Killington Lake in the Lake District, and Telford in Shropshire, have been named the best motorway service stations – for motorists travelling with their dogs this Christmas.
Oxford services on the M40, Reading services on the M4, and Tebay services on the M6, in Penrith, Cumbria, also ranked in the top five pit stops that are best for dog-friendly facilities.
It comes as a poll of 1,852 dog owners revealed they plan to travel an average of 111 miles with their pooch this Christmas, to go and celebrate the festivities with loved ones.
