Dog Friendly Beaumaris & Anglesey: Best Places to Stay

A guide to dog-friendly beaches, walks and dining in Beaumaris, plus a welcoming Anglesey hotel for your stay.

Dog friendly hotel in Beaumaris, Anglesey

Anglesey is one of the most dog-friendly destinations in Wales. The island has over 40 beaches where dogs are welcome. It also has over 125 miles of coastal path that dogs can explore year-round. Beaumaris is a great base for a dog-friendly break. Dogs on leads are allowed in the Beaumaris Castle grounds. Many restaurants in Beaumaris welcome dogs too. If you are searching for Beaumaris places to stay with your dog, The Bulkeley Hotel welcomes dogs in selected bedrooms and dining areas. It sits right on Castle Street, opposite the beach and pier.

Why Anglesey Is a Dream for Dogs

Ask any dog owner who has visited, and they will tell you the same thing. Few hotels in Anglesey, Wales, enjoy a setting quite like this. The island is wrapped in over 125 miles of idyllic coastline, and the Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path gives you access to almost all of it. The route passes through dunes, salt marsh, woodland and clifftops, with 95% of it sitting within a designated National Landscape. Your dog will never run out of new smells.

Visit Wales has celebrated just how dog-friendly Ynys Môn is. From lighthouse walks at South Stack to strolls through historic towns, the island genuinely welcomes four-legged visitors. That is a big part of why Anglesey hotels see so many guests arriving with a lead in hand.

Dog Friendly Beaches Near Beaumaris

Anglesey's beaches are the star attraction. Most welcome dogs all year round. According to Anglesey County Council, only seven beaches have restricted zones, and these apply from 1 May to 30 September. Even then, dogs and owners can still enjoy part of every beach. Clear signs and maps show you where to go.

Favourites within easy reach include Red Wharf Bay, a huge sweep of sand at low tide, and Llanddona, a quieter spot with views across the water. Further afield, Newborough Beach offers golden sand backed by pine forest, with most of it open to dogs year-round. Closer to home, Beaumaris beach sits directly opposite the hotel, so a morning paddle is only a minute away.

Walkies with a View: The Coastal Path and Castle

Beaumaris is a brilliant starting point for the coastal path. Head south along the Menai Strait, and you will enjoy views across to the mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia). The paths are well marked, and there are plenty of stiles with dog gates along the way.

History lovers are in luck, too. Beaumaris Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, welcomes dogs on short leads at the ground-floor level. It is one of the finest medieval castles in Europe, and it is a two-minute walk from our front door. Not many hotels in Anglesey can offer a castle, a beach and a pier all on the doorstep.

Places to Eat in Beaumaris with Your Dog

You will not go hungry here, and neither will your dog. Many restaurants in Beaumaris and cafés along Castle Street welcome well-behaved dogs. Water bowls appear outside shop doors all summer long.

At The Bulkeley, dogs are welcome in all public areas except Hansom's Dining Room. Our Traditional Coffee Lounge is perfect for coffee, cake and ice cream after a windswept walk. For something more substantial, the Llewelyn Suite offers dog-friendly dining where every menu can be enjoyed — from breakfast through to dinner and afternoon tea. When you are weighing up places to eat in Beaumaris, it is nice to know your dog can join you at the table.
