Massive dog-friendly beach and dog-friendly pub with B&B, Northumberland
Huge free car park
Park in the large free car park beneath the castle and stroll through the dunes to the beach. No dog restrictions on the beach, so perfect on a clear breezy evening for a run to blow the cobwebs away!
The Hermitage woodland walk, Scotland
Lovely riverside/woodland walk full of surprises
A great stop-off from the northbound A9. The car park is well signed from the road - parking is £3 (cash only, no change) but if you find yourself short people will pass on their ticket as they leave...
There are a number of choices for a walk, ranging from a 20-min there-and-back to a couple of hours. We took the 45 minute option, which was well signed, and followed the river to an amazing hall/folly with a viewing platform over the falls and some inspirational poetry depicted on the walls. A great, easy but varied walk to break up a long journey.
Simonside Hills dog walk, Northumberland
A most wonderful walk!
A well-marked walk, worth the climb for the magnificent views and the path back to the start across the peaty landscape. We walked in August and were able to have dog off lead for most of the walk. Also wonderful heather in season and beautiful woodland. One of our all-time favourite walks ever.
The Hidden dog walk at South Mimms Services, Hertfordshire
Cooling off
This is a lovely walk, can be a quick circuit around the nature reserve adjacent to the back of the service station, or made into a proper long walk along the track and around or through the fields on the network of footpaths. If it's a hot day and dog needs cooling down there's a ford over a shallow brook perfect for a paddle or a swim.

Barely a soul in sight!
We had the beach to ourselves when we walked there in the early evening so Dog had the run of the place. Especially as you walk to the north, away from the town. The views are magnificent in both directions and the light entrancing.
It's possible to cross the golf course (carefully and respectfully of course!) and follow the storyboarded history trail as well into and around Dornoch.
