A DOGS

#AdventureInLancashire A while ago my humans decided to book a short break in Lancashire and guess what? I was invited along too!

The Golden Ball of Longton

must admit I was expecting to be put in the worst room, with lots of waiting outside or being left in my bed, while my humans ate out and did lots of fun things, but the folks in Lancashire are genuinely lovely people and I was treated like a VIP (very important pet).

First thing was to book a hotel that would make me feel as welcome as the humans. There were lots of fancy looking places to stay, from luxury glamping to gorgeous boutique hotels or secluded self-catering, which would guarantee me lots of lovely new sniffing adventures. We finally settled on dog friendly Mowbreck Holiday Park. It seemed like forever waiting to pack up and head out, and when the day eventually came, I was so excited I couldn’t settle in the car, so my humans decided this would be a good excuse to stop off at Gisburn Forest and stretch their legs. An excellent choice by them as I loved it, with so much to explore and the hills were great to run down. All that running was hungry work, so we decided to stop off for lunch at The Golden Ball of Longton. Not sitting outside for me! I was given a treat on arrival and a bed to rest my paws in, although I didn’t rest long before the delicious scent of food filled my nostrils, and guess what? It was for me! Not just leftovers, but my very own doggy meal 56 |

from the dog menu, it was so tasty, I wish we could come here all the time. With full bellies and happy hearts, we headed for an afternoon on the beach at St Annes. We don’t get to go to the beach a lot, so I was very excited! My humans had arranged for us to rent a St Annes Beach Hut, which all well behaved doggies, which I am, are allowed in. It was great to chill out and get the occasional snuggle but I much preferred being out on the beach where I could dig, run and play frisbee! I even met some new friends and got the chance to splash in the sea with them. Totally worn out, we finally headed to Mowbreck Holiday Park, and it really was fabulous. Lots of grass and woodlands to explore and ALL the staff loved me and promised lots of good walkies in the area. The caravan was lovely and spacious, with two big decking areas to sunbathe on. All that exploring was tiring work, so I went to find my bed to rest my paws and catch some sleep before another busy day tomorrow.
