A Dog Lover’s Guide to Scotland

Scotland is a wonderfully dog-welcoming place to live or visit. Right to roam laws give us access to some of the most spectacular countryside for walks, and for warming up afterwards most traditional pubs welcome doggie patrons. With the rise in dog ownership many holiday accommodation providers, cafés, shops and tourist attractions have become dog friendly. So when considering a holiday or a day out in Scotland you no longer need to look for someone to look after your dog while you are gone. Bring the dog along.

Any time of year is a good time to travel around Scotland, and the winter season brings a time of calm. This is a time for slow travel: a few hours or days in one place, with time to explore. Your dog already knows this, so join them in discovering the simple pleasures of a whole morning or afternoon on a slow walk, then a warming meal, an evening by the fire and a night in a cosy bed.
