48 hours in Bath with The Four Legged Foodies

A shaggy dog on a leash stands on cobblestones before "The Bird Bath" building. A car is parked nearby. The dog looks cheerful.

For our first night, we checked into The Bird which is a wonderfully dog friendly hotel just a short stroll from the city centre.

The hotel has a free car park where you will also find a dog toilet area by way of a small patch of astroturf.

A small dog sits on a patterned couch in a cozy room with colorful art of a red cat on the wall. Decorative pillows and flowers add charm.

The Bird is beautiful designed - although we had a slight issue with a cat taking pride of place on the wall - and has some nice touches like free soft drinks and jars of sweets to help yourself to.

The rooms are up some stairs (no lift) which are quite steep but when we got there we had a cosy, clean bedroom with a wonderful view of the city.

We had beds and bowls waiting for us in the room.

Dogs are most welcome everywhere at The Bird including in the bar and restaurant which is in the basement. Our humans were delighted to see they had an extensive cocktail list.

The humans were also delighted by the food. The menu is a sharing one, where you choose a mixture of small and large plates and sides to share.

Our humans being greedy decided to try most of the items on the menu and they loved every morsel.

*It is worth visiting The Bird for the restaurant alone.

With full bellies, we all retired to the room where I decided to sleep on the sofa rather than my dog bed!

The following morning we returned to the restaurant for breakfast where we were immediately offered our own sausage which had been pre-cooked so we didn't even have to wait for it to cool down!

The humans filled up their bellies with breakfast before setting for another day exploring the city.

Book your stay at The Bird Bath here.

Our second night was spent at The Francis Hotel which is right in the heart of the city, on Queen Square which was a perfect place for us to use as a toilet.
