Nice place, clean and newish fir a playpark. Some of the apparatus is a little scary for the parents of younger children. Good space.

It’s an ok park, not as well kept as others we’ve been to in edinburgh. The play area is relatively clean, and has a sandpit for the younger kids. The downside to this park though is only on street parking compared to a car park, and we also couldn’t find a toilet.

This is a decent park equipped with playground facilities for children. Very large surroundings with fresh air from all sides. Although some of the grasses need better trimming, the kids are generally happy to play here.
