Kilters Hounds at Kilters Farm

Kilters Hounds is a private, secure dog walking field at Kilters Farm in Hugus, just outside Truro. The 3-acre paddock sits on an 18-acre working equestrian farm and is hired by the session, giving each booking sole use of the field for off-lead exercise.

The field has 6ft metal fencing, plus a minimum of 4ft stock-proof fencing backed by a dense boundary hedge along two sides. Inside are agility equipment, a sandpit, a dog wash, drinking water, poo bins, a lead station and a shelter for owners.

Slots of 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes are booked in advance online, between 7am and 7pm every day of the year. A standard booking covers one car and up to four dogs, with an extra car and up to four more dogs available as add-ons. Visitors park in the inner car park. Anyone arriving early waits in the car, no more than five minutes before the slot, so dogs already in the field are not unsettled.
