A nice place to picnic but need to bring your own seats. The children's playground is good for younger children. A large grass area for football ect. Well kept and access to woodland at the back.

Beautiful park , surrounded by a miniature forest, so lovely for walks with the kids and pets. The park itself is split into two separate play areas for younger or older kids. Perfect for people who live close by or a short ride away.

Great selection of playground structures for little ones and older kids. We really like it here and you've got the woods to explore and a huge green for games and picnics. The train structure, tunnel and hill make it a bit different from other parks in the area.
