What can I do in Lewes with a dog?
12 places to go on our list say dogs are welcome, and Cleo & Bonnie have checked 11 of them, including Bull House, Lewes Castle & Barbican House Museum, Lewes Golf Club and Lewes Priory (Priory Park). Of these, 1 puts out a water bowl and 3 let dogs into some areas only. Each place's page gives its dog rules, with the source and the date.
Checked places come first. The rest show what each place says itself, so ring ahead if it matters. Some ask for a lead, at least at certain times of year, and each place's page says what it asks.
