Kent is the perfect destination for dog-friendly days out and short breaks, with beautiful beaches, countryside walks and welcoming attractions waiting to be explored together. There's no need to leave your four-legged friend behind when discovering the Garden of England.

Enjoy coastal strolls, woodland adventures and scenic walking routes before stopping at one of Kent's many dog-friendly pubs and cafés. Across the county, attractions are also opening their doors to canine visitors, making it easier than ever to plan memorable days out.

Explore the grounds of Canterbury Cathedral, wander through Riverhill Himalayan Gardens, discover Penshurst Place, or enjoy a visit to Tonbridge Castle, all with your dog by your side. During summer, Castle Farm's stunning lavender fields provide the perfect backdrop for a tail-wagging adventure.

When one day isn't enough, extend your stay in one of Kent's many dog-friendly hotels, cottages or countryside retreats. With so many pet-friendly experiences on offer, Kent is the ideal destination for a getaway the whole family can enjoy.
