With countless hills and fells to scale, the Lake District is a dog-walking heaven. Myriad trails and footpaths criss-cross the dramatic landscape here, often skirting around the glassy waters of the region’s 16 lakes, and plenty of its towns and villages will welcome you and your dog for hearty lunches to fuel your wanderings.
Even when the weather’s not playing ball – and, let’s face it, it rains a fair amount in the Lakes (and the UK in general) – there are dog-friendly indoor attractions to enjoy, such as the surprisingly entertaining Derwent Pencil Museum in Keswick.
