How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 13 pet-mention guest reviews sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.

- Wider context: The property has 462 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 9.2/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: July 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet-friendly summary
The Marton Arms is a traditional inn just outside Ingleton, on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales, and it has built a real reputation as a dog-friendly base for exploring this walking and caving country. The setting is quiet and rural, with open views, yet it is handy for the Ingleton waterfalls trail, the show caves and the wider Three Peaks area.
Dog owners speak warmly about the welcome here. Many mention thoughtful touches such as a little welcome pack or treat bag for their dog on arrival, and staff who go out of their way to make both owner and pet feel at home. The dog-friendly rooms are kept clean, the food and locally brewed beer draw consistent praise, and there is plenty of parking, which makes arriving after a long drive easy.
A couple of honest notes. There is a charge of around 20 pounds per night for a dog, which is worth factoring into the cost of a stay. One or two guests have mentioned a lingering dog scent in a room or a mattress that had seen better days, though these sit against a strong run of glowing stays.
For dog owners who want a friendly, food-focused inn with the Yorkshire Dales and Ingleton's caves and waterfalls on the doorstep, The Marton Arms earns a 4.7 out of 5 paw rating.
