Bennybeg Plant Centre

Bennybeg Plant Centre is an independent garden centre on Muthill Road near Crieff, about 16 miles from Stirling town centre. Dogs are welcome inside the plant centre, making it a handy stop when you're both in need of compost, bedding plants or a browse among the seasonal stock without the usual lead-and-bag juggle outside. The centre offers a broad range of plants and draws praise for its selection and ample parking.

Whether you're after shrubs, perennials or something for the patio, you can bring your dog along while you shop. It's the kind of place where a quick errand can turn into a longer wander and your dog gets to stay with you.

There's a café on site, though dog access in the café area has not been confirmed. The main retail space, however, is dog-friendly, so you can tick the gardening essentials off the list together and keep the day moving without splitting up.
