Dog-friendly walks and outdoor places across the UK

Livestock graze parts of the walks – do not approach or try to feed them: keep dogs under close control, move round the herd and shut gates behind you.

Keep dogs closely controlled around grazing livestock, pass around herds and close gates. Stay on the waymarked trail; wet ground and deep pools are hazardous. Follow shooting notices September–February. Dog access concerns the named reserve outdoor walking routes, subject to current signs and temporary restrictions. Indoor facilities and neighbouring businesses are not included. Dog charges and dog-number limits are unconfirmed; parking charges are separate. The pin is approximate, derived from the owner published 100m OS grid square for visitor parking or trail access (SH 506 773). Use the owner directions because the postcode covers a broad area.

Parking is paid, free for National Trust members, with no overnight parking or camping. Contact the estate on 01579351346 or [email protected].

Dog walking is welcomed in this individually identified Forestry England outdoor site under the forest dog code. Keep dogs close and in sight; use a lead when recall is unreliable, prevent chasing people or animals, clean up waste and follow local wildlife, forestry-work and safety signs. Temporary restrictions can change available routes. Indoor buildings, concession cafés, campsites and event admission are not covered by this outdoor permission. Parking charges are separate from dog admission; dog fees and dog-number limits are not established. The mapped point is the owner published visitor-location point, not an independently confirmed entrance.

Keep dogs under control, avoid distressing visitors or wildlife, use leads where official signs require and clear up after dogs. Forestry operations may restrict access; follow safety signs.

There may be restrictions on access to parts of the forest from time to time due to forest operations. Pay attention to safety signage.
