The Dundas Arms is a warm welcoming hotel in an interesting setting between canal and river on the edge of a lovely village. The room was well appointed with a comfortable bed. The restaurant was busy with good service and a good menu of delicious food. The staff are exceptionally friendly and efficient. It was our diamond wedding celebration and we were well looked after and given complimentary bubbly to celebrate. We had a most enjoyable 3 days and consider Dundas an ideal country venue and...

We had a lovely two day stay. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The food was good and the room was serviced each day. Tea and coffee was available in the room and milk provided on asking. Excellent breakfast too.

Absolutely lovely stay at The Royal oak. Beautifully decorated throughout, with a really warm and homely feel. Staff were welcoming, dinner and breakfast were first-class and my room was spotlessly clean with a great bathroom and comfy bed. Would definitely return, I stayed for work but it would be a lovely place for a weekend away.

This is a good base for touring the area. Highclere Castle is a minutes drive away, but closed in winter. You can walk a public footpath in the grounds to Kingsclere.
The food is excellent and good value, served by helpful friendly staff.

We recently returned and stayed in a comfy double room last weekend.
Very well maintained hotel, room and facilities. The room was spotless. Great choice of indoor and outdoor seating and restaurant and bar services.
We were satisfied with the gym. We didn’t use the sauna and steam rooms this time.
Not the quietest of venues during event nights.

We used the hotel as a base to visit the Bombay Sapphire gin factory which was very close by.
It was an emotional visit for me as i last saw the hotel as my boarding school in 1968 I also fount my initials carved on a wall I remember this even after 48 years The hotel was fantastic we enjoyed our stay for one night and had a lovely breakfast. The only disappointment was the evening meal We did now want anything grand so chose the bar menu

What pet-friendly activities should we do in Elcot?

For those who enjoy a good walk, the surrounding Berkshire countryside offers numerous footpaths and trails great for you and your dog. You could take a leisurely stroll along the Kennet and Avon Canal towpath, which provides flat, well-maintained paths and plenty of scenic views.

Another excellent option is visiting the local market towns like Hungerford or Marlborough, which are just a short drive from Elcot. Both towns have dog-friendly shops and cafes, and you'll often find water bowls left out for pets. Hungerford is particularly known for its antique shops, many of which welcome well-behaved dogs inside.
For a more structured outing, some local country estates and gardens offer specific dog-friendly routes or areas. It's always a good idea to check their individual websites before visiting to confirm their pet policies, as these can sometimes change.
Can I cancel my pet-friendly hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right pet-friendly hotel in Elcot for you.
Do any Elcot hotels have restrictions on pet sizes or breeds?
First ensure you have picked a pet-friendly hotel by using the "Pet friendly" filter under the "Amenities" section in your search. If a hotel in Elcot has restrictions on pet sizes or breeds, you will find this information clearly in their property listing on Expedia. When you're on the property listing page, simply click on "Policies" to see what pet-specific policies the hotel implements.

How do I ensure I have booked a pet-friendly room in Elcot?
To ensure you've booked a pet-friendly room on Expedia, use the filters in your search and select "Pet friendly" under the "Amenities" section. This will narrow your options to properties that allow pets. Once you find a hotel you're interested in, click on it and review the "Policies" section for specific details about their pet policy. This often includes information about pet types, size restrictions, fees, and whether pets are allowed in all rooms or only certain ones. When selecting your room type, read the room description to check that it's pet-friendly, as not all rooms in a pet-friendly hotel may accommodate pets. For added peace of mind, contact the hotel to confirm the room you've selected allows pets.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a pet-friendly hotel in Elcot as a package?
