Dogs not allowed

March 22, 2026

I joined RHS last year and was disappointed to learn that dogs aren’t allowed. I don’t mean dogs running all over the place off lead. Dogs on lead would hardly cause a disturbance. I live in Wakefield and with the two hour commute to and from there including the three to four hours we spend there is too long to leave them at home. We like to have lunch in the Harrogate Arms and make a day of it.

I went to the Christmas light show which was wonderful. However, a boy aged around five ran into me at one point. I almost fell over another child who was running around. So these uncontrollable kids are allowed but now dogs. I will not be renewing.
