At Visit Dartmoor we all have our own dogs, and love to share our holidays with them. A family trip away just wouldn’t be the same without your furry four-legged friends; Dartmoor is a superb place to have a holiday with your canine companion, thanks to its variety of dog friendly places to stay, eat and visit.

There are fantastic walks to suit every type of dog and their families, from easy flat walks to hardier and more challenging hikes over hills and tors for the best panoramic views. Some of our bike-hire centres have “dog-chariots” so that older/less fit dogs or simply those with very short legs can enjoy your cycling adventures with you!

Traveling with Families
