Apologies for the length of the grass at the moment! As you can imagine, with all the rain we’ve had recently it has been impossible to get the first cut done.
However as long as it stays dry the field will be cut next week 👍

Looking good after another good cut. Cannot believe how much the grass is still growing!

Please ensure dogs are monitored when in the field and do not allow them to dig holes like this as it just creates a hug...

A little wisGEM here of the Queen getting bloody excited over some cows...I noticed the only copy on YouTube was a recording of a TV. So I searched high and ...

Happy Birthday Hudson and Starbuck. 8 years of loving you ♥️

Just to let everyone know I’ll be cleaning the pond week after next. I appreciate it’s running a little low but unfortunately couldn’t get the equipment needed before then.

The field has had a much needed hair cut. Apologies it’s been rather long over the past few weeks!

The History of The Retreat

I purchased the field, which I then renamed “The Retreat” in October 2016. I had been searching for a piece of land to safely exercise my own five dogs for a couple of years, when it occurred to me that other people would surely be in need of the same facility. I came up with the field name as it perfectly represented what I wanted the field to be: A safe place for dogs and owners to enjoy the beautiful surroundings with no apprehension or worry.

I have over a decade of experience with dogs, having previously run my own dog walking and home boarding service and I have looked after lots of dogs who for many reasons, could not be let off the lead safely, which caused a huge amount of stress and anxiety for the owner. This included aggression or reactivity towards unfamiliar dogs, unreliable recall and strong prey drives.

I was confident that a secure field would be of great benefit to many owners, so I decided to open my field to the public and The Retreat has gone from strength to strength over the past year.

I have developed the field further to include a small lake for swimming, there is now an agility course to enjoy and a small copse over 20 trees which I will add to each year, to have around an acre of woodland within the 7 acre field.
