A stroll along Hadrian's Wall is a fitting location for the last dog walk on the M6 in England (or the first out of Scotland).
Beautiful wide open space with the River Eden flowing through. Great beach for the dogs to go swimming. Stopped here while travelling up to Scotland. There is a monument here too.
A bustling tourist centre, with a fine dog walk and some dog-friendly pubs. Be prepared for quite a long stop here if you have Harry Potter fans on board or gardening enthusiasts.
Fabulous combination of a big sandy beach, and access to a long distance footpath too. Very popular with local dog-walkers, and pure doggie delight for the pooch.
Hardwick Hall near Sedgefield. Now a country hotel and grounds but used to be a stately home. Fantastic paved walks, flat and easy. Lakeside and woodland walk, follies and sculptures.
Even though the car park is directly off the A9 northbound, after just a few paces along the path, you would never know you're anywhere near a main road.
Beautiful forest and river walk.
Visitors to Stirling will relish the opportunity to combine a visit to the Wallace Monument with a hidden walk that most people miss.
A glorious 500 acres of dog walking in this country park - formerly a private estate.
This is a short walk for dogs, on hard surfaced paths ideal for wheelchairs, buggies, and wet days when you don't want to get your feet too wet.
Part of a bird sanctuary called Barons Haugh. There is a Japanese garden and it also has the oldest living thing in Lanarkshire - the Covenanters Oak, which is 800 years old.
Easy to reach from the A66, this castle ruin is a good doggiestop and fun for kids too. Free entry and plenty of fresh air.
