A golden sandy beach with no dog restrictions, and it goes on for miles and miles. Beach hounds don't get it any better than this.
Often overshadowed by its more well-known neighbour, Ilkley, the town of Otley is worth a visit and is handily placed for Leeds pooches getting out of town.
This is an enchanting wood, not easy to find but definitely worth the effort. It's near the M2 Junction 6.
A bracing seafront dog walk awaits you here, on a deserted strip of coastland cut off from the town of Havant by a bypass and now almost completely given over to dog-walkers.
Lots of footpaths here for a dog walk, and this is a less-visited part of the Cotswolds and agreeably quiet throughout the year. We've picked an easy walking route that avoids stiles and livestock.
A riverside path with access to the river for doggie swimming and an easy no-fuss walk just off the A66.
The village sits squarely on the river Tees, and the short walk here features the site of an old Roman bridge. Apparently the Romans lived here for just short of 500 years.
Relaxing waterside inn with tables overlooking the river. Dog-friendly and ideal for a leisurely weekend lunch. There's also free parking by a small common which leads onto a long dog walk.
Atmospheric walk beside the lakes, and a chance to greet the infant River Thames.
South coast village, full of charm and a delight to visit. Can get very busy in summer.
Magical dog-friendly pub with instant access to walks. Just pawfect. Watch out for the squadron of ducks guarding the car park!
Totally switched on country inn with a dog walk signed from the car park.
