Devil’s Dyke is a local beauty spot just outside Brighton, part of the South Down’s Way with far reaching views across the South Downs and The Weald in southern England.
It’s an amazing place and we haven’t been there for a while on account of the cows! No-one wants a dog who’s rolled in a cow pat, believe me!
But last night I took a chance and only having the one dog with me we parked up and enjoyed an incredible evening walk.
Georgie, our Golden Retriever, knows this place well as we used to come here quite a bit when she was a puppy. She was clearly delighted to be back!
There were cows – but they didn’t get in our way. Georgie did have a very quick roll in a cow pat and needed to have a shower when we got home but I was in a good mood and didn’t mind!
If you come here, parking is now £2.00 which was a bit of a shock. You can also come by bus, the 77, usually open top, and there’s usually an ice cream van in the car-park which is always a bonus 
If you haven’t been here before then go! It’s a very special place and you can walk right along the South Down’s Way marvelling at the stunning Sussex countryside below.

I think cow patties are a little firmer and less aromatic than the horse manure my dog loves. It’s a good thing I have a pool for her to swim in after the rolls. I guess I shouldn’t tell company that…
What fun! Letting the dogs swim in the pool to wash off the horse manure. No probably shouldn’t broadcast that one!!
Ah, there’s nothing like a nice roll in a cow pie to make a day’s walk complete!
Oh I suppose you’re right. I guess I’m just being a fussy mum!!
Thanks for the beautiful pictures!. They bought back some lovely memories for me. I use to live close enough to visit as a child, but haven’t been there for over 20 years. Makes me feel like a dog walk there too!
Hi doglistener! Yes I’m sure there’s been no change in that part of the world for many years. It’s still as stunning as ever
Wow! What a sight! Georgie is so adorable! Nice photos..looks like she really knows the place she looks so happy and comfortable!
