One of my favourite parks in Belfast. Well laid out, great for sunbathing ir a picnic. Great playpark for children. Loads of dog walkers. Some woods to wander in crunchy pine underneath. Fabulous parking at CIYMS or off Belmont Road

Love taking my dog here, it's a lovely walk, 2 parks connected via a bridge. If you have children with you it also has a fantastic play park. Also, there is a small forest in one of the parks and the dog loves to go in looking for squirrels and its lovely and peaceful. Great park to walk my dog.

Great place to let the kids run free. Nice that it's an enclosed space but you can see all round it.
