This is a super-short dog walk and more for drivers than dogs. The waterfalls are tremendous and well worth a look. The main attraction here are the super-clean alpine style toilets!
A dog walk with a birds eye view of the Cromarty Firth and the Moray Firth too.
I was charmed by the warmth and comfort inside this dog-friendly waterside inn. The food gets regular rave reviews, and service is swift and pleasant.
The dogs had such a great time in the forest here. We chose a route with twinkling rivulets, old oak trees and lots of great things for dogs to sniff. And it was just perfect.
Quaint little harbour village with a dog-friendly pub, a pretty dog-friendly cafe and playgrounds for kids to enjoy. If you're camping, there's also a CAMC club site on the seafront.
The abbey ruins are closed, in the sense that a fence prevents access to the walls.
A perfect walk for less sociable dogs (or people!) as you're very unlikely to encounter other dogs on this remote woodland path.
A lovely country pub that's dog-friendly and close by the A413. Such a shame that access to several really excellent dog walks is blocked by a railway line on one side and a river on the other.
Outstanding lakeside gardens with access to watersports on Windermere and a National Trust cafe and car park. On a sunny day what could be better than a cream tea in this tranquil setting?
A really popular dog walking and paddling spot where the beach is made of tough grass. Loads of doggie fun!
A former drovers' inn that dates back to the 13th century, and that seems totally incredible. But it's still providing hungry travellers with great food and a warm welcome.
