TOP DOG-FRIENDLY THINGS TO DO • NOTTINGHAM

Nestled within the Nottinghamshire countryside, the ruins and grounds of this 12th-century Cistercian Monastery make for a perfect family day out.

A proudly dog-friendly destination, you and your pup can get to explore the lush parkland and stunning lakeside walks on offer. With plenty of routes available, it's a place you can go back to time and again until you explore every inch of this verdant country park.
