Junction 22
The riverside path here is some 2.5m wide with plenty of dog romping space and an abundance of wildlife. This is probably as close as it gets to Wind in the Willows land, a magical walk.
Interesting dog walk and a dog-friendly pub close to the A303 near Ilminster. I must have driven past this hundreds of times and never thought to stop, so don't miss out!

Junction 2
Easy to find dog-friendly pub - and the walk starts directly from the car park. Perfect!
Junction 21
The pub is deceptive - bigger inside than you'd think from the car park, and it's strong on food too. The walk is an easy one to find, and dogs get a good off-lead run.
Enormous chunk of forest - with a really good cafe for that post-walk tea and cakes! This is well worth an explore, ideal for taking a break for dog walkies and a fix of sanity if you're boiling up on...
Lovely village to take a driving break, with a choice of dog-friendly refreshments from either a quirky cafe or the village pub. And a farm shop too.

This is a dog walk that does exactly what it says on the tin: one path that winds through an avenue of rhododendron bushes, there and back. And the dog-friendly pub is a treat.
Junction 9
A friendly, welcoming pub next to a fabulous ancient forest where dogs can go nuts in the trees.
Junction 4
Very easy to get to from the M42, and a nice dog-friendly pub - but the walk is almost non-existent. On the other hand, if you've been stuck in traffic this could well be a useful doggiestop.

Junction 6

Long sandy beaches, dunes, and plenty of space for dogs to enjoy themselves away from the village centre - where there are shops and take-aways for picnics.
A dog walk over fields and community woodland that has lots of options to vary the length. It's a pretty walk in summer and well worth exploring. The nearby pub/restaurant is dog-friendly.

A choice of dog walks here, including one with full wheelchair access along the Viking Way. The signage is very good and if you're staying nearby it's worth exploring the different routes.

If you're travelling across the A66, a great place to stretch your legs and dog's paws is in the village of Dufton - an attractive village which sits on the Pennine Way.
This historic village is a fantastic place for dogs, and kids of all ages from 4 to 94. The dunes and beach behind the massive castle are wide and spacious enough for the most energetic hound.
The first thing to notice about this village is the enormous village green. And then, lurking beyond the green are the ruins of an old castle. And the resident dogs - lots of them!

Super special Grade 1 listed pub, once called home by the Lord of the Manor. So if dog-friendly dining in style makes your posh pooch happy, head for the Old Hall.
Junction 9
Lovely relaxing dog walk along the Birmingham and Fazeley canal towpath, with side paths into a nature reserve. The towpath is well-maintained and clean underfoot.
Popular with walkers, and close to some lovely dog walks. The Drovers was bought by an Edinburgh pubco (2022) and details may have changed since then. They are definitely still dog-friendly.
A dining pub with great food and a pleasant welcome for people and dogs. Plus a circular walk or shorter options and no stiles or sheep.

Wilton Roundabout
A delightful 17th century inn with easy access to dog walks and the River Wye for particularly hot dogs to take a dip.

Splendid dog day out with a visit to this ruined castle with a past full of bravery and derring do.

Handy for the M40 Junction 5 and 6. An unusual part of the county as the woodland here is owned either by the Forestry Commission or the National Trust. Excellent news for dog-walkers.
Even though the car park is directly off the A9 northbound, after just a few paces along the path, you would never know you're anywhere near a main road.
Restaurant/Country pub with masses of parking, expensive menu but accepts dogs into the bar area and gardens. Fresh water for the doggies on request.
Junction 2
