Stratford-upon-Avon
with your dog.

Stratford-upon-Avon can be a riverside-and-park break with your dog, without depending on access to theatres or historic interiors. The DoubleTree gives you a town base; the Charlecote Pheasant is in a separate village near the National Trust estate. Match the room to your travel plans, then pair a gentle Recreation Ground outing with Charlecote’s permitted dog routes.

A BASE FOR YOUR BREAK

Dog-friendly places to stay in Stratford-upon-Avon

Dog access can depend on the room or accommodation you choose. Confirm the exact dog arrangements before you pay.

DoubleTree publishes £25 per dog per stay, maximum two, with bar dining and a strict no-alone rule. Charlecote Pheasant offers selected dog rooms with a £15 nightly room supplement; confirm the dog limit. The latter is in Charlecote village, so it is a different base from central Stratford.

AN UNHURRIED COUPLE OF DAYS

A short break that leaves room to pause

Day one · riverside Stratford

Check into your confirmed dog room and take a short Recreation Ground walk. At DoubleTree, arrange bar dining and keep your dog with you throughout the evening. If staying at Charlecote, allow for the return journey to the village.

Day two · the permitted estate route

Visit Charlecote Park with your dog on a short lead, keeping to Front Park’s designated routes. Avoid the deer sanctuary areas and choose a shorter circuit if the dog is tired.

A suggested plan, not a booked itinerary. Adapt it to your dog, the weather and current access.

THE DETAILS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Good to know before you go

Town and village are different choices

The Charlecote Pheasant is not a central Stratford hotel. Plan transport before booking.

Historic interiors are separate

This itinerary does not promise pet access to theatres, Shakespeare houses or Charlecote’s house.

Your Stratford-upon-Avon questions

Can I book a DoubleTree dog room online?

The hotel’s dog policy directs pet bookings through its contact centre.

Can dogs walk everywhere at Charlecote Park?

No. Use designated Front Park routes on a short lead; Hill Park and West Park exclude dogs.
