Forest Holidays

Post by gillyb »

We have just returned from 4 days in North Yorkshire at Keldy Forest cabins with Forest Holidays (we booked through Hoseasons). What a fantastic place , it was so dog friendly and some fantastic dog walking trails. Reuben has had a ball, there has been so much going on lots of walks with pheasants, squirells, rabbits :1967: . He has been on the NYMR (his first time on a train) and made lots of friends especially the people with ice-creams :lol: . On Weds we had a day in York so booked Reuben into day kennels (he loves going into kennels, never sends us on a guilt trip :1962: ). The lady said he made a new friend with a Golden Retriever when they had "playtime". Reuben can be quite hard work on the lead sometimes but he has even settled down here this week. He has had a day in Pickering and a morning in Goathland. Unfortunately I haven't got any photos as my camera packed up. The only downside of the holiday was that the kids couldn't get a signal on their mobile phone :bounce: :bounce: and there wasn't any Internet access :( (no lab rescue for a weeK for me!!). We are off to Coquet Cottages in July, can't wait. Will have a camera this time :1945:

Will let you know how we get on.Archie is a lucky boy. Hes only been with us 6 months and has had 3 holidays!

Good to see everyone taking holidays with their dogs and it is lovely to hear everyone's experiences as we too try to have a few holidays in the Uk each year as it is nice to get different ideas.

Hope you have a lovely time in Northumberland Gill, Warkworth has some great beach walks you can walk right up to Alnmouth when the tide is out. My parents nearly always stay in Warkworth when they come up to stay so an area I know very well.
