    We've stayed in a few hotels in Keswick with our French Bulldog but the Royal Oak has by far been the best. Welcome doggy pack, doggy breakfasts and super dog friendly staff. The room was spacious enough for all you carry being a dog owner,...

    The staff are extremely helpful and go above and beyond! The breakfast and evening meals were delicious and the staff made a big fuss of our dog.
