If walking, you have to walk up Kenilworth Road to get in via Lavender Hall Lane. A small park surrounded by housing estates. Needed to use Google Maps to find a way out to Station Road and get back to Berkswell Station. Katherine's Wood is nearby with some standing stones.

Lovely park, it was quite busy as it was a Saturday afternoon but everyone was very friendly and refreshingly all dogs were under their owners control. Just wish I’d discovered this park sooner I will certainly return to explore a bit more.

I love this park, I take my kids here all the time, it's peaceful and pleasant. People are friendly and great for getting the kids walking around the trails through the woods and around the track back to the playground, which has been recently refurbished, which is great. Parking is limited but I have never had too much trouble. Brilliant park!
