The CrossKeys Hotel which is right at the top of Loch Ken We, and our dogs loved it. The rooms were good, the food was excellent and the barwas well stocked with many Malts. The dogs were welcomed all over the hotel except the restaurant in the evenings but stayed with us when we ate in the`snug` area of the bar. They loved this especially lying full stretch infront of the log fire in the evenings. There was a black Labrador staying at the same time as us and the Hotel owner, has a very friendly terrier - Oscar - they all socialised well - just a bit of shoving when it came to the time for their `bar snacks`.
Dog towels are supplied as well as doggie treats in the rooms and the hospitality extended to us was extended equally to the dogs.
This is such a genuinely dog friendly hotel - but kept immaculate - and in the most beautiful area, that I definitely think my days of visiting the Lake District is over!!
