ad. Camera roll from a cosy dog friendly Cotswolds weekend getaway 🫶 Our absolute favourite time of year to explore the area we call home and such a great time visit some of the more popular spots as it gets so much quieter. Below are some of our recommendations! Stay:@swan_inn_ascott was such a perfect base for us and is the most gorgeous pub with rooms. All rooms are dog friendly and beautifully decorated (we’ve made a reel all about our stay).Eat: 🍽️ @swan_inn_ascott for seasonal dinners and regularly changing specials, plus the fireplace of dreams in the bar area 😍🍽️ @thechequerschurchill is the sister pub of the Swan just down the road in the gorgeous village of Churchill. It’s a popular dinner spot - we had a very tasty (and very large!) meal here one night and left with very full and happy tummies!☕️ Head into Stow or Burford for coffee, some of our favourites are @stowtowncoffee , @lynwoodandco @otis_and_belle @thecotswoldfarm_ 🍔 Don’t miss the burgers at @smiths_of_bourton, a delicious dog friendly burger place in Bourton that is worth a try!What to do:🚜 Clarkson’s Farm fan? The Swan is in easy distance of all three locations, with @diddlysquat.farmshop just up the road, The @thefarmersdogpub just 10 minutes away and @hawkstonearms a little further (but much quieter - see more below!)🐾 Walk the circuit between Lower Slaughter, Upper Slaughter and Bourton on the Water. One of our favourite circuits to see some of the prettiest villages. Conveniently @hawkstonearms is next to the route, as is @smiths_of_bourton ! 🌳 Dogs on leads are welcome at @batsforda which is gorgeous in autumn as the leaves start to turn 🍁 We’ve put together more of our favourite things to do in the Cotswolds on our website, link in bio!#dogsonholiday #travelwithdogs #ukstaycation #dogfriendlytravel #dogfriendlycotswolds

Postcards from a long weekend in Northumberland 🐾I’ve written a full (and very detailed!) dog friendly 4 day itinerary post with links to walks on my website, but here’s a quick run down of our favourite spots from an incredible trip a few weeks ago!

Stay:Self catered: Findara Cottage at @a_life_less_ordinary_project incredible interiors, in easy reach of all of our favourite beaches.Hotel: @lord_crewe_arms in Blanchland - great food, lovely rooms in the most beautiful village.Eat:@barnatbeal @thejollyfisherman @blackbulllowick @scottsofalnmouth @pilgrimscoffeehouse Visit:🏖️ Cheswick Sands🏖️Bamburgh and Budle Bay🛶 Holy Island of Lindsifarne🏰Craster and Dunstanburgh Castle🌳Cragside House 🌲Kielder ForestHappy travels!

With lots of sunshine on the way, we’re dreaming

With lots of sunshine on the way, we’re dreaming of another weekend on Anglesey. Here are some of our top dog friendly picks 👇Eat:@melinllynon is home to Wales’ last working windmill and an absolute must visit for their Mônuts - I’m really not a doughnut fan but these were INSANE. Get there early, they do sell out! @dylansrestaurants in Menai Bridge was a fab dog friendly spot on the waterfront with a really varied menu for brunch, lunch and dinner.@cafe.notos in Rhosneigr was a brunch favourite, super dog friendly with treats on tap and a short walk to one of our favourite beaches. Visit:🏖️ Traeth Crigyll and Traeth Llydan - lovely sandy beaches - dog friendly all year round, the dogs loved the sand dunes too! 🌲 Newborough - stunning pine forest and one of the nicest beaches we’ve ever visited, with incredible views over to Snowdonia. Look out for dog restrictions on a section of the beach May - September. 🏝️Ynys Llandwynn - a must visit and highlight of our trip! Lots of little hidden beaches, incredible views and dog friendly all year round (but on leads during ground nesting bird season).🥾Parys Mountain - an unexpected highlight of our trip. An ancient copper mine that feels like stepping onto Mars! Swimming spots for the dogs and a network of easy footpaths. 🐾 You’re so close to Snowdonia it’s easy to pop to Aber Falls en route to Anglesey or on your return journey - a stunning and easily accessible waterfall. Stay:@wildheartescapes was our base (previous pr stay). A selection of dog friendly cottages, perfectly located a few minutes from Menai Bridge with their own private woodland for the dogs to enjoy plus dedicated secure dog exercise area. There’s so much more to see on this island, we can’t wait to return! Where should we visit next?!

I thought it would be nice to share some of our favourite places we’ve shown her over the past year.

10 sunrises in January ✅At the beginning of the month, I set myself a goal to get outside for 10 sunrises through the month. No crazy challenges or restrictive resolutions; just me, my dogs and the outdoors. Even though the weather hasn’t always played ball, it’s amazing how good it’s been for my brain just getting up on the hills for a bit of fresh air and exercise 🫶We ended on a high this morning on top of the beautiful Malvern Hills. It’s always a punt leaving in the pitch black and praying for clear tops, especially as this is further to drive to than my usual sunrise walks! Thankfully it paid off ✨Let me know in the comments how you’ve combatted the January blues 👇
