A very muddy and foggy walk on Leckhampton Hill this morning, so no view, not that I noticed. Mum apparently struggled staying up right in the mud, don’t know what her problem is, she should have my extra long legs and four leg drive and she would be fine!! #muddywalks #colliecross #leckhamptonhill #fourlegsarebetterthantwo #winterdogswalks #whatnoview

A New Years Days walk in Pittville Park followed by treats at Boston Tea Room. No blue skies unfortunately but at least it wasn’t raining #newyearsdaywalk #pitvillepark #blowawaythecobwebs #bostontearoom #nobrollyneeded

After a very hectic Christmas I have peaked too early at the New Years Eve party I am at and I am fast asleep on the sofa. Happy New Year to you all 💕🐶🎶 xx #happynewyear #tootired #partiedout #overtired #2020

He’s behind you!! Dodging the showers for a Christmas Eve walk followed by coffee and cake for the fur-parents.. I was even allowed inside the fabulous Leaf & Ground.. Fur-parents are always eating at the moment. You would think it is a special time of year??
I hope they remembers to put a few treats in my bowl.

Help, it’s getting dark and I just heard a noise down in the valley. Ollie the Collie, you had better stay close I am a bit of a wuss and afraid of the dark 😱 #darkwoods #stayclose #besties #icanrunquickerthanyou #dontworryaboutmum #everydogforhimself #dogsofinstagram

As Christmas is coming it is the season to give thanks I am running a competition (with a little help from my fur-parent) to win all these lovely goodies for my doggie friends.
Head over to our website for a chance to win #freegiveway #competition #dogpresents

After a very foggy start we ended up with a bit of sunshine on Leckhampton Hill, one of my favourite walks. I love it that much I have even written a blog post about it (link in my bio) #winterwalks

This is my ‘I am not impressed’ face. I am happy for Ollie the Collie to come and stop but not happy when he nicks my bed in front of the fire. I shall have to upgrade myself to the sofa #notimpressed #woodburner #cozynightin #nofireworkshere #bestfriends

An autumn day out #nationaltrust Berrington Hall near Leominster, #Herefordshire with Ollie the Collie who is on a sleepover. #berringtonhall is a Georgian mansion designed by Henry Holland set in parkland laid out by Capability Brown.
The great news is dogs are welcome in the gardens, parklands and Stable Tearoom (not the Old Servants Tearoom). Well worth a visit on chilly autumn day.

If you like #gameofthrones then you must visit #sanjuandegaztelugatze which is #dragonstone in series 7.
It is on the #basquecoastline in #northernspain and we visited while we were touring in our #campervan. If you want to know the nearest place to stay overnight with a great sunset then check out our blog post on adventuresinourvan.com

After a lovely walk in the Forest of Dean we popped into Harts Barn Teashop. Tasty cakes and I even got a sausage as a little snack so I wasn’t left out.
Harts Barn was originally a hunting lodge but as the Forest of Dean decreased in size it became a working farm and Speechhouse took over as the hunting lodge of the Forest.
The Teashop originally was the cattle hay and grain store. The conversion of the farm buildings began in 1995.
Harts Barn Craft Centre and Tea Shop is situated between Longhope & Mitcheldean and well worth a visit to refuel both humans and doggies (51.864165 -2.471665) #hartsbarncraftcentre #coffeeandcakes #dogfriendly #forestofdean #autumwalks #adventureswithdogs #adventuresinourvan

Ok, I think my mad pawrent needs to stop buying wine in cartons. She put wine in her coffee this morning (still drank it!) and last night topped up her wine with milk #winemixup #gottolaugh #wastenotwantnot #holidayfuntimes #campervanning #europetravel #travelbloggerlife

Can you spot me in the first photo? Close up in the second photo!
Apparently I was not suppose to disappear over the edge and somehow end up in the river at the bottom of the gorge. I am now called Finn the mountain goat. This was a walk to find out where we could park the campervan to do the Ruta Del Cares walk the following day. For the full on gorge walk I am told I need to be on a lead at all times, not sure why........#stupidboy #givingmumkittens #amazingviews #picosdeeuropa #rutadelcares #ilovewater

Another day in the #campervan and another river and another swim. Apparently I am a very lucky boy 🐶 🐾.
If you are thinking of visiting #cangasdeonis in your own #motorhome there is a free stopover (43.352136 -5.125419) in town where I am led believe there are lots of bars and restaurants. I had to snooze under a couple of tables while the paw parents tested them out! #picosdeeuropa #spainroadtrip #keepingcool #adventuresinourvan
