Red Lion, Ashford Road, Badlesmere, Faversham Kent ME13 0NX
We stopped at The Red Lion at Badlesmere for lunch after a beautiful walk around Kings Wood (just a quick 5-minute drive away), and it was an absolute gem of a find.

This historic pub, originally built in 1546 during the reign of Henry VIII, was once a farm dwelling before becoming an inn in 1728. It’s full of charm and character, with a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

We were especially impressed by how dog-friendly it is – four-legged friends are welcome in both the garden and restaurant areas, as long as they’re on a lead and you’re responsible for cleaning up after them. They even offer doggy biscuits, which was a lovely touch!

The food, though, is the real highlight – absolutely amazing and the entire menu is 100% gluten free, prepared in a Coeliac UK accredited kitchen with a 5-star hygiene rating.

Highly recommend stopping in – whether you’re walking, exploring the area, or just looking for a fantastic meal in a cosy, dog-friendly pub with a bit of history.

WHAT IS HOOPERS?!

WHAT IS HOOPERS?!

Hoopers is fast and fluid where dogs get to negotiate a course of hoops, barrels and tunnels whilst the handler directs them at distance.

Distance handling upskills the human/canine partnership whilst 'lower impact' and generally safer by avoiding jumps, tight turns and heights. Great for junior and senior dogs as well as handlers with limited physical fitness - your dog does the hard work! Big dogs, small dogs, any breed of any age can enjoy Canine Hoopers. Come and join the fun!

This pawsitively gorgeous Collie X Golden Charlie training Hoopers at Ted’s Field, Paddock Wood with The Dog Squad Official

Canine Paws Academy and The Dog Squad Official Kings Hill offer Hoopers training but the TRAIN link on the Doggy Directory is growing all the time! The Dog Squad Official train Hoopers at Ryarsh Paw Ground.
