Towcester Veterinary Centre’s summer dog holiday recommendations
June 21, 2021
The UK is full of dog friendly holiday parks and destinations that your whole family can enjoy. However, with a huge increase in tourists expected to land in popular UK hotspots this summer instead of going abroad, it could be time to head somewhere a little different.
Towcester Veterinary Centre’s Burcote Road team has come up with their 5 best holiday destinations to go with dogs in summer 2021, that aren’t in Cornwall or Devon.

Right on the tip of North Wales, Anglesey is a real treat. You and your pup will have over 125 miles of coastal paths to explore.
