Dogs Welcome
Eastnor Castle is very proud to be a Dogs Welcome tourist attraction and one of the few stately homes where dogs are welcome into its grounds and house.
If they are on a lead, your dog is welcome to wander with you when you visit, and every owner is offered dog waste bags on arrival. There is also a dedicated ‘Dogs-Off-Leads Area’ where dogs are free to run amongst the trees!
“Just got back from our day out and I can safely say it’s now one of my fave places. Brilliant for kids & so dog friendly too. So many things to see and activities to do, we will definitely be returning soon!”
