I’m Having recently taken on a young rescue dog who is very anxious, this place has been a blessing! I can let her run free and play rough with my other two dogs whilst practicing her recall. Seeing other dogs in the meadow nextdoorhas shown me that she’s not likely to be reactive with other dogs. It is fabulous to have such a safe and secure setting where I know my dogs are safe and they can run and play freely. Online booking is easy and opening hours make it easy for me to use around my work shifts. There are simple rules that everyone follows making it a safe and enjoyable experience for all!
I have been bringing my dog here for many years and it has always been a marvellous place where I can let her off for a lovely run without having to worry she is going to go missing after a deer etc. It is clean and well maintained and this makes for a very pleasant experience all year round. Thank you for continuing to provide this facility.
Wild and free!! Exactly what it says on the tin!! Our puppies are being trained here to recall, the meadows are kept and maintained to the highest standards and Booking is made easy with online website,
Our two Schnoodle pups know exactly where we are going once a week to learn and play in a very safe place.
We would highly recommend
I have used both fields at this facility and can’t praise the owners enough…. It is well maintained and a lovely place to take dogs for a good old romp. Excellent !!!
This was the first time of using your meadows. Willow seemed to enjoy the scent board, trees and anything she could jump on and off!! I think the experience would be better for her if we'd attended with another dog. Next time hope to come with a friend and furry friend. Every thing well kept and clean. Thanks until the next time.
We have been using these fields for the last four years and I have consistently found them the best and the cleanest that we have used. My two love every minute of their 55 minutes and have a great run around, together with moments of training and enforced rest to get their breath back. I usually book well in adavnce but this time I just checked in on the off chance of a slot and found one available. It is also very useful being able to do this on the phone app. Thank you for your hard work in maintaining boundaries and grass field to such a high standard. Its always a pleasure to visit.
We spent a week in the New Forest and visited both meadows 4 times during our stay. A wonderful secure area. Has everything your dog should need. Highly recommend for all breeds of dogs. We will certainly be back.
I've just discovered Wild and Free Meadows and had a brilliant first visit. Safe, secure and well organised...the perfect environment for my reactive GSD to run, sniff and have fun. She particularly loved the trees and the tubes. Thank you, we will be coming back very soon.😊🐾
Absolutely excellent dog field. We have used it a couple of times a considerable while ago and were now in a situation to use it again. We found it excellent in the past and this time found it even better, as dog agility apparatus was available. One of our dogs is a true escape artist, finding the smallest of gaps. However, this site is truly 100% secure. We tried a local dog field and it was awful. The field was waterlogged much of the time and there were gaps everywhere for our dog to escape.
These dog fields are well worth the 45 mins drive. The field is level and well maintained. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you.
I took my rescue dog for an hour in the Buttercup meadow. I can't walk him off lead because he can be reactive and I wanted him to have a bit of freedom. He had a great time. There was another dog in the adjoining field and after the obligatory bark off they settled down and had running contests on either side of the fence. Very well organised and easy to book.
A fantastic set up! Our pug had a fabulous 55 minutes! Usually with the fields we hire at home, she's in and out in 20! But we struggled to get her to leave! Facilities are what you would expect and the security/ gates/ fences are in perfect condition. There isn't anything negative to say!
During our short stay in the New Forest we had booked times in both Buttercup Meadow and Daisy Maze. Motley our cockapoo thoroughly enjoyed the space and freedom that both fields offered especially Daisy Maze with its clusters of trees. Motley sadly cannot be trusted to run freely off his lead unless in a secure area so Buttercup Meadow and Daisy Maze enabled him to run freely without worries.
Having to walk my lab puppy in the dark before work several times a week is made so much easier and safer by having access to the fields! He can run and play and I can walk safely and not worry.
We have used the fields for training and exercise and facilities are always clean and well maintained.
My two hounds had another lovely run in Daisy Maze - highly recommend.
I had my daughters Rottweiler and Staffy while she had a well deserved holiday abroad. Both dogs are extremely well trained and responsive to my daughter but I did not feel that I was strong enough to walk them both together so we booked the field for 6 of the 7 days that I had them. The dogs loved all the new sniffs and enjoyed running in and out of the tree maze. They were interested in the various dogs that they saw in the next field and enjoyed sniffing through the fence. I felt relaxed in the field and able to enjoy the dogs. The field was well thought out and well maintained. I will recommend it to my friends with dogs.
I have been taking my sprocker to the fields over the last year or so and we both love it there. Both fields are perfect for training a busy spaniel. She loves the paddling pool and makes a beeline for it once training is over. I can highly recommend Wild & Free to anyone wanting a safe, secure training area with lots of fun equipment and plenty of space to run.
Fantastic fields i love the aecure field it helps for training recal and gaining trust with a new rescue. It really helped me cain trust with my dog when i first had her with knowing she could take her time coming up to me and knowing that she is safe.
Safe and fun. A great place to bring dogs who need an enclosure to keep them safe. Clean enclosure with fun obstacles and things to sniff.
Wild and Free Dog Meadows is such a great place! As a professional Animal Service, I look after a lot of Bull breeds and other breeds of dogs with issues, so it's a great location for me to take those dogs and let them just be dogs! <3
Also, as a Bull Terrier owner (3 gorgeous Bullies), it's also great to take my tribe up there and let them have fun together with no collars or leads on where they have no rules or regulations to adhere to like they do the rest of the time!!
Great place and I can thoroughly recommend to any one!!!
My dogs and my mother’s dogs all love coming to play at the meadows! It’s always easy to book online, though there are obviously busier times when there are no slots available, but would you expect when it’s extremely popular!
I always recommend the fields to any dog owners I meet lol 😂
I decided to book both fields and have a get together for one of my dog's birthdays with 10 dogs in total. Having both fields was really useful as we could keep one field as a quiet field for any dogs feeling overwhelmed by the canine chaos! With all the hot weather we've been having, it's brilliant the have to option for dogs to lie in a tray of water to cool down, they loved it! It was a successful event, all dogs and their humans loved it, thank you!
Wild and free meadows amazing. So nice for a piece of mind to be able to let my 1 year old dog off the lead and not to worry. The field was well maintained and so much for the dogs to explore. My elderly dog loved taking a slow walk around the field. Will 100% rebook , so nice to have this on our doorstep
I was in the area for my job as a dog sitter . As the dogs I was looking after couldn’t go off lead on walks I booked wild and free meadows so I could safely let them off for a good run about & they loved it! It’s easy to find and access is simple . If I lived closer I would certainly be a regular with my own dog 🤩
Such a beautiful place to relax and be free to meander with my furry bear. Booked a late spot on a warm summer evening with the sun beginning to set. Both fields are well maintained and a variety of activity and nature to stimulate the senses. Just perfect thank you Natalie and the team 🥰
Been visiting for 3 years now, great place for the dogs to chill out and have a really safe environment to exercise and play. They love it, lots of variety and enrichment. Very happy dogs 🐕 and owners 😊
Natalie such a wonderful service you provided for my 2little boys, thankyou x they have so much fun running free & I have no worries of them getting lost, so from me buddy ted & I expect a lot of other dog owners many many thanks 👍👍 x
Have been using Daisy Maze for a few years now - my beagle gets on with other dogs fine but his recall is rubbish so on the odd occasion when he does have a canine disagreement he is a bit of a pain, so it's much easier to use this facility. From the minute he gets in the car he is so excited as he loves it there - he is non-stop chasing a ball or exploring the trees or the water bath. Sure makes him sleep well!!
As dog parents to a rehomed border collie cross, daily walks used to be more about stress management than enjoyment. His reactivity to movement, especially other dogs, meant we were constantly on edge. Off-lead time was almost non-existent, limited to a long line at best, due to his strong urge to chase and bark.
But now, we finally have a safe solution. And I can't emphasise that word enough — safe.
From the moment we arrived for our first visit, the relief was overwhelming. For the first time ever, we let our boy off lead without a single worry. No scanning the horizon, no panic if we turned our backs for a second. Just pure peace of mind. The attention to detail from stimuli, to spare poo bags, to wash-down stations, this place thought of them all.
The space gave him freedom, and us confidence. We could focus on training in a controlled environment, completely free of distractions — or simply let him run, sniff, and be a dog.
This facility hasn’t just provided a physical space. It’s given us a sense of normality, a break from hypervigilance, and the joy of watching our dog just be. If you have a reactive dog, you’ll understand what a rare gift that is.
We have a young Lab puppy and wanted to socialise him with a friends dog. This was just the perfect place to let them run and play together. They had a great time! We will certainly use the space to train our puppy with recall etc. and agility etc.
Field is well cared for and the addition of water was certainly enjoyed in the warm water. Thank you ☺️
Fantastic place, very clear instructions how to get there and how to get in. Great place with everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable play for your furry baby. I found it very safe and secure and no poops left behind so all in all great place. Will definitely book again. ☺️
Our dogs love going to the field, we have a rescue Labrador that doesnt really like other dogs much, so it’s difficult to walk anywhere. He loves going to the field for a good run around and we know he’s going to be safe.
I would highly recommend this place.
We have just got a 16 month old rescue Great Dane who needs some recall training and a good run. Love the fact you can book for 25 mins as an hour would be too long. Ideal that she can socialise with dogs in next field without getting over excited. Very efficient booking system and reasonable prices. Love it - thank you!
Not just a treat for the dog to walk here but also for us.lovely to see the dog run about and know he is safe to do so
My two dogs absolutely adored their time there, as did I. One of my dogs is very anxious with other dogs, and this gave him the opportunity to run around, sniff, and explore without any worries. Booking is easy and straightforward. We will definitely be back.
My rescue dog really enjoyed running free in a safe and secure environment away from other dogs. There was plenty for her to see and do and was busy working out all the different scents. She was blissfully exhausted afterwards! The booking system was easy, instructions with codes were spot on and all went smoothly. We shall definitely be back again.
Haven't been to the meadows for about a year after the loss of my old dog. Recently returned with my new rescue dog and delighted to see that the place is constantly improving and is still a secure and safe fun and interactive space.
Had an amazing time at the meadows, we booked out both meadows for our three sausage dogs and they ran and ran and played and played. It's so secure and lots of different things to do, see and smell. They were knackered when they got home. We have already booked another four times it was that great. Thank you!
Had a lovely time with our springer in the late afternoon sunshine. We come here to work on her recall, safe in the knowledge that she cannot go blasting off into the distance, never to be seen again 🙂
A great facility!
My dogs and I both enjoy the fields, my dogs can run freely, and it's safe and secure. Im relaxed and can just watch and play with the dogs.
Also good to meet like-minded people and their fur babies.
Really good facility for letting your dogs off free to exercise without the worry of them wandering off in chase of the odd deer , squirrel or rabbit . Very safe and the dogs love it . What is also good is that you meet like minded people and the dogs can socialise through the fence. The dogs love it !
A great experience from start to finish. Found the location easily due to clear instructions being forward on booking confirmation. Beautifully maintained with well thought out enrichment for the dogs. Will definitely be coming back.
Fantastics dog field, we used it while on holiday with our two dogs. I think it’s the best field we’ve ever used. Well thought out and plenty for the dogs to do. Easy to book as well.
I have been using the fields for the last couple of months with my sprocker puppy. We have been working on recall training and it is lovely to know she is totally secure in either meadow. Her socialisation into the big wide world has also benefited from having horses in the field on one side, dogs on the other and road noises too. A great facility for anyone needing a secure area to train their dogs. I am really looking forward to being able to let her loose on the agility equipment once she's a bit older.
We have been using the meadows for over two years. Our dog loves it would recommend it to anyone. A great place well looked after.
Wild and Free Meadows is absolutely wonderful. Safe and beautifully kept with lots of different enrichment activities for you and your dog to have a go at.
Highly recommend and it's always lovely to see Natalie the owner.
Brilliant concept. Straightforward easy booking system. Clear instructions. Everything thought of, even spare poo bags for those who forget to bring them. Exercize and stimulation in a safe and secure environment. Thankyou.
Two new puppies . What a fantastic place to integrate the newbies in our family pack.
We usually walk together in the forest .but with the newest members coming along and the meadows being so secure .
Great place great facilities
We used Wild & Free on Saturday 8th January for the first time, having a rescue dog we were concerned about his recall off of the lead, this was a perfect place to give him the opportunity to roam free while seeing if he would come back when called.
Such a well thought out bushiness with safe and secure fields, would highly recommend.
We have had our greyhound for a month now and it’s the first time he has been let off, he loved it!!! It’s a pity he didn’t have another sighthound to run with but at least he could be let off safely with no little dogs around.
