Look no further. The Lake District is considered a dog's dream owing to the fact it is arguably the best place in the country for freedom and adventure. Although the weather may be a bit ropey this weekend, that shouldn't stop you or your pup from enjoying yourselves.

There are loads of options to suit every dog, from the most active collie to those lazy lumps who like an easy life. Catbells and Latrigg are wonderful small mountains, or Skiddaw and Blencathra pose challenges for more energetic pooches. A loop of Derwentwater Lake is very pleasant, with good paths most of the way around.

There are often farm animals grazing on these walks, and lots of wildlife around, so remember to keep your dog under control at all times. Learn about the history of graphite mining in the local area and the important undercover role the humble pencil played in WW2. Dogs are welcome in the museum on leads and in the outside seating area of the café.

The Puzzling Place is another weird and wonderful dog-friendly attraction in Keswick. Full of mind-bending illusions and wacky optical tricks, you're sure to have plenty of laughs. Your dog is welcome too, though might be confused by the bizarre sights.
