Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the parking area?

Upon arrival you will pull up to the layby outside the woodland. Please note, this is a public layby therefore there is a limit of 2 cars per booking. 

How do I add a second car to my booking?

Again along as more than 48hours notice given to allow extra admin time to alter booking. You are always welcome to meet a friend etc, just allow plenty of time for arrival and departure, chatting, dogs playing etc. Make sure your entire party are aware of time booked and rules of use so no other bookings are affected.

How secure are the woods?

Only you as the owner can answer that, the woods are enclosed with a 6ft pig stock and chicken wire fence. I always recommend you book 30mins for your first visit if you are not sure, do a walk round with them on the lead or long line. You can assess for yourself and for your dogs needs etc and know to book longer next time. You do need to be in control of your dogs at all times in your booking, long lines available to use should you need. 

What Facilities do you have?

Well, basically Waggy Tail Woods is a woodland. There is no electricity, no lights, no café and no toilets. 

I have a booking but need to reschedule?

This is not a problem at all, to reduce admin and make sure your booking is swapped over quickly. Find another date and time available that suits your schedule and contact with: Name, Current date and time booked and new date and time. More then 48hours notice must be provided to swap over and make the original booking available to others in time. Less then 48hours notice unfortunately cannot be changed.

My dog is never off lead. Can I still use the woods?

You are responsible for your dog(s), the woodland is large enough for your dog to run and play without being too big to loose sight of them. There are always long lines available to give them some freedom if it makes you feel more comfortable.

Do you allow group meet-ups?

Unfortunately no.

Parking spaces are one of the main problem, also people turning up too early and leaving late has affected other bookings. This is not fair on others that use the woods for specific needs. Putting people under pressure to leave or having them wait and their booking times affected isn't what Waggy Tail Woods wants for anyone. Stress free experience for the entire booking is what we want.
