Whether you’re in Southwold for the day or visiting on holiday, if you’re a dog owner you’ll know how important it is to involve your four-legged friend in your plans. Luckily, this area offers plenty of dog friendly accommodation, outdoor activities and places to eat or rest weary legs and paws. Here are a few pit-stop suggestions where you and your pooch will be welcomed with open arms.

Dogs can dip their paws in the sea and run to their heart’s content on most of the beaches in Southwold and the surrounding area, however there are some seasonal restrictions in place on parts of more heavily populated beaches.
