Description

Combination of a safe and tranquil park for dog walkers, and a fabulous museum that is a joy for kids of all ages to visit. The cafe and facilities are squeaky lovely too.  This stop works best for two or more people as dogs are banned from inside the facilities.   Dogs aren't allowed in the museum, but the caring curators there do provide dog water bowls for after-walkies rehydration.

Full Walk Details
