Holiday in Dorset: 4 Fun Things You Can Do With Your Dog in Dorset
If you're looking for a wonderful travelling companion on your next trip, look no further than your dog. According to a survey, a third of British pet owners take their pets with them on holiday, and 30% of respondents said that they base their holiday destination and activities on how suitable they are for their pet. Thinking about going on a holiday with your dog for the weekend? Then check out Dorset, which boasts attractions, towns, and dog-friendly businesses which you and your pet will enjoy. Here are some of the fun things that you can do with your dog in Dorset.



Go to the beach
Exploring Dorset and all its attractions will be a treat for you and your pet as it features some of the best weather in the country. It also has miles and miles of sandy beaches where you and your dog can have a frolic. Some beaches allow dogs all year round, such as West Bay, Chesil Beach and Durley Chine. You and your pet can take long walks along the shore or simply enjoy the sun and fresh air while you sunbathe.

Visit a pub while you stay at a dog-friendly hotel
There are several pubs in Dorset where both you and your dog are welcome to get a bite to eat. Some even offer accommodation for your pet.

Visit a mysterious stone circle
If you appreciate prehistoric monuments such as Stonehenge, then you and your dog should visit the Kingston Russell Stone Circle. Also known as the Gorwell Circle, this attraction that dates to the early Bronze Age features 18 fallen stones on a picturesque hilltop overlooking Abbotsbury and the sea. You and your pet can take a walk or have a picnic there, but make sure to keep your dog on a lead while you're in the area.

Go camping
Dorset features a number of dog-friendly campgrounds and caravan parks.

Try doing some or all of these fun things with your pet the next time you visit Dorset. You and your canine companion will have the best holiday that you'll remember for the rest of your life.
