An Unforgettable Weekend for Four-Legged Friends at Easton Walled Gardens

Easton Walled Gardens is set to become a paradise for pooches this August with a special "Dog Days" event followed by the highly anticipated return of the "Sausage Stroll." This weekend of canine-centric activities offers a unique opportunity for dog lovers and their furry companions to explore the historic gardens in a series of events that celebrate our four-legged friends.

Dog Days 2025: Sundays in August

For those who believe no garden visit is complete without their canine companion, Easton Walled Gardens has been opening its gates to dogs every Sunday in August. The "Dog Days" initiative allows visitors to bring their dogs along to enjoy the 450-year-old gardens, known for their stunning sweet peas and snowdrop displays. Admission is £12 for adults and £5 for children, with dogs enjoying free entry. It's a fantastic way to spend a summer day, with your furry friend by your side as you wander through the beautifully maintained grounds.

Sausage Stroll 2025: An Evening of Dachshund Delight

The highlight of the weekend is undoubtedly the "Sausage Stroll 2025," a dedicated evening for dachshunds and their families. Taking place on the same day, Sunday, August 24, this special event revives a much-loved tradition that was last held in 2019. The gardens will open exclusively for dachshunds of all shapes and sizes from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm, after the regular public hours.

Ursula Cholmeley, the owner of Easton Walled Gardens, shared her excitement about the event's return. "We last ran this event in 2019 before Covid and are delighted to bring it back," she said. "It will be noisy but great fun to see lots of dachshunds and their families enjoying the gardens."

The Sausage Stroll promises to be an evening of joyous chaos and fantastic photo opportunities. Dachshunds, the true VIPs of the night, will enjoy free admission, while their human companions will pay £12 for adults and £5 for children. The event offers a unique chance for dachshund owners to connect and for these charismatic "sausage dogs" to strut their stuff in a magnificent setting.

Easton Walled Gardens, a historic gem in South Lincolnshire, offers more than just beautiful landscapes. The grounds also feature a charming courtyard with specialist art and stationery shops and a delightful Coffee Room, making it a perfect destination for a day out.

Whether you have a dachshund or just want to enjoy a day out with your dog, this weekend at Easton Walled Gardens promises a memorable experience for both two-legged and four-legged visitors. It's a wonderful way to celebrate the bond between humans and their canine companions in a setting of historical beauty.
