Hi — we’re Tracey, Andy, Sid & Holly!
Welcome to Tails in the Trees, a peaceful and private dog walking park nestled inside a working Christmas tree farm in Barrow upon Humber, North Lincolnshire.
It’s an enclosed area with a secure space where tails wag, worries fade, and memories bloom — the kind of place where dogs can just be dogs, and humans can finally breathe.
We created this space for caring dog owners like you — whether your pup is playful, anxious, reactive, or just needs freedom to roam without the chaos of a public park. Our enclosed dog field and secure play area give you the peace of mind you’ve been craving.
So come for the on- and off-lead freedom, stay for the stillness, and leave with a happy, tired dog... and a full heart.
Book online — fresh air, wagging tails, and memory-making guaranteed.
🌿 A peaceful field nestled in the coutryside
Whether you’ve got a new puppy, a nervous or reactive dog, or simply want a safe, secure space to let your best friend run free — this is your kind of place.
Wander on-lead through the Christmas trees or let loose in our fully enclosed off-lead area — or do both! You set the pace. We’re not here to judge — we’re here to help.
Our field is designed with dogs (and their humans) in mind:
-
Fresh water available on site
-
Waste bins placed around the park
-
Fenced, private access – no unexpected visitors
-
It’s peaceful, private, and perfectly yours for the duration of your booking.
🚗 Facilities for You (Because Humans Matter Too)
We’ve made sure your visit is as smooth and stress-free as possible — because let’s face it, dog-walking should never involve a parking battle.
-
Free off-road parking right here on site — no roadside chaos, no squeezing into tight spots.
-
A secure waiting area in the yard if you're early or handing over to another dog walker.
-
And yes, there’s a permanent portaloo onsite — because nature calls, and not just for the dogs.
-
Everything’s designed to be easy, safe, and relaxed — just how it should be.
🐕🦺 A Separate & Secure Training Area – Included with Every Booking
As part of your session, you’ll also get exclusive access to our second secure area — a private space kitted out with agility equipment and open grass ready for action.
Whether you're up for a bit of fun with jumps, tunnels, and training games, or prefer a calm space to practise recall, loose lead work, or just enjoy some quiet bonding time — this space is yours to use, your way.
It’s ideal for:
-
Puppies needing gentle socialisation
-
Energetic dogs who love a challenge
-
Nervous or reactive dogs who benefit from structure
-
Training sessions with no distractions
Tailor your visit to suit your dog’s needs — energetic or easy-going, young or old, confident or cautious. The options are endless.
