Hampton Court Palace Gardens

Whilst dogs are not allowed in the Palace itself, in the formal gardens or the maze, They are allowed (as long as they are kept on lead) in a fairly large part of the Palace Gardens.  You CAN take your dog into the rose garden, The Tiltyard, The wilderness and the courtyard at the front of the Palace. The best bit is there is no admission fee for the dog friendly areas. 

The Tiltyard is the perfect place for a picnic, or if you don't fancy a picnic, you can visit The Tiltyard Cafe. Dogs are not allowed inside the cafe but you can sit in the terrace with your furry friend. 

In the wilderness there is woods, shrubs and long grass areas to explore. There is also a little kiosk selling drinks and ice cream
