If you enjoy rugby. Get down here. You will be welcomed. Good standard of rugby, great atmosphere in the clubhouse, before and after matches. Would recommend the superb hot chocolate during cold, miserable wet days. Bar staff work hard for you to enjoy your day,with a smile on their face.

Lovely outdoor space... plenty of room to sit for a picnic, a children's play area. Pokémon stops and gyms. Can chill out and watch cricket, rugby and other sports. There is a clubhouse on the green too.

Honestly all I know is the rugby club meets here. The car park is useful if visiting locally. I don't have a dog. I don't have kid's and I don't play rugby. I hadn't realised the cricket club met here. I thought they had a stadium. So all I've learned today about Coronation Park is from the reviews here. Summing up from what I understand from reviews. There is a large green field. The Rugby and Cricket club meet here. The clubhouse is well equipped and it can be hired. Their is a fenced off area for kids to play with one attraction an old tractor tire. There is a garden bit. I could imagine that the car park would be too small when games are on. Or if hiring the hall and visitors all come with car's. The car park is free. One day I will visit with my camera and take a serious look. Until then Google maps please be less persistent in questioning "How was it at..?"
