At Welbeck Dog Park, we have two purpose-built enclosed dog playfields with safe and secure fencing, shelters, water troughs, and seating areas. Shire Paddocks has a range of equipment for your dog to run and exercise. The Gallops is a tree-sheltered space for your dog to explore without equipment.Â
Our secured spaces allow your dog to explore freely in the grass and shade of the trees without the usual worries or concerns that go with having your dog off-lead.Â
The Dog Park is located at the start of the Harley Art Trail, through the Courtyard gate at the end of the Harley Gallery and across the controlled crossing. It is open daily from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Closed Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and Easter Sunday. Advanced booking is essential. No walk-in bookings are available. Parking is free and is located in the main car park, a 1 - 2 minute walk away from the dog fields.
During your visit, you can exclusively use the field you booked for 55 minutes. Timeslots start on the hour. We kindly ask guests to clean up before leaving the field and ensure the gate is closed and locked when vacating. Please do not leave your dog(s) unattended while visiting our dog park.
