Dog Days AwayGOOD DAYS. TOGETHER.East Dunbartonshire · Scotland · Countryside
Milngavie is a starting point for a walking break that need not involve completing the West Highland Way. Choose a short first section of the trail or a reservoir outing, with enough time to return comfortably. The two researched stays are outside the town: Glazert is in Lennoxtown and West Highland Way Hotel is at Blanefield in Stirling. Plan the journey between your bed and walk before booking.

A BASE FOR YOUR BREAK
Dog access can depend on the room or accommodation you choose. Confirm the exact dog arrangements before you pay.
Glazert explicitly permits small, well-behaved dogs in bedrooms when declared at booking. West Highland Way Hotel and Campsite welcomes dogs in its accommodation, with exact room allocation and charges to confirm. Choose the hotel-room format you want rather than assuming a campsite booking includes a private bathroom.

Official visitor information ↗Start from Milngavie and enjoy a modest out-and-back rather than treating a long-distance stage as compulsory. The council map helps identify paths towards Mugdock.
Keep dogs controlled near livestock and wildlife. Check signs and ground conditions; this recommendation does not extend to restricted lambing fields further along the Way.
