Prior to opening our dog walking and home boarding business,Home From Home, in October 2019, we deer fence and rabbit netted a ½ acre woodland. We called our woodland, the Wild and Woody Wood. It gave us a safe, stimulating and secure place to exercise the dogs within our care.
During the first lockdown of 2020, we were contacted by many people who wanted to privately hire our woodland. They appreciated that our woodland was a safe, stimulating,secure and non-crowded environment to exercise their dogs and also relax themselves!
It became clear to us that there was a demand for a fenced exercise area where owners could bring their dogs, safe in the knowledge that they would all have a safe and enjoyable time together!
We set about creating 2 additional areas in a field adjacent to our Wild and Woody Wood;
- Mutleys Play Park is parallel to our woodland, It is a 1 acre grass area which we have added 9 fun activities.
- Archie’s Freedom Field is our 1 & ½ acre grass field. It has been left bare so that dogs can have oodles of room to run!
- We are excited to be able to offer 3 different areas in total, each with their own individual characters and dimensions.
All our areas are fenced with deer net and have rabbit netting added for additional security, to prevent little snouts popping through our adjoining fences, we have attached double height rabbit netting.
We have created an off street car park, access to our burn for washing muddy paws, a double gated entry/exit system and a reception area within the existing stable.
