Dog-Friendly Days Out

Whether you’re staying in Charlestown or just passing through, you’ll find plenty of dog‑friendly spots where four-legged explorers can roam year‑round. Hemmick Beach is a lovely sandy stretch, located to the west of Dodman Point on the Roseland Peninsula. You’ll find a National Trust car park about a 10-minute walk away, which puts most people off, so you can usually enjoy this beautiful stretch of coast away from the crowds. Get those tails wagging and plan your perfect adventure!
