    There are always millions of people with their dogs when I go to trentham gardens, so they must put them somewhere while they go in the Monkey Forest?

    Bakewell, Derbyshire. Gorgeous place. Waterworld (ROTFL!!!!)

    no dogs aren't allowed as they would disrupt the monkeys and prob chase them, it is a great place to visit though as is trentham garden which is next door, here you can take dogs, they've even got a doggy shop where you can buy t-shirts and beds and shoes for your dog!!!
