Standen House is another National Trust place that is taking part in the Pooch Passport scheme, and as the day was mild and dry it was a perfect day for an exolore. We followed one of the Estate walks and headed out towards Weir Wood Reservoir - and as with a Fancy Free Walk we did in the area last year - we were forever just a bit away from the water. We got a much better view of it from afar than close to. We took the opportunity to sit in the dog friendly bit of the cafe - the Engine Room - to enjoy a coffee before finishing our visit with a stroll around the grounds. This pooch passport scheme is really encouraging us to make the most of our membership.

Standen House is another National Trust site participating in the Pooch Passport scheme, and with mild, dry weather, it was a perfect day for exploring. We followed one of the estate’s walking routes, heading towards Weir Wood Reservoir. Just like during a Fancy Free Walk we did in the area last year, we always seemed to be just out of reach of the water, getting a much better view from a distance than up close.
