Florence’s Field

A well-maintained, fully enclosed dog field with secure, lockable gates and high fences. The park offers a range of activities for dogs, including agility equipment, sand and water play areas, a paddling pool, and plenty of toys such as balls and throwers. There are shaded seating areas and shelters for visitors, drinking water and bowls for dogs, as well as bins and spare doggy poo bags provided. The space is considered large for most users, although a few mention it’s on the smaller side compared to some fields, but still offers plenty of room for running and play. The park is easy to book, with helpful and communicative management, and parking is available. It caters well to dogs with recall issues, nervous dogs, and those needing solo play. The field can be muddy after rain, and a hose is available for cleaning dogs.
