Baxter's Dog Friendly Aberdovey Guide

Baxter’s Aberdovey Guide!

Baxter the Cocker Spaniel - Loves Aberdovey Beach!

Walking

Not to state the obvious but the beach is the best! They just have so much space to roam and play and it is so nice and quiet this time of year you nearly have it to yourself – we just walk walk walk until our older one looks like he is tired.

Aberdovey Walking Guide This page gives you a few of the best walks in the local area.

 
Aberdyfi Panorama  – this is the route we do the most!
This gentle four mile walk soon gets you up above Aberdyfi, enjoying fine views over the mouth of the Dyfi estuary and south towards Borth and Aberystwyth.

Weatherman Walking - have done this too but bit further to go
Derek Brockway enjoys exploring the countryside around the Dyfi estuary

If you venture further out – we do part of the coastal path walk (The Mawddach Trail) so we drive out to Morfa Mawddach train station, park up and then walk over the wooden railway bridge over into Barmouth, again beach is dog friendly and we tend to grab a bite to eat at the last inn which is again dog friendly and nice sandwiches etc

http://www.mawddachtrail.co.uk/ there is also some bigger walks linked at the bottom of this website if you want to venture out further but aberdovey is nice as it is so no real need to venture too far!

New Precipice Walk

Dovey Guide

Eating and Drinking

Pub wise – Dovey Inn and Penhelig Arms both allow dogs in the bar areas / we tend to opt for Penhelig, they are both Brains pubs but dovey more standard pub grub and pen is bit more gastro pub?!

Get the boys a doggy yoggi from the ice cream shop, and yourself one too, human ice cream that is!

Out and about

Another nice drive, not far beautiful scenery is Tal-y-llyn Lake and the Tyn-y-cornel Hotel allows dogs in their lake facing lounge and do a nice lunch, and there will be walks around this area too.

From the Midlands you can do this route to drive to Aberdovey or to get home as the journey is exactly the same time going this way as an alternative to going through Machynlleth.
