Waterside dog walk near Long Eaton, Nottinghamshire Flat but interesting dog walk on the waterways' equivalent of spaghetti junction.
The Fieldhead Hotel - dog-friendly, Leicestershire Decent pub, less than 5 minutes walk from the M1 junction 22. The manager loves dogs, and keeps water, treats and blankets on the bar. The food's not bad - nothing fancy, standard pub grub.
M6 Jct 18 dog-friendly inn and dog walk, Cheshire A dog-friendly bolthole just a mile from the M6 Junction 18. Exquisitely prepared afternoon teas and a relaxing country pub atmosphere.
The beer garden with the fantastic view, Staffordshire This has to be the 'best view from a beer garden' in the county. Totally stunning on a clear day, and worth the winding lanes to get here.
