Went there for a birthday party, the hall hire was easy, plenty of parking, and facilities were clean and tidy, if cooking food make sure you take all utensils, cookware and oven gloves with you, staff were excellent and very helpful

I moved in Chelmsford for some time but I never walked around this park before 2019. I am finding it perfect as it seems not to be to busy, is full of friendly pets, lovely dogs for my pug to meet and play with. If you need to play tennis, football, do some outside exercises, run or cycle, that's your to go place around Great Baddow neighbourhood's.

A little tricky to find due to lack of signposting from the main road, but a nice area and although the millennium centre had a members only bar, there was a convenience store in easy walking distance. There was a fluffy little baby moorhen with its parent in the river - nice!
