The Stanwick ramparts from Hillhouse Lane

Timber cabins with wood-fired hot tubs set in the old quarry and woodland at Forcett Grange, a mile south of Forcett village. The site is split in two and only one half takes dogs: the Foxwood cabins are a dogs-welcome area, the Quarry cabins are not, and the limit is one dog per cabin with a surcharge on top of the room rate. Dogs that do come get bowls for food and water, some treats, eco-friendly bags and the run of The Meadow, and the cabins open straight onto woodland rather than onto a road. Book the Foxwood specifically, because a Quarry booking cannot be converted on arrival.

The excavated section of rampart and ditch at Stanwick sits beside the B6274 at Carkin, between Forcett and Aldbrough St John, and is what remains visible of a Brigantian earthwork enclosing more than seven hundred acres. English Heritage says dogs on leads are welcome, restricted areas only, and the site is open at any reasonable time during daylight hours with no admission charge. There is no formal car park, only careful roadside parking on the B6274, and the ground is prone to flooding after rain. Steps lead up the bank to the monument, so it is not suitable for wheelchairs or pushchairs and a very small or elderly dog may need a lift.
