Four-legged friends

With 1700 acres of beautiful parkland to be explored we love welcoming visitors with their dogs, who are often eager for some exercise. We do ask that dogs are kept on their leads around livestock at all times, but are happy for dogs with good recall to be let loose in the woods. Please refrain from letting your dog loose if it is likely to chase deer, especially throughout July and August when female deer will be expecting. Livestock on the estate is often moved to avoid over-grazing so it’s best to enquire in Visitor Reception, before you set off, which route would be best for you to take with your four legged friend.

Water bowls can be located at The Granary and the Old Apple Store tea-room as well as outside taps for muddy paws. Dog waste bins can be found outside Visitor Reception and in the top car park. In the woods, we are happy for you to use the ‘stick and flick’ method.
