As requested by you, here is a list of places that are Dog friendly, I will link all of them to a review where you can get more details.
There are lots of Dog friendly places however I like to only include places that I have been myself.
Lots of the places listed below have a no access rule for Dogs in the play areas, I would not advise leaving your Dog where you can’t see them but with two people they’re doable or in most cases my partner and I take it in turn to play with the girls and mind our Dog. Always follow local rules. Dogs need to be on the lead on public footpaths.
Some reviews are from my old website so the images aren't as high quality as they were copied over. In time I will update all images. If you want even more ideas, check out my Instagram.
