Dogs are welcome at Bossington all year round, and there is plenty of space for your four-legged friend to explore while you're here. Please help keep Bossington enjoyable for everyone by keeping your dog under close control, cleaning up after them and following the guidance below.
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.
Bossington is a two pawprint rated place.
These places have water bowls, dog bins and dog-friendly walks. You’ll be able to take your dog into some areas, but not everywhere. If there’s a food and beverage outlet, you can have a cup of tea with them, probably outside. Read on to discover exactly where you can take your dog.
Dogs are welcome on the coastal footpaths that begin in Bossington village.
Follow the route from the National Trust car park to Hurlstone Point to enjoy spectacular sea views across to Wales.
