Balmer Lawn holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This hotel offers a decent experience for dog owners, though there are some limitations to be aware of. While dogs are warmly welcomed in the main bar, Lodge Bar, and lounge areas, they are not allowed in the main restaurant due to hygiene regulations. This means you'll need to plan your dining accordingly. The hotel provides a sausage for breakfast for your furry friend, which is a nice touch, but don't expect dog beds or food bowls—bring your own essentials.
The hotel charges £25 per dog per night, which isn't cheap, especially considering the limited amenities. However, the direct access to the New Forest is a major perk, offering your dog the chance to roam freely in nature. Just remember, dogs must be kept on leads inside the hotel, including the garden, which might be a bit of a hassle for those hoping for a more relaxed stay.
With only a select number of dog-friendly rooms, it's wise to call ahead to secure a spot. The lack of weight restrictions is a plus, but the general cleaning fee adds to the cost. If you're looking for a place where your dog can enjoy some freedom and you don't mind the extra fees, Balmer Lawn could be a good fit. Just be prepared for some restrictions and bring your own gear.
This hotel has been evaluated, ranked, and reviewed using the Roch Standard, the world's first dog friendly standard for the hotel industry. We gathered data directly from the hotel, and benchmarked it against thousands of other hotels in order to fairly derive its rank.
