Stratford hotel scoops award for most dog friendly
A Stratford hotel has scooped an award for being the most dog friendly. Stunning neo-Gothic mansion and 4 Red Star hotel Ettington Park sits in 40 acres and has bagged the honour at the Condé Nast Johansens Awards for Excellence[1].
Ettington Park is a spectacular and captivating mansion set within 40 lush acres in the Warwickshire countryside. Boasting a centuries-old heritage, Ettington Park offers uncompromising luxury to all of its guests – including four-legged friends. [2]
Proud to be dog friendly – as is the entire collection – Hand Picked Hotels offers dogs a five-star treatment during their stay. On arrival, dogs will receive a personalised welcome letter from the GM alongside a ‘mini bar’ of treats for their enjoyment.
Dog-friendly hotel bedrooms have been specifically located for easy access to the hotel’s expansive gardens, which offer a number of picturesque walks for the whole family to explore. After a day of adventures, guests can sit back and relax in the dog-friendly The Oak Lounge.
Or, if they prefer, they may dine alfresco on the Terrace which overlooks the beautiful grounds, with a view of the Norman Church and Orangery. For those who want a more intimate experience, the Private Dining rooms are also dog-friendly for those who wish to celebrate a special occasion with all the family.

We know for many people, leaving their dogs at home when they go on holiday can be a sad moment, which is why we decided to make sure our guests don’t have to make that decision. Winning the 2024 Condé Nast Johansens Awards is a fantastic accolade and a recognition of all the hard work and effort the team at Ettington Park put in every day to ensure all of our guests have an exceptional stay.”
