📍Elemore Park

At the weekend we visited a local spot we've never been before. Elemore Park, on the edge of Hetton-Le-Hole and Easington Lane was stablished on the site of the old Elemore Colliery and golf course, the park is now a haven for wildlife and home to a café and garden centre.

We got there early enough to enjoy a lovely frosty, sunrise, and barely saw a soul. It was perfect for the spaniels as there is so much space, when not iced over there are lakes too.

I will be planning a return visit to sample the cafe and check out the garden centre. Elemore Park Elemore Garden Centre & Coffee Shop

BRRRRR! ❄️❄️❄️

I doubt anyone is escaping the cold spell this week in the UK.
We were kindly sent the new cable knit set from the The Dandy Dog Company , which includes a hat, Scarf, and Hand Warmers. Made from a beautiful thick yarn, this set is so soft, and the scarf is a nice generous size 😍
The hard-warmers are such a nice addition to the set, still giving you the freedom you need when on a dog walk, but with that added warmth for your hands.

I'm wearing the oatmeal, but the set is also available in grey, and with code SPANIELSBYTHESEA10 you can save 10%

Dog walking socks also Dandydog

Normality has resumed..........

Back to work today after a quiet Christmas break. It's so hard getting back into a working routine when you've been off 😅
The spaniels need a rest after lots of walking 🤣

Anyone else back today?

'Where are we going now, mam' 🐶🐾🥾

Featuring a shiny Finndog & a shiny pair of Hothersall in redbrick & black part of the Vibram 365 Collection

It's hard to keep them clean on these wintery dog walks so they've been cleaned and waxed to keep them looking 👌 and ready for our next adventure 🥾

There's loads of great advice on their website for keeping your new boots in tip-top condition 👏

📍Jesmond Dene
We took the spaniels on their first walk through Jesmond Dene in Newcastle.
Walking through the dene, it's hard to believe you're in the middle of a busy city. The dene stretches for over 3km and follows winding trails through woodland and over bridges with plenty of tranquil spots to stop and enjoy the scenery.

🐾 we parked at Benton Bank only 90p an hour.
🐾 follow the trails to Jesmond Falls and the Old Mill
🐾 call in the visitor centre where you can grab a coffee at the Milfield House Cafe, dogfriendly inside. There are facilities here too.
🐾 Visit pets corner, although dogs are not allowed to enter you can still enjoy watching the animals from the path.

We picked a great day to visit as there was a frost covering the ground, making it easy to keep the spaniels clean.

Dates for you and your dog — JANUARY edition

I get it December was lots of fun but extremely busy and expensive.
You’ve eaten your body weight in cheese and you’re ready for a more slower pace.
Long dog walks and healthy dog friendly cafes…if I’m correct then Read on ⬇️

Sunrise walk at the Blast beach in Seaham
Sunrise takes place between 7:59 am and
8:30am this month.
I know this area very well, and you won’t have much phone reception. Pack a picnic and enjoy an unplugged more connected experience with your pup.

Simonside Hill
Northumberland National Park
Blow those cobwebs off and get those steps in!
Enjoy 360 degree views encompassing the Cheviot Hills and North Sea coastline.
Stunning viewpoint
2 walking trails
Moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 2 h 45 min to complete.

We loved watching spanielsbythesea enjoy their cathedral trip

I do love a beach walk this time of year, the beaches are quieter the air is crisp and if you’re wrapped up in your comfy warm dog walking attire then there’s nothing better!
If you’re north of the river head to:
Earthlings - The healing cafe earthlingsthc
94 Buckingham St, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5QR
I mean is there a better named cafe for what people need this time of the year, they offer a fresh, natural organic menu, that will fill you with delicious goodness.

Did you know that some “biodegradable” poo bags take decades to degrade? And even when they do, they degrade into tiny micro-plastics? These micro-plastics are making their way to our oceans and harming our beloved marine life.

FETCH.IT eco-friendly compostable poo bags are made from cornstarch and start to degrade within months into natural elements that aren't harmful to the environment. That's why every few months we stock up on our favourite bags like the Ocean Edition tie handle bags and the classic bags. Both are super strong and large sizes to suit our mulit dog household.

If you ever stay at Brundholme House with , a visit to The Filling Station is a must! Situated just a few yards away, at the end of the street, you'll find all-day breakfasts to cater for everyone's taste. We opted to sit inside with the spaniels and ordered a full English brekkie and eggs benedict with paprika. Swipe for look 👀 It was delicious and perfect for fuelling up before our hike up Catbells 🥾🐾

When in Keswick, you visit the pub.....right?

I wore the Hothersall boots from 365 Vibram Collection most of the weekend. They've not rubbed or gave me blisters, and they look great in the redbrick colour 👍

Also, keeping me warm and toasty is the Beverley waterproof jacket (see the link in my bio)

Willow has managed to keep us very busy over the years. Including eating many pairs of socks and knickers, thankfully, she's grown out of this habit. Bursting the radiator pipe and flooding the kitchen! Having her tail amputated. Splitting her ear open on barb wire. Running into an electric fence. Losing a front tooth. Got a bin lid stuck on her head. Has on many occasions stolen food from the counter and once even jumped on top of my mam's dining table to help herself to the Sunday roast 🤣 and she loves a cup of tea!

Happy 8th birthday, gorgeous girl 🥳

When you ask the spaniels if they think they'll be on the nice list year 🤔
Hoping that their The Dandy Dog Company Rope toy basket will be full of goodies from santapaws 🐾🎅

Please take note of the chewed wooden tag....no need to ask who's fault that is!

What a wonderful Christmas present these would make this year full of toys on Christmas morning for your wonderful pups.
