Following a successful pilot weekend in May the Eden Project will open its doors to dogs every day, "due to popular demand".

Previously only registered assistance dogs have been allowed in but the Project has decided to relax the rules.

Dogs and their owners will be able to enjoy the outdoor paths at Eden but won’t be allowed in the Biomes or other undercover areas, apart from the Visitor Centre, including the ticketing hall and shop.

While staff are confident dogs "will behave" there are a few ground rules for owners.

Dogs should be: kept on a lead at all times, only be walked on paths, kept away from play areas, and not taken into buildings other than the Visitor Centre.

Owners should stick to the number one rule of ensuring all dog mess is promptly and properly disposed of in the special bins provided.

Aggressive dogs are not permitted into the Eden Project, who reserve the right to refuse entry to, or remove, any dog thought to be dangerous to visitors or other dogs.

There will be extra facilities to deal with the arrival of the pets, including dedicated dog waste bins, water bowls, shaded parking shelters and water in four car parks and even an undercover dining area for dogs on the terrace outside the Eden Bakery.
