Holland Park woodland and Kyoto Garden

Off-lead rules

Off-lead in designated areas

Dogs may be off lead in the open areas of the park but must be on leads in the woodlands and formal gardens.

On-lead areas: Dogs must be kept on leads in the woodlands and formal gardens of Holland Park. Dogs are not permitted in the Kyoto Garden or in any park playground. Dogs must be supervised by owners when off-lead and must not be allowed to cause a nuisance to others or run into flower beds.

A Public Spaces Protection Order applies here. RBKC has a Dog Control Public Spaces Protection Order, but its text is published only as a scanned 2018 PDF with no machine-readable text layer, so its current articles could not be verified.
