A bustling and traditional Teesdale town with dog-friendly cafe and pubs, and small independent shops. It feels a bit like a film set, but this small town is delightfully real and well worth a visit.
Busy small market town on the edge of the moors and with a somewhat quaint feel and atmosphere.
This is a wonderfully busy little market town, with a number of cafes as well as dog-friendly pubs and a thriving atmosphere. I'd not heard of it before, but what a great place for a weekend away.
Good choice here of a recreation ground for kids, and a dog walk on a bridleway to the side of the rec. The dog-friendly country inn has loads more space than you'd guess from the outside.
An easy walk along a flat, surfaced former railway line that's now a multi-user path with fine views over the surrounding countryside and waterway.
A quiet forest where you're only likely to meet other dog walkers, and not too many of them. The pull-in has space for around 5 cars with careful parking which limits visitor numbers.
Easy walking in the forest, and a great spot for a picnic too. Ideal family stop and plenty of parking.
Rather a nice dog-friendly pub where you can sit on the green and watch the world go by if the weather's fine. Kids have a play area by the pond, within easy reach of the tables.
A short walk across boardwalks and close to the water.
Traditional country pub with an enormous beer garden and very friendly service.
Traditional dog-friendly destination food pub with a short walk for the dog on the Green.
A dog walk that's as long, or short, as you like and a dog-friendly pub for refreshments and parking.
