Ale Water picnic spot, Scotland
A very out of the way riverside picnic spot with access to the river for hot dogs. There's nothing going on in the village, although it was home to the 18th century poet William Knox.

This is one of my favourite castles on the Welsh/English border. It's perfect for a gentle stroll with the dog, a boisterous game site for travel-weary kids or even a romantic picnic.
Very pleasant local woodland walk, with some really loud woodpeckers to keep you company. No facilities, and not worth a detour from the motorway, but handy if you are already nearby.
This fell has several ways up, all stile free and fantastic views for such a small fell! There may be sheep on the top.
Top class dog walk and a lovely old thatched pub to sit outside and enjoy the countryside and bracing air.
This part of Lincolnshire rivals the Cotswolds for honey stone cottages and a quiet rural pace. It's a fine place for a dog walk.
Pendine is famous for its long, flat sandy beach backed by dunes.
We're not often baffled by a walk in the forest, but this one had us stumped.
Forestry Commission forest with its very own UFO trail, created to celebrate UFO sightings in the 1980s. Plenty of other paths also available and this is a fabulous family and dog walking space.
A country inn that's full of charm. Warm and comforting in winter, open and spacious in summer. Since we visited the management has changed at least twice - we think it's still dog-friendly.
This dog-friendly beach is in a lovely bay and a great place to run off some excess doggy energy.
Impressive, dog pleasing beach on the north coast. The dog-friendly bar in the town is a fine place to relax after your dogs seaside exertions.
