With around one-in-three Scottish households now thought to have a dog, many businesses are coming around to the idea that furry family members need to be catered for.

It used to be relatively unusual for hotels to allow pups, but now an increasing number are emphasising their dog-friendly status.

Some might even provide doggy bowls, towels and other services for four-legged guests.

Here are 10 of the best according to reviewers on www.booking.com, where they can also be booked.
