A dog-friendly and award-winning food-centred country inn on the banks of the River Lambourn. Worth making a detour for, and it's a stylish place to meet up with friends.
Village pub with good cafe menu in a pub ambience. Dogs are welcome and the garden is quite large. The walk is very short and boisterous dogs will feel cheated. Less than a mile from the A14.
So close to the motorway but this village and walk is definitely in the countryside.
A doggiestop off the A35 with lots of interest to see, and you can pack it all into a short stop.
Lovely place to make a doggiestop on your journey, with a really good shop for fresh produce as well as tasty meals. And there's a dog walk on a public footpath from the car park too.
Two dog-friendly pubs and a dog walk within easy reach of the M27 junction 1. Good dog walks nearby, just avoid the golf courses if you're not using the suggested route.
Quiet watery space to make a doggiestop just before Sheffield. The pub you pass on the way is dog and family-friendly with a new kids play area.
One of Jem's favourite doggiestops and it's lovely for dog swimming, a short walkies, and really excellent home-made cakes. The operational steam railway will thrill everyone, and it smells divine!
It's worth taking a break in this pretty village, or you'll miss everything by driving by.
On the A56 and near to the M53, this coverted barn is now a stylish doggiestop for travelling pooches. Great food and coffee - and don't miss the alpacas!
Close to both the M20 and the A28 this is a reliable all-weather doggiestop with a dog walk partly on a hard-surface.
Canal towpaths are lovely because there's no chance of getting lost on your walk. And this one starts from a dog-friendly pub that must have seen a good slice of canal action over the years.
