A spokesman for Millets, who led the research, said: "As a nation of dog lovers, many of us will be looking to take our much-loved pups away with us for a relaxing getaway.

"However, it can be difficult to find the destinations that allow our trusted sidekicks to enjoy the benefits of a break like we do."

Dog-friendly restaurants and pubs in the city include The Eagle, The Black Horse and The Red Lion in Bishopsgate.

Carlisle took the crown as the most dog-friendly destination on the list and was ranked second highest for pet-friendly hotels.
