Good afternoon all

I am looking for recommendations for CLs within a 100mile radius of Lincoln with great walks with dogs direct from site.

Easy enough I suppose but always good to work off a recommend.

Thanks in advance

    Take a look at College Farm in Alkborough village, brilliant walks direct from Site along the River Trent and Humber Estuary. Great Site, lovely owners, surprising amount to do and see in the area.

    Try Priestfield Grange Farm, Old Brampton, Chesterfield. Direct access through the owner's fields to Linacre Lakes, easy driving distance to Longhaw and Chatsworth estates. On the bus route between Chesterfield and Bakewell.

    Another lovely CL, within your 100 radius is Ashfield Caravan Site in Lockton on the North Yorkshire Moors. Footpath adjacent will take you as far as you want to go, right to Levisham if you don’t mind a lung busting climb or two! Or walk through village, cross main road across Moors and you pick up another bridle path that will take you into Dalby Forest. Stunning location.

    You would be hard pressed to find a CL in the heart of the peak District, say from Castleton down to Ashbourne that didn't have a walk direct from site. I've just had a quick check of the dog friendly sites under Buxton and of the 6 I have stayed at 4 of them and found a walk on P.Fs that are either good enough in their own right or lead you onto a "Dale" that is.

    I have stayed at a few that come under Ashbourne, such as Brundcliffe Farm, that has access to the High Peak trail plus PFs from site. I would suggest you read the reviews of sites in this area as anyone with a dog usually mentions walks.

    Derbyshire Dales, or Yorkshire Dales. If you visit either with a dog, be aware their are lots, and I mean lots of sheep everywhere. Fabulous walking though. 

    There are hundreds of very good CLs to enjoy with dogs. Some have very good dog walks. Top tip I can give is decide on area to visit, then use an OS map that will give you all the footpaths and bridleways and how they link up, terrain they cover, if you can do a nice circular walk.

    Flamborough/Bridlington falls within your 100 miles request. The following C.L. couldn't be better for dog walking. You walk out of the C.L., turn left on a path that leads directly to the coast path. Turn right for Sewerby Hall and Brid or right for a nice long walk to Flamborough lighthouse and seabird cliffs. All off road.
