Blog (October 2026) - Mid & East Antrim

If your dog’s idea of heaven is a salty breeze, a sandy paddle and exploring new places, you’re going to love this one. We’ve mapped out a lazy two-day wander up the Antrim coast from Carrickfegus to Carnlough, then back down via Larne - castles, lighthouses, waterfalls and a whole lot of sniffing - with dog-friendly stops all the way.

The decorations are packed away, the chaotic rush of the festive season is behind us, and January stretches ahead like a blank page. It is the perfect month to hit the reset button, not with punishing gym regimes or expensive fitness fads necessarily, but by grounding our bodies and minds.
