Your four-legged friend is welcome to explore Winkworth Arboretum all year round. To help everyone have the best possible visit, please adhere to the Countryside Code and keep your dog on a lead at all times.
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.
Winkworth Arboretum is a two pawprint rated place.
These places have water bowls and dog-friendly walks. You’ll be able to take your dog anywhere in the aboretum, but please keep them on a lead. Unfortunately we're unable to provide dog waste bins, but there is a waste bin outside the tea-room if needed. 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.
Well-behaved dogs on short leads are welcome anywhere in the arboretum.
Dogs are welcome in the large seating area outside the tea-room, where we offer a bowl of water so they can enjoy a drink too.
We’ve worked with our partner Forthglade to come up with this Canine Code, which helps to make sure everyone can enjoy their day:
Our definition of close or effective control is:
Winkworth is home to a wide variety of native animals, including the beautiful roe deer. You can help look after the arboretum's precious wildlife by keeping your dog on a short lead and under close control.
As advised by the RSPCA, please don't leave your dog unattended in a car at any time during the year.
