A large car park, easy access to the river and tasty food makes this a popular place to enjoy an easy dog walk, with doggie swimming, and take a break.
Well-organised and relaxing country park, ideal for dog walking. It seemed like a very gentle and calm place when we were there.
This is the perfect hot weather dog walk over paw-cooling grass. Pleasure boats on the river pass by from time to time, and there's a sense of 365 day holidays here.
This small town is just on the edge of the Forêt d'Orient national park, and as its well away from the more obviously touristic town, the atmosphere here feels incredibly laid back and sleepy.
Superb dog-walking here, with swimming places and broad open spaces for dogs to really stretch their legs. Kids will love this place too - there's a sturdy and well-equipped pirates playground.
Definitely worth leaving the autoroute to explore this tiny medieval village, with a couple of very appetising boulangerie / patisserie, a deer park and enticingly dozey atmosphere.
This is one of our favourite stops - with a fabulous forest off-lead walk for the dog, and then just a few miles down the road there's a village with an excellent restaurant and an old abbey to admire...
If your dog likes a forest to himself - head to this Forestry Commission space in the middle of nowhere. Acres of fresh air, trees and well made paths.
530 acres of attractive woodland, grassland and heathland with a lake in the middle.
A wonderful place to visit at any time of year, and perfect for dog-walkers. This is a lovely expanse of greenery with loads of meadows, lakes and trees to sniff around.
If your dog loves to swim and splash, this is a great place to come in the summer. The bend on the River Avon was, once upon a time, a natural open-air lido for the residents of Stratford.
