The park was beautiful however the temple has so some grafitti. There were loads of birds. Its huge place, good place to enjoy a walk.

Even though it was Bank Holiday Saturday and we arrived after lunch it wasn't too busy. Found a disabled parking space quite quickly. Lots of different routes to take. Some lovely spots to sit in the shade out of the sun (yes 🌞 on a bank holiday!) Only thing that let it down was the cafe is being refurbished and they had a couple of food/drinks trucks instead. We were hungry when we got back to the car (2.45pm) and were going to get something to eat, but the food truck was packing up 😢. Didn't think that was good for a bank holiday as it was still busy with people. It also said on the website the cafe would be re-opening at the end of May 2026 but from the looks of things it will be longer than that before it is open, so check the website for up to date info.

This Park is one of the most beautiful parks we’ve been to! There is a lovely lake a quiet walk through a small forest, lovely open grass and breathtaking view from top, ideal for a picnic. There is also a Hardwick hall hotel so you can stay in this place for a few days as well! There is a giant play area for older kids and it’s well worth a visit

Amazing free play park with lots of different areas and some interactive bits suitable for all ages. Huge play tower, 2 ziplines and musical parts. Amazing trails through woods and lovely lakes to walk around. Could easily spend the day here. Reasonably priced car park, also equipped with EV chargers which was a bonus. Cafe was currently closed and under construction/refurb but little replacement cafe does the job. Excellent and clean facilities.

We love Hardwick park in my family! Such a lovely place with endlessly nice walks and pretty scenery! Would definitely recommend in autumn as the colours are gorgeous but it's nice all year round! Love the castle elements too and the ducks and swans are very friendly
