We’ve been working on making it easier for you to find out how dog-friendly your visit will be before you and your four-legged friend arrive. To help with this, we've created a new pawprint rating system and given all the places in our care a rating. You can find this information in the National Trust members’ handbook.
Bembridge Windmill is a one pawprint rated place.
Dogs are welcome here, but facilities are limited. They’ll be able to stretch their legs in the car parking area and walk in the nearby open spaces, depending on the season. Read on to discover exactly where you can take your dog.
Dogs on leads are welcome within the grounds of the windmill but only assistance dogs are permitted within the windmill (ground floor only). There are tie points within the grounds, where you can keep your four-legged friend safe while you visit the inside of the mill.
We also have dog water bowls and there is a dog bin, so you can dispose of any waste, in the parking lay-by.
There are plenty of footpaths around the windmill to explore as well, all year round.
