Show Information

This shorter walk through two small fields before entering our stunning 15 acre hay field, named as during the summer months, we cut the hay for the horses. The field during the Winter months is very dry and there is a natural track around the perimeter of short grass, perfect for the smallest of dogs.

We have a railway embankment high on one side of this field, with the odd train, but there are thick hedgerows, brambles with wire fencing and the embankment is a very steep incline. The views around the hay field are stunning, and in the Summer months when the hay is growing, there are so many rare birds, butterflies and lots of wildflowers to spot. We do not use any pesticides on our hay field.

These 30 minute slots are available at the moment during daylight hours, weekdays, between 1.30-4.30pm, and will increase to 5pm in February, If demand increases, then we will also introduce two evening weekday walks as the evenings get lighter. The slot is your time and you may bring one other person with a dog for a socially distanced walk. No more than 4 dogs on this walk at any time please.

There is a dog waste bin provided for you in by the Hayfield gate, and by the clubhouse on your return.
A google map with the route will be emailed to you before your first visit. Please arrive 10 minutes before your booked walk, and one of the Swallowfield Team will meet and greet you socially distanced, and you will be pointed in the right direction.
You may pick up a map and a couple of dog waste bags too if you have forgotten.
