Upmarket and dog-friendly establishment with an amazing terrace hanging over the river. The mill wheel still turns - not for grinding corn anymore though.
Smart dog-friendly dining and a relaxing dog walk by the river. In days of yore, think highwaymen and powdered wigs, this used to be a coaching inn and it's still a perfect place to break a journey.
One of the best hill fort remains in England, although the earthworks are all you see today. It must have been a really imposing centre all those years ago.
Atmospheric remains of a bygone castle and an excellent dog-friendly cafe make this a nice place to take a break, or meet up with friends.
A warm and welcoming inn that's half in Wales and half in England. They specialise in roasts, and the warm comforting aroma of Sunday lunch (but not just on Sundays) is a joy!
An excellent farm shop, cafe and children's play area next to the big, flat, open space where Henry IV (England) beat Henry 'Hotspur' Percy (Northumberland Rebels) away at Shrewsbury.
Easy to find dog-friendly pub - and the walk starts directly from the car park. Perfect!
17th century dog-friendly pub with a modern feel, and a fabulous location. In summer you can sit on the grass watching canal boats go by, and in winter there are several fires and woodburners.
An easy to navigate, interesting and varied walk along the towpaths of two canals.
A glorious dog walk along a towpath with the chance to watch narrowboats climbing the 21 closely placed locks of the 'Stairway to Heaven'. And a choice of dog-friendly places for refreshments.
Tranquil off-lead easy dog walk from a new-style community pub that's also a cafe. This is a relaxing place to break a journey. It's sooo close to the M40 junction but you'd never know it.
