We loved this tiny slice of canalside history, with an easy and interesting walk with the dog plus a visit to a well-stocked emporium of canal memorabilia, books, doggie ice-cream and craft supplies.
A welcoming Georgian inn where dogs are made comfortable in the bar. The village is not at all far from the A515 but it feels as if you've landed in a previous century here.
An imposing house and gardens, and what's really nice about it is the informal and relaxed atmosphere created by visitors playing games, having a picnic and generally having a brilliant time on the...
We love finding a dog-friendly traditional village inn with modern comforts and good food. And this gorgeous village has plenty to offer its visitors.
A cheerful place to stop right on the border, and with a fenced path leading onto the moors for a dog walk.
You have the choice of two dog walks here, and both offer spectacular views of the Cheviots and Scotland, or across the top of Northumberland.
Tiny hamlet amidst the moors with a small car park and very clean public loos. And the walk is perfectly signed from the car park.
Easy walking in the forest, and a great spot for a picnic too. Ideal family stop and plenty of parking.
This must be one of the nicest towns no-one has heard of. And a dog-friendly cafe and many independent shops means that you don't need to leave the dog in the car while you go and explore.
A wonderful place to take a break from the A52 with a choice of fab dog walks, super tea rooms, plenty of parking and lots of heritage interest too. Loads of space for kids to let off steam too.
A friendly pub with no delusions of grandeur and a happy and welcoming feel. Dogs are welcomed, as they should be in this valley that is the namesake of the Patterdale Terrier.
As warm and doggie-welcoming as you could wish, this country pub has a clean and smart interior. The back bar with the woodburner is a delight. It's really easy to get here from the A590.
