Other things to note Dogs are allowed in the house but strictly not in bedrooms and on couches. The surrounds can be enclosed so dogs can safely stay within the yard . It is a working farm so we ask that all dogs are kept on leads for walks. Horses can stay overnight in stable (no riding on property). Many people come to Dungog to ride on the Common.
