Beningbrough Hall, Gallery and Gardens

Dogs are welcome in most areas at Beningbrough including designated tables at the rear of the restaurant and the shop. Bring your furry friend along on a short lead and explore the gardens or parkland together. Here's how to make the most of your day out together.

Our pawprint rating system
We’ve been working on making it easier for you to find out how dog-friendly your visit will be before you and your four-legged-friend arrive. To help with this, we've created a new pawprint rating system and given all the places in our care a rating. You can find this information in the National Trust members’ handbook.

Beningbrough is a three pawprint rated place
Three pawprints shows the very best places you can visit for a day with your dog. You’ll be able to take your dog to most areas, including indoors for a cup of tea and a treat. There’ll be clearly signed dog zones and dog-friendly experiences. Read on to discover exactly where you can take your dog.
