There are a number of short, medium and long walks to be enjoyed from Layside. On a clear day, even a stroll around the block provides some exhilarating views of the Tyne Valley, Hadrian’s Wall and beyond. Today it was frosty underfoot, meaning no muddy paw-prints on our return! Being situated on the top of a hill means that all walks from the door involve a gentle hill climb on return, but this 30-40 minute “around the block” walk takes advantage of a paved surface throughout and wide verges for well controlled dogs to enjoy off the lead.
