Really beautiful and big playground..perfect for kids up to 5years in my opinion. So many things to do and there is also a little coffee shop inside. Definitely a place to go w small kids.

Good park, swings, slides, toddler area. It would have been great if they didn't section off a big chunk of the park (Wasted space) that would have been beneficial for the children as there's not much playgrounds around. Still waiting for pieces of damaged equipment to be repaired. Toilets need updating, please don't send your children in there alone. Thanks for reading

A much needed playground in the city. There are several wheelchair accessible play structures and there are bathrooms

Fabulous, not too busy so adults able to social distance, children able to socialise, play and share the lovely facilities. Interactive musical play structures, great for children who thrive on touch and sound 💫

Not great, i have to say.... Not a good show for a Monday afternoon.... saw a lot of rubbish around the entire park today... I know the weather was good on Sunday but am I being to naive expecting that the park should be clean, especially the kid's areas, on the following day by 5 PM? Why do we pay such high council tax? Surely the need to improve the service offered....
