The sandpit has giant hidden fossils for the kids to discover. There is playground equipment for little kids and older ones. The splashpad might be the best one in London. The cafe sells organic ice creams with allergens identified. There is green space to play ball or frisbee or just sunbathe. I took off 1 star for the absolute filthiest ladies loos I've seen in ages.
If you plan on coming today 23/05/2026 then the splash zone has been broken due to a pump issue. The gents trying to fix it have been pleasant enough, but should really have just said the place is shut until further notice as there are kids running around expecting water fun on such a warm day. I have no doubt this place will be great when working though.
I recently visited Kensington Memorial Park in North Kensington, and it is such a well-maintained and welcoming community space. This park has a wonderful atmosphere, blending beautiful memorial gardens with excellent facilities for all ages. Walking through the quiet garden areas, surrounded by colorful flower beds and mature trees, provided a much-needed moment of calm in the city. The park is famous for its fantastic water play area and playgrounds, making it a local favorite for families. However, there are also plenty of open grassy spaces for a quiet picnic or a casual stroll. The tennis courts and football pitches were buzzing with energy, showing just how much this park is loved by the neighborhood. It’s a perfect example of a hidden local gem that offers something for everyone. Traveler Tips for your visit: • Water Play Area: If you are visiting with children during the summer, the splash pad is one of the best in West London. • Memorial Gardens: Take a moment to explore the formal gardens near the entrance for some beautiful floral photography. • Sports Facilities: The tennis courts are popular, so consider booking in advance if you're looking for a match. • Quiet Corners: Head to the shaded areas under the large trees for a peaceful spot to read or relax. Kensington Memorial Park is a charming, multi-functional space that really captures the local spirit of Kensington. Definitely worth a stop for a relaxing break! 🌳🎾🌷
This park was great, it had a big splash pad with multiple jets etc. There is what looks like a tuck shop but that wasn’t open on the day as it was the start of carnival. It has a park right next to the splash pad with a part for older kids. The younger children can also enjoy a pirate ship, slide and sanded area. Also has a mini trampoline for the little ones. Would recommend this Park, the only issues I can see is although there is seating if it’s real busy you’d have to sit on a ledge around the edge of splash pad. Other than that it will be an enjoyable day for your little ones.
The park is fantastic, offering a variety of amenities including tennis courts, a children's play area, walking paths, a water play zone, picnic tables, and a sandy area with rides. The kids had a wonderful time. One downside was the difficulty in finding a place to sit due to the high number of families with multiple children. While I understand the desire for families to spend time together, it might be beneficial to consider implementing some sort of restriction, such as limiting the number of children per group, to ensure a more enjoyable experience for all park visitors.
