All Things Dog Secure Fun Fields

All Things Dog sits just outside Wadhurst in Sussex, and it's exactly what the name suggests - a dedicated space where dogs can run about properly without a lead, chase a ball, and be dogs. The fields are secure and fenced, which means you're not spending the whole time worrying they'll bolt after a rabbit. It's the sort of place that makes sense if you're self-catering at Beech Estate Campsite down the road and you've got a dog that's been cooped up in a van for the morning.

This is dog owners' territory, full stop. If you haven't got a canine companion, there's not much to do here. But if you have, it's a proper relief - especially in Sussex where a lot of parks keep dogs on leads. You'll see terriers launching themselves after tennis balls, cockapoos socialising with each other, that whole scene. Allow an hour, maybe more if your dog's the type that needs a good run before it settles.

When you go matters less than having your dog well-trained, since the whole point is off-lead freedom. Weekday mornings tend to be quieter than weekends if that's your preference. Check ahead for admission fees and exact opening hours - the details aren't always straightforward online - but it's worth the short drive from Wadhurst if you need your dog worn out properly.
