Hi there Dog Pals and your Hoomans,
It has been a while since I put paws to keyboard to write a review but I just MUST tell you about my trip out today!
Hum collected one of my bested human friends Annetta to take us on an adventure (and lunch) 😊
SO, I collected up my stuff, lead, travel bowl, treats etc. and we then collected Annetta and off we went.
Hum’s satnav lady got busy with directions and soon we arrived at a place called the McClelland Sculpture Park. Now here is a tip for you lovely doggy friends of mine – if you and your human are going to Harry’s café for lunch, you get free entry to the park!!!!!
Now for the practical stuff:
McClelland Park is situated at 390 McClelland Drive, Langwarrin, approximately 50 kilometres south-east of Melbourne, at the gateway to the Mornington Peninsula.
Sculpture Park & Gallery Hours:
Wed to Sun: 10am-5pm
Harry’s Café:
Wed to Sun: 10am-4pm
We went to Harry’s Café first and I was delighted to see that there was a pleasant covered area for us four-legs and humans to sit in to eat.
There were also several tables outside with umbrellas for shade overlooking the lake.
Even better was the thoughtfulness of the staff to put not just a water station out in the covered area, BUT ALSO DOG TREATS!!!!!!
Hum and Annetta check out the food and they reckoned it was very good – with a lot of choice and some home baked goodies. Certainly Hum’s toastie was tasty…..
After Hum and Annetta finished lunch and agreed on how pleasant everything was; how good the coffee was, how peaceful it was and how full they were, we got to explore the park.
There is a lovely lake with walks around it and sculpture dotted about for you to find.
If you come on a Thursday morning with your Humans at 10.00 a.m., there is even a Tail Waggers Dog Walking Group for 30 minutes to enjoy with your buddies!
As we had missed the walk we made our own way around and Hum and Annetta particularly liked finding ‘Frankie’ The Chrome Gnome which has recently been relocated to the park. Boy is he one big Gnome! Look how tiny I look!
They also really enjoyed another sculpture which made music called Tubular Resonance. Apparently if you move around it, it creates more sound! What fun!
There are lots more to see and enjoy and lovely walks through the trees to sniff and check your wee-mail.
So get yourself organized and grab your humans for a fun, dog friendly day out!
