The White Horse, Brancaster, Norfolk
The White Horse hotel is located on the coast of north Norfolk, next to miles of sandy beaches--ideal for guests who love to walk, bird-watch or want to bring their dog. This dog-friendly hotel has 15 guest rooms, eight of which are ground-floor rooms that are fully welcoming to dogs and their owners. All rooms are decorated in a modern style and have en-suite bathrooms, TV and in-room Internet access. Breakfast is served at the bar from 9 to 11 a.m., with lunch and dinner in the conservatory restaurant overlooking the Norfolk Coastal Path and the coastal marshlands. There's a small nightly fee for your dog, but it can sleep in the bedroom with you, so it's well worth the price, and with miles of beaches for its daily walks, it'll probably thank you, too.
