Queens Arms

The Queens Arms is a traditional village pub in Slapton, a short drive from Dartmouth, where dogs are welcome inside. You'll find it at the heart of this quiet South Devon village, useful if you're exploring the Slapton Ley nature reserve or heading down to the nearby beach with your dog. Inside, the pub offers a relaxed, dog-friendly atmosphere where both of you can settle in after a walk.

There's seating throughout and your dog can stay with you while you eat or drink. The welcome is genuine and the vibe is properly local rather than polished tourist.

Slapton makes a good base for dog walks along the coast path, the freshwater ley or the quieter lanes inland. Village parking is limited but usually manageable nearby and the pub serves as a handy stop whether you're staying in the area or passing through on a Dartmouth day out.
