Paws and Play Paddock at Leashaw Farm

Paws and Play Paddock at Leashaw Farm is a secure dog field in Robin Hood, Whatstandwell, around five miles from Matlock. It's a private-hire paddock designed for off-lead exercise, recall training and dogs who find shared spaces tricky. Book online by appointment only, with space for up to two or three dogs per session.

The field is enclosed by a 5'9" fence, giving reactive or recall-anxious dogs a safe place to run, sniff and burn off energy without the worry of other dogs or open escapes. Fresh water is available on site and dedicated dog waste bins keep things tidy. Parking is limited to two cars per booking and dogs must stay on lead in the car park before being released inside the secure paddock.

Sessions are booked and paid for upfront through the online booking system, making it straightforward to plan ahead. It's a practical nearby option for Matlock dog owners looking for a safe, private space to let their dog be a dog.
