Windsor View, Hebden Bridge

Windsor View is a traditional stone under-dwelling on the edge of Hebden Bridge, and its appeal for dog owners is mostly about what sits outside the front door. The Calder Valley footpaths start within a few minutes' walk, the town centre is a ten-minute stroll, and guests who bring dogs regularly describe leaving the car parked for the whole stay. It earns a 4.3/5 paw rating.

Dogs are accepted by arrangement rather than as a standing policy, so the booking needs to be flagged in advance. Guests travelling with dogs have reported an extra pet charge, and that it has not always matched the amount quoted at the time of booking, so it is worth agreeing the figure with the owner before you travel.

The house itself is comfortable and warm, and the owner has a reputation for helpful communication: walking routes, local recommendations and a small welcome of milk and biscuits come up repeatedly. Hard floors run through much of the ground floor, which is easy to clean up after a wet walk, though a recurring note from dog owners is that they carry the noise of claws.

The honest caveat is condition. Alongside the positives, guests have flagged patchy cleanliness - dust on shelves, cobwebs - and a property that is due some redecoration, with the bathroom mentioned most often. It is a good-value base rather than a polished one.

Best suited to walkers with a dog who want the Pennine footpaths and Hebden Bridge itself on the doorstep, and who care more about location and space than about finish.
