Using Sweetwell Fields
- Use of Sweetwell Fields is by appointment only.
- Sweetwell Fields has both a General Car Park and Secure Parking Area within the field and you can use either carpark.
- The entry code for the secure parking area and field will be provided by email 1 hour before your booked walk. If you have not received the code 1hr before your booking, please check you email account’s Spam folder and if you still have not received the code please contact us on sweetwell.fields@gmail.com
- If you are using the General Car Park:
- Please ensure that the previous booking has left and/or the field is empty before letting your dog(s) out of your vehicle(s).
- Please ensure that all dogs are kept on leads between your vehicle and the field.
- If using the Secure Parking Area:
- Only enter the lane leading to the Secure Parking Area or the Secure Parking Area itself until it is empty and you have confirmed that the field is unoccupied.
- To use the Secure Parking Area, open the gate using the lock code, drive into the secure parking area and shut the gate behind you before letting your dog out of the car.
- If you are not using the Secure Parking Area please walk you dog on a lead to the gate, open the gate using the lock code and shut the gate behind you before letting you dog off the lead.
- When entering the enclosure/field make sure the “occupied” sign is showing.
- Enjoy a relaxing walk with your dog.
- Clean up after your dogs with compostable bags; you can use the bin provided or take the bags home with you.
- We would ask customers to pick up any poo accidentally left by previous users so that others will do the same for poo you are unable to locate! This will ensure that the field is as pleasant to use as possible for everyone.
- Clean your dog using the cleaning station if required. If you remove the hose attachment, please reattach it before leaving the field.
- If you are using the secure parking area; once your dog is back in the car, exit the enclosure, close and lock the gate and change the sign to “unoccupied”.
- If you are using the general car park exit the field, ensuring that your dogs are on the lead, close and lock the gate and change the sign to “unoccupied”.
- As appointments are back to back, please leave Sweetwell fields before the end of your time slot so that others may start their session.
