Our Pet-Friendly Insider Tips for Dorset

 

As well as all of the wonderful walks and trails to explore, we’ve discovered some of the best activities that welcome dogs in Dorset. You can’t visit Dorset without a trip to the iconic Jurassic Coast, famous for its fossils and wacky landforms. Dorset is home to the iconic Durdle Door rock, a natural arch of hard limestone that looks very impressive from the cliffs and provides a great spot for a doggie photo shoot! Alternatively, take the reins and do a self-drive tour along the Jurassic Coast—a family-friendly adventure with your four-legged companion, allowing you to experience the coast at your own pace, whenever suits your personal group.

 

For a different activity, dogs are welcome on a Lyme Regis Walking Tour which offers a good introduction to the historical background of the town and interesting stories of Lyme’s past.

 

Explore the 1,000 years of history of Corfe Castle and embark on fabulous walks around the ruins that guard the gateway to Purbeck. Situated on a natural hill providing stunning views, enjoy anything from a gentle stroll to a challenging all-day adventure with your canine companion.
