Great park with quite a lot of options for kids to play with both younger and older kids. The only downside for me was the is a lot of space around to walk dogs however some people were letting their dogs run in the playground without leashes.
Bradlaugh Fields & Barn is the perfect place for a peaceful walk, whether you're out enjoying nature, taking the kids for some fresh air, or bringing your dog along (on a lead, of course!). The beautiful forest paths, open green spaces, and rich wildlife make it a wonderful escape from the busy city. It’s well-maintained, quiet, and a great spot to unwind and reconnect with nature. I absolutely love visiting—it's a hidden gem for families, nature lovers, and responsible dog walkers!
Beautiful place to walk ur dogs. Very peaceful and a lovely little cafe in the middle..
Beautiful area, open space, with lots of nature to see and well looked after. Visited regulary by locals who all know each other, it has a really nice community spirit. The barn is a lovely friendly place on a Saturday morning to have a coffee - ran by volunteers. The field by the barn is usually used by families and children during the day. A lovely local regulary paints small stones and hides them around the barn area for the children (and adults) to find. A great children's play park, and loads of trees and areas to explore. The barn itself runs numerous groups and events, all detailed on their Facebook page. The top fields are mostly child free and a great place to walk, expecially with your dog. Again lots of open space for ball throwing and dogs to run and play. Nathan, a local dog trainer and behaviourist, does dog walks on a Saturday morning attended by dozens of people. With no close roads for parents or dog owners to be overly concerned about, friendly locals and with its green flag status, Bradlaugh fields and Barn is a gem of a place.
Beautiful! Some amazing work has been done/is going on. Pond... barn for coffee etc... gardens... planters... flowers... log benches. Really lovely. Great the blow the cobwebs away/meet up with friends/walk the dog/etc. 5 out of 5!
