Dog Days AwayGOOD DAYS. TOGETHER.Leicestershire · England · Town
Market Harborough suits a modest town break with two distinct outdoor options: Welland Park close to the town and a separate trip to Foxton Locks. The Three Swans offers selected ground-floor dog rooms, while Travelodge provides a simpler room base with its chain-wide pet-extra arrangement. Neither choice removes the need to plan meals with your dog, especially where a dining room excludes pets.
Policies researched 27 September 2026 · Check directly before booking
A BASE FOR YOUR BREAK
A dog-friendly hotel may only allow dogs in certain rooms. Arrange the right room directly before you pay.
The Three Swans lists £15 per room per night for up to two dogs, with small-dog and selected-room restrictions in its guest information. Travelodge allows up to two pets with a paid pet extra charged per pet per booking, amount to confirm. Choose on room needs and the meal plan rather than assuming either permits dogs throughout its dining spaces.

GOOD DAYS OUT, TOGETHER
Use the park’s dedicated dog-walk area for an easy-to-shorten town outing. The council visitor page explains entrances and parking.
Keep your dog controlled and follow signs around play and sports facilities. Check the car-park waiting limit; a café on site does not establish indoor pet access.
Official visitor information ↗Make a separate trip to see the lock staircase and choose a short towpath section. There is uneven ground and a steep incline to the top lock area, so decide how much to cover.
Keep dogs on a short lead around locks and bridges, give boat crews room and keep them out of canal water. Check parking hours and pay-on-exit arrangements.
Official visitor information ↗AN UNHURRIED COUPLE OF DAYS
Settle into the reserved dog room and take a short Welland Park outing. Arrange dinner in a dog-permitted space before the evening; the Three Swans’ Eatery exclusion and Travelodge’s unattended-pet rule both matter to that plan.
Travel to Foxton and choose a modest section that suits the gradients and your dog. Keep well clear of working lock equipment and busy bridges. Return to the car within its opening hours, then head home without adding a long canal hike just to fill the day.
A suggested plan, not a booked itinerary. Adapt it to your dog, the weather and current access.

No. Its policy prohibits leaving pets unattended in rooms or public areas.
No. The operator describes uneven ground and a steep incline to the top lock area; choose a shorter section if needed.
