3 days in Skegness with the dog

Three days in Skegness with the dog, and not one stop where somebody has to wait outside holding the lead: every place here welcomes dogs. Day one heads inland to Louth — Play Factory Louth, then 8.3 miles to the Jug and Bottle for lunch (food hygiene rating 5/5), then 9.4 miles to Louth Museum. Day two is Cleethorpes: The Jungle Zoo, a short walk of under a quarter of a mile to Cleethorpes Taphouse and Kitchen, and 2.9 miles on to Dock Koi.

Day three is the seaside finale, with The Red Lion and Pleasure Land just 0.4 miles apart. For beds, Greenacres Ingoldmells sits 0.7 miles from Ingoldmells beach, rated Excellent for bathing water by the Environment Agency, and 3.2 miles from Skegness station. The Elms adds pet-friendly pitches, WiFi and disabled access; Ings Barn sleeps 10, 0.6 miles from Thorpe Culvert station. Bring a short lead, a collapsible water bowl and a towel: there's a walk in every day.
