Think of golden sands and crisp blue waters where dogs can take a refreshing dip or walk along the headland.

Our Dog-Friendly Insider Tips for Scotland

 

For beach lovers, Westport Beach in Argyll is a fabulous dog-friendly coastal walk if you’re staying in Argyll and Bute. The six-mile-long stretch of sand is situated just in front of the beautiful Machrihanish Dunes. This beach is extremely popular with dog walkers, and we can see why!

 

Drumlanrig Castle in Dumfries and Galloway is another lovely choice for a day out where you can bring your dog along. The 17th-century castle is situated in the Queensberry Estate complete with acres of country park and Victorian gardens for your pup to play in.

 

And of course, the Cairngorms National Park in the heart of Scotland is a must-visit.
