   We’ve visited Larches Paw Paddock several times now and it’s hands-down the best dog field we’ve found in the area. The space is huge, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed with loads of enrichment—logs, tunnels, jumps, and even a sandpit. Booking is easy, and I love that it’s completely private—no stress about other dogs or distractions. The fencing is super secure, and the double-gated entry gives real peace of mind. There’s fresh water, shaded seating, and even a toilet on site. It’s clear the owners genuinely care about dogs and their experience. Everything feels safe, clean, and welcoming. We always leave with a happy, very tired pup and a big smile. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, joyful space to let their dog run free.

   Our two dogs love coming here. They have space to play without judgement (Ridgeback play looks terrifying to others!) and enjoy the tunnels, climbing obstacles and digging pit. The paddocks are well maintained and clearly created by people who know dogs. Customer service is always prompt and friendly. Can't recommend enough!

   Great place to take your dog for a bit of free running. They've got 2 fields. After the rain it's muddy - especially around the entry gate so make sure to take wellies. A hose is available to clean your dog as well as poo bags and a bowl with water.

   Another great visit to Larches......our dog loves it ! A brilliant place to take your dog, take off their lead and let them go nuts !! Well planned, well thought out and we'll equipped. Had pretty much everything your dog would need to have fun - and all in a safe, clean environment. We've already booked several more sessions just a shame the darker evenings are coming and the time slots are reducing..

   Great secure field, well kept, clean, good fencing, lots of fun features but also plenty of space for zoomies! Tyres, weave poles, lovely grassy bank with tunnels, huge sandpit, logs to climb on, an area with longer grass, paddling pools and a sensory garden /herbs. Also a fab shelter, bench, poo bags and a poo bin. Nice to have a peaceful place to walk my dog. Thank you.

   Took our 6 year old rescue lad for the 1st time this weekend to try his recall as he's never been walked off the lead. He absolutely loved it! Place was clean and tidy, he ran round for the full 50 mintues and he's been asleep all the rest the evening. Highly recommend this place if you have a reactive dog or just want a safe secure place for training. Thank you Larches, you'll see us again soon!!

   This is a great, safe & secure place to exercise your dog. We have been twice now & its nice to let our Cocker Spaniel puppy run free without worries. The owners have provided various obstacles, tunnels, sand pits & paddling pools for your dog to explore. There is a little hut to protect the humans from the wind & a portaloo if you need it.

   This place is absolutely fantastic and a great place to take your furry children to give them the freedom to be off lead. Our Jack Russell had so much fun sprinting around the field, playing in the sand pit, running through the tunnels, and jumping through the tyres. Some tennis balls are provided if you happen to forget your own and there dog waste bins on site. There is also a toilet cubicle just outside the entrance to the field. We’ll definitely be making it a regular trip, especially after our pup had such a lovely time.
