An OG Holly Lodge employee if you will! He was life and soul of the party, a true friend to myself and Beccy and a honorary son to Lucy & Geoff, not to mention the most amazing husband, brother, son and grandson to the Riddington Family 🩵 Jack had Type 1 Diabetes and this September 5 of his closest friends are cycling from Edinburgh Royal Infirmary where Jack passed away to the memorial woodland that was planted in memory of Jack on his family farm in Crowland, Lincolnshire. Holly Lodge have sponsored the boys for this ride and we would love it, if you are able, to donate anything you can big or small to this amazing cause and these 5 heroic boys, who will no doubt have very sore bottoms by the end of it! We will post a couple of updates over the next few days in support of the boys and we thank you all for taking the time to read about our dear Jack! If you’d like to follow the boys journey you can by following @ride4ridd Link for donations is in our bio!

Our sessions in the morning and evening are the perfect way to spend some time with your furry friend in this beautiful weather ☀️ Finnnnnallly some cooler weather! Thank goodness for a break in the heat! We shouldn’t complain, but walking doggos in the heatwaves has been virtually impossible! If your dog is feeling a bit cooped up or hasn’t had an off lead walk for a while, why not book an hour in our Brampton field for some stress free zoomies?! We can’t wait to see you! 🐶🐾#zoomies We’ve been a little quiet on here the last few weeks, we had to say goodbye to our gorgeous Oscie bear 😢 It’s not until you lose a dog that you realise how much of a hole they leave in your family. Oscar was a menace, a thrifty escape artist and always looking for the next bit of the kids food that he could steal whilst they weren’t watching, but after receiving the news that he had a pituitary brain tumour and cushings disease we knew that he hadn’t got long left with us 💔 If you visit us regularly you might have seen Oscar pottering around where he shouldn’t have been, but he would always give you a wag of his tail and come over for a fuss! His favourite thing was walking the fields with me and he always found the tennis balls left behind! Field checks will never quite be the same again, however it made me realise what a sanctuary they were for him in his last couple of months, as he could potter around them, sniffing, playing with a ball, all whilst being safe. I really hope that some of you also find comfort and security in our fields, especially if you have older dogs who you want to still give some freedom to 🐾 See you again Oscie 💙 Little and large! 😍 It’s nearly the weekend! Who’s visiting us for zoomies this weekend?! 💨 A fresh bank holiday mow 💚 We look forward to seeing everyone over the bank holiday weekend, please be aware of the weather, if you wish to move your booking due to the heat a minimum of 24 hours notice must be given. No bookings will be refunded or moved under 24 hours notice across this weekend due to the weather, please plan ahead. Thank you and enjoy the sunshine! 😎 When you’re with your doggos in the sunshine ☀️ All our fields have now had their first mow of the season and we’re loving the stripes! Bring on more summer sunshine 🥳 An absolute favourite of ours from this weekend 😍🐰 We hope everyone had a fantastic Easter weekend! With the temporary hotting up of the weather we’d like to remind everyone that we have water at all fields and paddling troughs at our North and South Paddocks 💦 Enjoy the spring time sunshine ☀️ Is that spring we see?! 🌸👀 As the nights become longer we have now opened up our 5-6pm booking at all 3 fields!

“Love it here. It's not noisy, it has a lovely outdoor area and the food selection is huge. I had a med veg sausage roll and cherry and clotted cream milkshake. Followed up with piece of Oreo cookie pie. (Took that home as was too full after I got halfway through 🤣). All three were very nice. The staff are polite and the cafe is clean and tidy. Plenty of parking. It's one of those little tucked away gems.”
