A spectacular day out for dogs and humans https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ Goodwoof , where do I start? What a day! We woke up to glorious weather so headed out early to make the most of it. When we arrived, the parking was well signposted and marshalled which made it a breeze and the same for collecting our tickets from the main gates. We were then met with friendly smiles from the welcoming gate staff, checked through and continued to walk through the estate to the event ( approx 20 minutes) There is also a bark and ride bus service available. https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ First stop the Jelly Cat dog hotel where we checked in and became the proud new owners of two limited edition golden pups and had some great photo opportunities. We excitedly proceeded on to visit the Wild at heart foundation stand, which was the chosen charity partner for this year and listened to the stories of how Nikki and her team work tirelessly to improve the well being of vulnerable free-roaming and abandoned dogs to ensure they receive the help and care they deserve. https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ On her stand she had an incredible artist Sophie Stock who was sketching Goodwoof dogs for the day so we just had to get involved and think you will agree that her portrait of Custard is just amazing. https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ After a quick walk through the Petplan snuffle garden and a spin on the prize wheel we decided to take a walk through the shady woodland area and discover the crystal healer where we were given some beautiful calming crystals.  They also had a pet medium and a dog tarot card reader. https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ The zen den was our next stop presented by Kong where you are given a Kong to fill with a variety of foods from the tables to enjoy in the area with soft cushions and relaxing areas provided . What a treat. Through to the literary corner next to listen to the wonderful Hugh Bonneville and his chats about Paddington and Downton abbey - he really was a delight. https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ We couldn't resist visiting the tattoo parlour to get our temporary tattoo souvenir to enjoy for days to come. After lunch we watched some dogs having a groom at the grooming parlour and listened to some music by the Goodwood symphony orchestra then had a look at the Barkitecture area. For the final part of our day we decided to visit and admire the sheepdog trials and browse the Goodwoof games and lastly dip Custard's paws into fidos lido to cool off after his exciting day. There is so much to see and do at Goodwoof we hope you enjoyed reading about our time spent there. https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ Here's a quick round up of what we noticed around the event that made a day out with our dog so easy and fun.  ⭐️ large bowls of water available throughout the areas and lots of water filling stations. ⭐️plenty of bins available ⭐️ excellent toilet facilities ⭐️a wide variety of food and drink vendors ⭐️a suitable amount of shopping ⭐️lots of shady spots and undercover areas ⭐️off lead area ⭐️always a friendly event team member on hand to help Thank you so much Goodwoof for a wonderful day, we will definitely see you next year for more fun . https://www.instagram.com/custard_and_cream_the_golden/ GOODWOOF GOODWOOF2025 GOODWOOF2026 DOG EVENTS DOG FESTIVALS

A super dog friendly cafe in Bloomsbury We recently visited the dog friendly shopping area of The Brunswick Centre and were delighted to discover a great place to dine with your dog . Riding House Bloomsbury is a fantastic place for refreshments during your shopping trip. The large space is a cross between a New York loft apartment and botanical garden house, with huge windows letting in natural light. They also have a large covered area outside on the Brunswick Centre concourse. You can read more about the centre here. I was made to feel very welcome with treats on offer the moment I arrived and a fresh bowl of water delivered to the table for me. The menu is quite large and varied and they also have a monthly set meu with 3 courses for £28. The human devoured a plate of pasta accompanied by a delicious mocktail.

A Pawsome Day at Pawfest!   Baxter and I had a great time at Pawfest, held at the beautiful Betteshanger Park in Kent.   We started the day with a visit to Dogiko, where Baxter was offered a wellness puppuccino. It was a lovely little treat, with some of their digestion supplements added in. Baxter absolutely loved it!   Next, we joined the woodland walk, where Baxter had the chance to explore peaceful forest trails and meet some new Beagle friends. Seeing him happily trotting alongside others, sniffing around, and enjoying the natural surroundings was such a joy.   After the walk, we made our way to the experience zone. Baxter impressed me by navigating Temptation Alley with such focus, he ignored the tempting toys and treats and came straight to me! Then, during the scentwork, he quickly found the hidden rabbit ear, showing off his love for using his nose.   Feeling a little peckish, I treated myself to a cookie and Baxter to a pupcake from The Acre Kitchen. The cookie was soft and delicious, and Baxter’s pupcake looked almost too cute to eat – but he didn’t hesitate! We both really enjoyed our treats.   We made sure to visit the wellness zone, where we took part in a canine massage workshop hosted by the Canine Rehab Co. I learned a few different massage techniques and must have been doing it right, as Baxter visibly relaxed! Then, we tried dog yoga, hosted by Chloe. Baxter kept close while I practiced my stretches and enjoyed some time on the mat with me.   Pawfest really lived up to its promise. It was a day filled with sniffing, exploring, learning, chilling, and most importantly bonding with your dog. We left feeling happy, refreshed, and grateful for the chance to share such a special day together

Walkies in the Chilterns with Baxter https://www.instagram.com/baxter.beagle.2021/ A Tail-Wagging Adventure at Wendover Woods ! Baxter and I (along with a few of his best pals) had a great time exploring Wendover Woods and taking part in their Forest Walkies trail featuring Wallace & Gromit. https://www.instagram.com/baxter.beagle.2021/ We headed straight to the Information Centre when we arrived and picked up our adorable Forest Walkies activity tote bags, which included matching bandanas for the dogs! Once everyone was kitted out and looking extra stylish, I quickly downloaded the OS Maps app to help us navigate the trail. It made it super easy to find all the activity panels hidden along the route.  https://www.instagram.com/baxter.beagle.2021/ We made our way through the woods, ticking off all the activities and playing little games along the way. https://www.instagram.com/baxter.beagle.2021/ There were plenty of great spots for photo opportunities — and let’s be honest, when the dogs are looking that adorable, you have  to snap a few (or a hundred) photos! https://www.instagram.com/baxter.beagle.2021/ Once we completed the trail, we all headed over to the Wendover Woods Café for some well-deserved refreshments. We had coffee and a bacon bap for the humans, tasty treats for the pups, and lots of happy faces all round. It was the perfect day filled with wagging tails, happy pups, and so many fun moments. A couple of helpful notes: Dogs are allowed off lead, but they must be kept close and in sight at all times. We didn’t spot any poo bins on the trail itself, but there are some by the Café and Information Centre, so plan accordingly!

Walkies with Benny in this Cheadle Park https://www.instagram.com/benny__beaglier/ Abney Hall Park is situated in Cheadle. The park areas surround a Victorian house built in 1847. https://www.instagram.com/benny__beaglier/ The Hall is no longer open to the public but is used as offices. However, it's lovely to look at and think about it running back in the day and what it must have been like. It's very grand. https://www.instagram.com/benny__beaglier/ The grounds are open to wander and are stunning. They make for wonderful long weekend walks with multiple pathways around orchards and ponds, steps and even a waterfall hidden away. https://www.instagram.com/benny__beaglier/ It's a great place to roam and get lost in the beauty of nature. There are even cows grazing, which Benny enjoyed looking at. We're excited to add it to our regular walking spot list.  Abney Hall Park Manchester Road Cheadle Stockport SK8 2PD Parking There are 2 free car parks within the park. Train Gatley Railway Station and East Didsbury Railway Station are 1500 metres away from the park. Visit National Rail for the latest train times and information.

Dog friendly bakery and cafe in Manchester @rambo_french_bulldog Located in The Northern Quarter in Manchester  Gooey is a must visit and you don't just need to take my word for it, you can also take Lizzo's and Jay Rayners! You will also find a queue of people outside waiting to try the delicious sandwiches, donuts, cookies and more. If you want to not wait then quieter times on a weekday won't require you to wait for long. @rambo_french_bulldog The food - Can I give it a 12/10? The Egg Sando is the BEST egg sandwich I have ever eaten and I think about it a lot, talk about it to people and, work out when I can go back for it again. Oh, and the hash browns - amazing! The sandwich would have been enough but I couldn't go another visit without trying them and they lived up to my expectations. @rambo_french_bulldog Of course we also have to talk about the cookies and donuts. I first discovered them when they were only being sold from a hatch in Ducie Street Warehouse. The chocolate filled donut is my go to (yes I 've had that many I have a go to now) I will also admit that when Rambo takes me there sometimes I don't fight him and use his as the reason to get the donut! @rambo_french_bulldog Puppuccinos and treats - available making Rambo very happy The staff - so friendly and welcoming to Rambo and now know him as we can't just walk past without Rambo trying to push in the queue. To summarise Gooey is a must if you live or a visiting Manchester with your dog. Gooey have multiple locations in Manchester: Northern Quarter - 103 High St, Manchester M4 1HQ Kiosk - Ducie Street Warehouse, Manchester M1 2TP Selfridges - Trafford Centre DOG FRIENDLY MANCHESTER DOG FRIENDLY BAKERY MANCHESTER DOG FRIENDLY CAFE MANCHESTER

A Sandy Pawed Adventure at Mersea Island with Baxter the Beagle @baxter.beagle.2021 If there’s one thing Baxter and I both love, it’s discovering new places together — especially the kind where he can run wild, sniff absolutely everything, and (most importantly) sneak in a cheeky snack or two. Last weekend, we headed to Mersea Island for a proper day out with friends, and it ticked all the boxes. @baxter.beagle.2021 We started off with lunch at Mersea Barns, which is super dog friendly. There’s a lovely garden area for sunny days, a cosy glass room for when the weather’s being a bit… British, and even a shop selling toys, treats, and emergency poop bags (because let’s be honest, we’ve all forgotten them at least once). Naturally, we grabbed a table in the garden to soak up the sunshine. I ordered food while Baxter settled in on his mat, happily chomping on a chew and watching the world go by. @baxter.beagle.2021 As for the food? Incredible. Fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. Safe to say, the boys were throwing some serious side-eye while we tucked in — but not a crumb was shared! @baxter.beagle.2021 With full bellies and wagging tails, we set off to explore the east side of the island. We wandered through wide open farmer’s fields, followed the stunning North Coastal Path, meandered through East Mersea Flats Nature Reserve, and finally arrived at the beach — hands down our favourite part of the day. @baxter.beagle.2021 What really sets Mersea Island apart? The beaches are dog-friendly all year round  — no summer restrictions, no awkward signs, just endless freedom for the pups to run, dig, and paddle to their heart’s content. Baxter definitely made the absolute most of it! @baxter.beagle.2021 After all that excitement, we decided it was ice cream o’clock. We made our way to the west side of the island and stopped off at the Seaview Beach Diner. While dogs aren’t allowed inside, there’s plenty of outdoor seating, and even a doggy menu! Baxter devoured a puppuccino while I happily got stuck into a Mersea Flurry. @baxter.beagle.2021 Before heading home, we squeezed in one last wander along the beach past the colourful huts, where we found a brilliant old boat wreck — the perfect spot for a few final photos. Mersea Island has everything we look for in a dog-friendly day out: fantastic food, beautiful walking routes, proper beach vibes, and a warm welcome for pups at every stop. We’re already planning our next visit.
