Local Area​

If you've enjoyed your time at our enclosed dog walking field, you might want to explore the rest of what Harty has to offer...

The Ferry House

After a good run in our dog paddock, you and your pup are likely to have worked up an appetite! Why not join us at The Ferry House, our 2AA Rosette waterside restaurant, for a delicious meal featuring fresh produce from our Kitchen Garden, family farm, and local estate? Whether you choose to dine alfresco on the terrace or in our cosy, dog friendly restaurant, your pup can relax with a nap or enjoy a meal from our doggy menu by Sir Woofchester's.
If you're staying with us, selected rooms at The Ferry House are dog friendly, complete with a comfy bed, bowl, and a welcome pack for your furry companion. And if you're looking to unwind further, our treatment rooms offer luxurious massages and facials to soothe those tired muscles.

Mocketts Farm Cottages

You'll find our dog exercise field within the Mocketts Farm Cottages complex, made up of five self-catering cottages and converted barns. These dog friendly cottages offer an idyllic countryside break in the Garden of England, sleeping 4-53 guests, it's perfect for a couple's getaway, family escape or large gathering. Available to hire throughout the year, including over Christmas and New Year, Mocketts Farm Cottages can also host corporate retreats and make the ideal overnight accommodation for our barn wedding venue at The Ferry House.

Local Walks

We're blessed to be surrounded by nature as far as the eye can see, meaning our little spot on the Isle of Sheppey has many walking routes to choose from. If your pup is full of energy and a run around our enclosed dog field hasn't quite hit the spot, or if you would like to return another day to explore Harty by foot or bike, the Isle of Harty trail is one of our favourite routes to explore our beautiful surrounds, past the 11th century Church of St Thomas the Apostle where you can head for the Blue Flag beach at Leysdown or explore the Swale Nature Reserve towards Shellness. Due to the many nesting ground birds, dogs should be kept on a lead at all times.
Alternatively, you can take a stroll along our section of the English Coastal Path along the water's edge towards Elmley Nature Reserve. Please note dogs are not permitted on the nature reserve to avoid disturbing the many wonderful species of bird.

Island Dog'n'Splash

If you want to spoil your pup with a whole day out of activities in Harty, you can enjoy Island Dog 'n' Splash, just down the road from Mocketts Farm Dog Field at Elliots Farm. Your dog can enjoy a swim in the large pool or have a go on the agility equipment too for full stimulation. Offering either 30-minute group or private sessions for all breeds and puppies from 6 months old, providing a range of health benefits especially for older dogs to help with their joints. This is not a hydrotherapy pool, it's just for your pups to have fun and enjoy a completely different form of exercise.
