A quiet dog walk and a dog-friendly pub close to the M1 Junction 35. The dog walk is through the leafy splendour of an ancient coppice.
Dog walk in a really interesting country park, formed out of the remains of a colliery. The ponds in the park came about from subsidence, not design. It's a gritty sort of park, but worth a visit.
A gloriously sheep and stile-free walk in an ancient forest that's now part of the Pembrokeshire national park.
This is a tremendous place to stop so allow plenty of time for dogs, kids and everyone to celebrate the big spaces and heritage here. Just wonderful.
A wonderful, easy dog walk across the roof of Berkshire.
A satisfying dog walk that's free from sheep and stiles. A definite advantage when the surrounding fells are home to thousands of sheep. So dogs can happily run off-lead and it's a safe space.
Popular with local dog walkers, this is a great break from the autoroute for drivers, dogs and everyone. The paths are wide and easy to follow, and the forest is a delight.
Dog-friendly pub in the centre of a Dartmoor village, and with a good dog walk from the door. It seems incredible that this seemingly remote place is so close to the A30.
Atmospheric remains of a bygone castle and an excellent dog-friendly cafe make this a nice place to take a break, or meet up with friends.
This is an orderly and well maintained country park, with hard surface paths creating accessibility routes – and all weather dog walking in clean footwear a definite possibility.
Very easy to reach dog walk off the A1 near St Neots. A series of lakes with well marked paths and an attractive mix of water and wildflowers. Lovely walking for people and dogs.
This is the beach that was used in the filming of the 2011 Dulux advert (the one with the dog running past the lighthouse).
