Dog-friendly Norfolk travel guide

Why choose a dog-friendly holiday in Norfolk?

Norfolk is one of the UK’s best spots for a dog-friendly escape. With its huge sandy beaches, peaceful waterways and charming market towns, it’s perfect for pups who love wide-open space.

Start your day with a run along the dog-friendly stretches of Holkham, Wells-next-the-Sea or Winterton, where the sand seems to go on forever. Explore the beautiful Norfolk Coast Path, wander through pretty villages like Blakeney and Burnham Market, or enjoy a scenic stroll around the Broads. Many attractions welcome dogs too, including heritage railways, nature reserves and National Trust estates, so you’re sorted for tail-wagging days out.

When it’s time to unwind, Norfolk offers everything from cosy countryside cottages to stylish coastal boltholes, with dog-friendly pubs and cafés around every corner. Whether you’re after beach days, boat trips or big open walks, Norfolk has all the ingredients for an unforgettable break with your four-legged friend.
