Less than 5 miles from either the M1 Junction 8 or M25/21A you'll find a civilized dog-friendly dining pub with EV charging and a short dog sniffari in the adjacent woodland.
This is a 'there and back' Public Footpath walk through some charming countryside, starting in a village with a ford, ducks and working water mill that looks more like a film set than a real life...
A small park with a creek running along the edge of it. There is a rough field which is great for chase and fetch and then a nice clear creek to cool off in afterwards.
Combination of a safe and tranquil park for dog walkers, and a fabulous museum that is a joy for kids of all ages to visit. The cafe and facilities are squeaky lovely too.
Friendly and welcoming village inn serving food that's a 'cut above' but not making a massive fuss about it. And dog-friendly, with a walk from the door. That'll do nicely.
This is a good lunchtime stop, with a short stroll around the village for the dog and a really friendly family-run pub with light bites or pub classics on the menu. The pub is dog-friendly too.

A dog-friendly and traditional village pub. Close to both the A5 and the M1 Junction 12 and 13. Good food, and a useful set meal / fixed price option at lunchtimes.
To get a real feel for a traditional canal-side pub (but much cleaner!) this is the one to head for. Incredibly the pub has been run by the same family for over 150 years, which must be a record.
Refreshments in a popular old coaching inn with a dog walk from the door makes this a pawfect doggiestop. It's less than 5 miles from the M1 Junction 15 or the A428 and near Northampton.

Country park near Leicester, with woodland trails and a windmill. It's based around a traditional farm that was bequeathed to the council to use as a sort of outdoor heritage museum
A lovely woodland walk - dog safe for off lead walking, paths round the woods, mostly gravelled path round the outside or other paths for the more adventurous walker.
A country park with plenty of nature and history to look out for. The beacon hill is one of the highest points in Leicestershire, and gives a big view on a clear day.

Once a colliery spoil tip, now this is a dog walker delight. The area has been re-developed as a community green space and is popular with dog owners and families.

A walk by the side of a lake is just the job for a hot day, and the sight of brightly coloured sails on the water sets the scene for relaxation perfectly.

This easy-to-find park is a popular local dog walking place, and it's nice to watch the bobbing sails of dinghies on the way around the lake. There's also a cafe, and an adventure playground for kids.
This park is absolutely vast, with over 1500 acres of woodland and parkland, and a working farm. And what dog could resist the opportunity to leave his mark against a tree planted by Capability Brown?
