Comments for Out With The Dog

An absolutely stunning place to walk your dog.
It does require National Trust membership though for parking so it would be beneficial to have it. Even if you do have NT, you still have to book online during weekends as you need a slot! Otherwise you might get sent to a Sevenoaks parking somewhere which is a nice walk too.

It would be probably wise to keep your dog on leads at all times though due to a high amount of deer roaming around the whole park – and they’re not just 1 pack so you will see deer quite often (even around the parking area).
Cafe is pretty solid too.
There are options to walk on asphalt as well if it is really muddy.

Amazing park – I use it daily.
If you do use it quite often it’s worth getting a membership which is roughly 60 gbp / year for parking.
You can park on the opposite street if close to closing time and still use the park even if it gets dark.
Plenty of spaces for the dogs to run around, big fields and 2 enclosed fields as well if required.

I finally plucked up the courage to drive to Oare Gunpowder Works Country Park today. It is beautiful there and the noise of the birds is great. The ducks came to say hello and made me feel guilty as I had no food for them 😔. Definitely worth the drive, really tranquil and back to nature, so good for the soul. Another bookmark with OWTD ticked off lol. Looking through my bookmarks for our next adventure 🥰

We originally thought that this was a small walk (later realised the country park it was bigger than first thought) but we combined it with a walk along the creek into Faversham. We stopped at the Albion Tavern for lunch (lovely) and then walked back. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk, it was a long walk, glad we stopped for lunch! Thanks for the info

We love Samphire Hoe, such an unusual place and just beautiful. Definitely worth a visit. They also do guided walks every now and then, again worth going on.

Lovely stretch of beach. Cute beach huts in pastel colours looking out onto the sea. We stopped off at Hub on the Beach. Had a large breakfast (which was definitely large) with good sausages and bacon, my husband had a vegetarian breakfast, would definitely recommend and a good price too. Very popular cafe and dog friendly. Well I definitely used my Out With the Dog app on our holiday in Dungeness lol. Such a brilliant website, I was able to find the locations easily, places to park and on top of that cafes to visit that are all dog friendly, taking the stress out of trying to find all these things on my own. Looking forward to our next adventure through OWTD.

Lovely stretch of beach. Nice coastal road drive back to Dungeness too.

We were lucky enough to spend a week in Dungeness. We walked along the boardwalk where there is a bench overlooking the sea at the end of the shingle. The nuclear power station is beautiful in its own way. An Old lighthouse that is definitely worth going up to the top. There is a small art gallery next to it too, worth a look round. Romney Hythe & Dymchurch miniature steam railway is cute, our dog loved it on there. The End of the Line Cafe is a lovely friendly cafe for a coffee. Prospect Cottage (Derek Jarman’s house) definitely worth seeing and it is on the way to the Pilot Inn, had a lovely lunch there, warning the burgers are huge! Dungeness is such a special place and everywhere is dog friendly. Our dog loved it here and has never slept for well after all the lovely walks.

Had a great time, spent hours walking and enjoying the views and the strolls around the lakes, the mobility hire was so easy, and had a break in the middle for coffee and lunch thanks so much for the recommendation will definately go back! X

Comment on The Wheatsheaf Whitstable by OWTD

A great dog friendly pub! We popped in for a quick lunch and the staff made us feel welcome and showed us and the dogs to a table. We ordered via the Green King app and drinks and food came pretty quickly and we really enjoyed our ciabattas which were great value. If your looking for a quieter spot for lunch when visiting Whitstable this is well worth a visit.
