A picnic and dog run in Abbey ruins, Scotland
The abbey ruins are closed, in the sense that a fence prevents access to the walls.

Close to the most southerly point of Scotland the dog-friendly beach here is massive when the tide is out, and sandy too. Popular with local dog owners and paddleboarders.
Such a pleasure to come here with the dog. If the tide is in you can enjoy a woodland walk around the bay, or play on the sandy beach when the tide permits.
A perfect walk for less sociable dogs (or people!) as you're very unlikely to encounter other dogs on this remote woodland path.
Easy to spot and free parking by the water, a cafe with outside tables and a fantastic dog walk on part of the Southern Upland Way.
Small sand and shingle beach with enchanting views. It's a great place for a dog to put his nose up and sniff, and on a sunny day it feels just perfect.
A massive sandy beach with a number of large rockpools to entertain kids of all ages at low tide. Dogs have literally miles of running space and it is never crowded here.
An easy walk with no livestock to worry about and just one path through the bracken. Ideal for a quiet stroll with the dog in a little-frequented beauty spot.
Dog-friendly country inn with B&B about halfway between Ludlow and Bridgnorth.
What a strange place, half the hill is missing! The remaining half is part of the Shropshire Hill AONB.
A family-run 17th century village pub with a doggie swimming river nearby.
We really enjoyed the walk here and especially the sound of the waves rippling across the surface of the reservoir.
