How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from Agoda — guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover — we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 5 Agoda guest reviews overall, averaging 9.5/10 — the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: May 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 policy at a glance
- Up to 1 pet allowed upon request.

Pet-friendly summary
Paw rating: 4.5 / 5 based on a single confirmed pet-traveller review. The sample is small, so the score is preliminary — but it's reinforced by the property's pet policy, which formally allows up to one pet on request.
Cherry Tree Cottage is a self-contained character cottage near Leyburn in the Yorkshire Dales. The one verified pet-traveller stayed with a group of five plus a dog and described the cottage as comfortably absorbing the lot — people, dog, walking gear and all — without feeling cramped. For active dog owners using the cottage as a base for hill walking, having space inside for muddy boots and dog kit is a meaningful win.
The whole-house format means dogs aren't sharing corridors or facilities with other guests' pets, and the Dales setting makes for some of the best dog walking in the country: bridleways, footpaths and quieter back lanes lead straight from the village out into open country, with Leyburn nearby for supermarket runs and a wider choice of dog-friendly pubs.
One practical heads-up from the same reviewer: the cottage sits close to a busy A-road, which they found loud enough that they couldn't comfortably sleep with the windows open. Owners of noise-sensitive dogs may want to check the exact location before booking — and double-check there's a secure area for the dog to be in the garden, given the proximity to traffic.
Best suited to: active hill-walking families with one calm dog wanting a spacious Dales base. Less suitable for very anxious dogs sensitive to road noise.
