Around 1300 years ago, Hexham was a Viking stronghold. Then as now, pets are embraced by the culture here. Undulating countryside stretches out around the centre of this ancient town, offering you and your pet plenty of space to frolic in. Make your way to the historic market on Tuesday and Saturday, and don't miss a trip to the world-famous Hadrian's Wall with your furry friend.
Alnwick Castle was featured in the Harry Potter series of films, and while you won't find many mythological creatures here, your family pet is welcome to visit the grounds. The gardens are home to one of the world's most extensive tree houses. Afterwards, stop in at one of the numerous country pubs that welcome pets, such as The Black Swan and The Grey's Inn.
Nestled on the coast, surrounded by the famed Farne Islands, Bamburgh is a deservedly famous destination for travellers. Boasting a coastal castle, the celebrated RNLI Grace Darling Museum and myriad seaside hiking trails, it's ideal for holidays together with your family pet. Discover the hiking routes along the coast, where dogs love to swim in the surf, and stop off in a dog-friendly pub together afterwards.
