A great place for a dog walk, and an intriguing open air industrial heritage experience for anyone vaguely interested in the past.
Vast beach and excellent for dogs and football/cricket players. On the afternoon we took the photos here at the start of the school holidays (August) there was one other car on the beach.
Forest paths stretching for miles and miles over the hills. It's ideal for dogs, with no stiles or sheep to worry about. Even in the rain you stay fairly sheltered here.
This dog walk is close to Junction 7 and 8 of the M20. Stop here for a good length circular dog-walk, and an excellent and dog-welcoming inn with B&B to return to.
Haywood Oaks and Blidworth Bottoms are a fave destination for lots of Notts doggies. There's plenty of romping space, and a friendly chatting space for post-walkies coffee and cake.
Long walks along beach in two directions with sands and clay cliffs. Tidal river and when the tide is in there's not so much space for walking. Dogs allowed at any time of day and all year round.
Visit the village where Thomas Crapper (populiser of the flush WC) was born, and enjoy a dog walk along the banks of the Don. It's very atmospheric and interesting.
A short with the dog to see the site of the castle where Mary Queen of Scots lost her head. It seems a forlorn grassy lump these days but the castle was significant some 400 years ago.
If you are looking for somewhere to return to again and again for your walkies, this place should do the trick. There are loads of walks to enjoy and you can pick up leaflets from the visitor centre.
With 600 acres of parkland, Heaton Park is a massively popular open space for Mancunians, and their dogs. You can get here easily from several M60 junctions, and also the M62.
Great on and off lead dog walks with places for kids to explore and play.
Large dog-friendly sandy bay, almost deserted out of season.
