Church House Inn is a historic village pub in Marldon, just outside Paignton, with a strong local following and a proper welcome for dogs. That simple inclusion is especially useful when the weather turns or the day needs a proper sit-down pause.

Dogs are welcome inside the public bar, so you and your dog can settle in together for a drink or a meal without missing out on the pub atmosphere. The venue combines traditional bar service with dining and the setting reflects its roots as a country pub in a visitor-useful location. Parking is available for those arriving by car, making it straightforward to drop in with a dog in tow.

This is the sort of place where a lead and a pint sit comfortably side by side—a real village pub where dogs belong. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.
