Doglife 2019 (Optimised)

Willen Lake
Brickhill Street, Milton Keynes, MK15 0DS
This really is the place to go if you want to enjoy a day
out with the family. As well as lots of places your dog
can jump in and out of the lake around the circular
route, there’s also plenty for the little ones too. With
a large children’s play park, treetop assault course,
not to mention water sports for the more adventurous,
there’s certainly something for the whole family to
enjoy. Finish up at the bar where you can sit outside
and enjoy something to eat as you watch the little
ones feeding the ducks. www.willenlake.org.uk
Priory Country Park
Barkers Lane, Bedford, MK41 9DJ
Just a stone’s throw from the busy town of Bedford, it’s
hard to believe this calm oasis exists a short distance
away from such an urban area. Head for the spot
known as “the beach”, which is shallow enough for
your dog to wade in and swim if they’re comfortable.
You can kick back and relax on this sandy area with
a picnic while your four-legged friend frolics in the
water.

Southern Country Park
Thorley Lane East, Bishop’s Stortford, CM23 4BH
Green flag award-winning Southern Country Park
is a lovely place to explore with your dog, made
simple with the help of their interactive map. Why not
challenge your dog and yourself and have a go on
the purpose built agility course? Wind down with a
stroll around the lake, which is also used for fishing.
Do take care if anglers are there and your dog wants
to swim, and be respectful of the local wildlife!
